That’s what happens when you only draft Sauve and Connauton in the first 3 rounds of 6 drafts.

Blame Benning

Let’s revisit this in a few years after Benning has had 6 drafts like Gillis.

And they are worse players too. But hey let’s give them more annual salary and seven years to take them to 36. Makes tons of sense. Hopefully Frank takes the cheque book away If this is how Elmer plans to spend his cap space.
Not to mention there's no guarantee the Canucks can land either of these guys. Sure, we can swap out Edler for Gardiner/Myers, but it may not happen. Then what? There may be a boost from Hughes if he sticks, but it may not be a defensive improvement. Sign Edler for the minimum term you can get away with - maybe it's crazy long, we don't know - AND try to sign one of these FA D-men.

He’s coming up on six drafts , six years of trading and six UFA seasons as we speak.

Yes because we know for a fact that is what Jimmy wants to give them. :look:

So elder wants term and a NTC or he’ll walk?

That’s the bargaining position? Then I say we pull a trump and raise tariffs on steel. Are there any players left from the 2011 team that want to throw a fuck into the club on the way out?

I’m beginning to wonder when the rest of the league were calling the Canucks a bunch of assholes. Maybe they were right.

(Not the good kind of assholes doc)

Free Edler, addition by subtraction.

Time to move on from him.

Sounds a bit like acknowledgement of Trump being politically effective on your part...

How do you feel about edibles?

I’m a huge pen guy right now. I’m curious as to how it compares to the effect of the edibles. Is it similar to shrooms?

I usually eat it when I'm all fucked up sick with flus and colds. I make weed cookies which kick your ass for like 4 hours then you pass out for straight 8.

The gummies you buy from the stores seem to be different potencies which makes dosing the shits. Maybe legal ones will be better with consistency

And no to the shrooms comparable. Its just baked like smoking but for longer and your whole body is baked not just your dome

I Think I meant it as if Edler wants to be a dick then Benning should be a bigger dick.

As for trump, i never argued that trump isn’t
good at being a dick.
