It’s almost like other GMs think they can take Elmer out to the woodshed and put a beatin on him.
With Miller your getting a player who's already been traded twice and who's work ethic has been questioned.
And it would avoid signing Tyler Myers(Gudbranson 2.0) to a expensive long-term deal

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
4 million on a bottom pairing dman is idiotic, he was not good when having to play top 4 minutes. Myers is for sure a number 4 guy and is right handed. Hutton has been shopped for the last 2 years he doesn’t have any trade value cause he’s an overpaid bottom pairing guy, he should be making 2million (think Matt benning’s contract). They won’t qualify him but I’m guessing they’ll offer him a contract in that 2 million range. If he doesn’t take it grab benn for a little more (benn is a better dman and actually puts up decent points 5v5).Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 5:08 pmSo you would rather spend 56 million on Myers and/or Gardiner than 4 on Hutton?RoyalDude wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 4:47 pmAnd that’s why you are Blob.

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
8 million a year on matching 7 year deals for number 4 d men Myers and Gardiner is smart but a one year deal for 4 million a botton pairing guy in Hutton is dumb. Only on this board.

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
Not yet. I’m just laughing at the gaggle of mouth breathers who would want these two slugs at matching 56 million dollar contracts. I guess you guys just want to see the next GM hamstringed as much as possible. No 2021 1st and a pile of poison pill contracts.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 7:15 pmWait did Benning already sign Myers?

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
We should wait until July 1 before complaining about Myers' deal. It is still a rumor at this stage.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 7:09 pm 8 million a year on matching 7 year deals for number 4 d men Myers and Gardiner is smart but a one year deal for 4 million a botton pairing guy in Hutton is dumb.

Hutton's situation is different. If the Canucks qualify him and Hutton files for arbitration, his salary will easily be over $4m which the Canucks have no choice but to accept. It is still early. JB might still sign Hutton to a more reasonable contract, around $3m instead of $4m.

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
I’m not a big fan of Hutton. He’s about a 3 million dollar player. That said Myers and Gardiner are going to get paid and neither them is better than a #4. Signing either of them to the rumoured contracts would be Eriksson bad.Jovocop wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 7:20 pmWe should wait until July 1 before complaining about Myers' deal.

Barrie. Not even a question. If the rumours are true he'll be signing on as a ufa next summer so no asset heading out is better

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
Hard to keep up with what’s going on around here, but I don’t have too much of an issue with losing Hutton. Yes, the D is a tire fire and needs all the help it can get, and yes Jimbo should have foreseen this at last year’s trade deadline when lesser D like Ben Lovejoy was traded for a 3rd and Connor Carrick, Adam Macquaid for a 4th, 7th and a prospect, Del Zotto for a 6th, but Jimbo gonna Jimbo when it comes to asset management. I agree $4 million is too much for Hutton - as per usual it would have been nice to get something for him but that ship may have sailed.
That said, if Jimbo takes this $4 million savings and includes it in a massive deal for Myers at around $7 million per my opinion will change quickly. Get Colin Miller and sign Jake Gardiner for $7 million a season if you need a Dman, at least then you’d really upgrade the D.

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
I would agree, but I figure Jimbo must have something in mind to get Loui’s deal off the books. Perhaps he retires or there’s already a trade in the works? His deal is only $13 million in real cash after July 1 so it’s not as bad as it seems.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 8:07 pmIf they throw money around like idiots again this summer, Vancouver won’t have anything left come July 1, 2020.Uncle dans leg wrote: ↑Mon Jun 24, 2019 8:04 pmBarrie.

Trade one of a Tanev or Sutter as well, recoup an asset and some cap space and perhaps the deal makes sense.

Re: Canucks 2019-2020 line-up
Eriksson should be gone by october so theres some coin. They arent going to qualify hutton so that hit is gone as well now. Still lots of wiggle room but sure hope there isnt a mega burden contract handed to myers
