Well an extra $5M hit the market, and our top dman is gone, at least Benning stood his ground on no NMC.Rick Dhaliwal:
Doesn’t sound like the #Canucks and Alexander Edler will get a deal done.
Looks like 1 of the best defenseman in franchise history could be hitting the market.

Re: Canucks Contracts
AND Edler is going to be a UFA.
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

Re: Canucks Contracts
Much can happen between now and July 1st.
The objective here is to improve the defence for next year and beyond. If this means moving on from Edler, so be it, but I don’t believe anything until it’s official.

Freakin game changer!
I admit I'm surprised. At the end of the day, you cannot blame Eddy for goin for the home run. Shit, I would.
No kidding, bet he can go out and get 7 for 4yrs.
Benning must already have a plan. Now it's tense.
Hopefully not Zaitsev. Not good enough.

Re: Canucks Contracts
IF true, then Tryamkin is coming back in 2020, I see why Zaitsev is a target - Russian facts.

Re: Canucks Contracts
Yep. I imagine both sides are comfortable with allowing Edler to interview with other teams once the window opens. Gives him a chance to see if he can get a better deal elsewhere. I don't imagine he'll find many takers on the Expansion Draft trade protection, and if he does, is it a better situation than what the Canucks are offering (stability and community). He's not getting 8-years, so there's not much incentive to sign before July 1.BladesofSteel wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 9:49 am Much can happen between now and July 1st.

Even someone as dumbass as Dubas can see this is a horrible contract.
I wouldn't even take this guy if it was just for the money.
My Gawd, we would have to give something to TO in a trade.

Re: Canucks Contracts
Someone will go long on Edler. At least for 5 I'd bet
If you need air...call it in
Re: Canucks Contracts
As opposed to Edler re-signing?

Re: Canucks Contracts
If Elmer values his job he will stay the fuck away from
Zaitsev. There’s no indication Tryamkin will come back. I’d rather see them trade his rights.

His agent was on 650, saying he was coming back.... I’d say that’s a pretty good indication.Blob Mckenzie wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 12:22 pmIf Elmer values his job he will stay the fuck away from

Re: Canucks Contracts
Did he? Or did his agent say they were talking with the Canucks and then the local media jumped all over it. I have yet to see any comments written anywhere that is as direct to what you wrote.Richardstroker69 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 17, 2019 12:56 pmHis agent was on 650, saying he was coming back....
