Supposedly closing in on a 3 year deal for Edler with a modified NMC. I'm fine with the 3 years even though I doubt he'll still be any good at 36 - it's a good compromise though.
Hopefully when Jimbo can't trade him in 2 years the dude won't blame GIllis for the NMC this time.

To add to that, between $5 million and $5.5 million per season. Doesn't sound too bad.
Here’s the thing, sign Edler. The Swedish Gretzky loves him

Sounds like it’s a done deal with Edler 5.5 million over three years. Modified NMC for the first two years. If this is true that’s a good job by Elmer.
Keep Gardiner the fuck away from here hopefully too

I like Gardiner's game more than Edler's overall, but Gardiner is getting $7-$8 million not $5.5 so it's apples to oranges. With Hughes and Elder taking most of the left side minutes I'm not sure there's room for Gardiner as well. Juolevi could make some noise there too.
Still lots of time for Jimbo to overpay a guy like Myers given he's a right shot, especially if the rumours Tanev is available are true.

Especially since it's Edler at 3 years and Garnder and Myers will be aiming for 5+ years..
If this is how it shakes out, AWESOME contract for JB, amd good on Edler!!!
The 'Chain of Command' is the chain I am going to beat you with until you understand I am in charge.
Friedman now reporting it might be a 4 year deal - if so it changes the deal for me. 4 years is too long for Edler, he's already slow and injury prone so what do you expect him to be at 37?
I guess if the cap hit is low enough it's ok, but he should not get 4 years. Then again, Jimbo gave a 33 year old Jay Beagle a 4 year deal and he just scored 3 goals in his first 57 games with the team, so what could go wrong?
It's just one of likely a few moves to come, so perhaps Jimbo will do something else to put this into a better context.
- Edler
- Hughes
- Hutton
- Juolevi
- Tryamkin (rumours he wants to come back)
- Brisebios
- Teves
- Sautner
For next season, trade Hutton now and promote Juolevi? Keep Hutton and store Juolevi in Utica?
With how thin the right side is, the rumours of trading Tanev are bogus
Tanev
Stecher
Schenn
Biega
Woo
Rafferty
Chatfield

Gardiner and Myers will be aiming for seven years not five.
Yep and they will likely get it. I'd be shocked if Jimbo isn't right in there offering huge money to both.
He’d better not be. These guys are both worse players than Edler. They could end up being this summer’s Eriksson and Lucic. Take the cheque book away for anything longer than three years Francesco.
“I don’t care what you and some other poster were talking about”
So this change of heart resigning Edler could be a sign of the Canucks not liking their chances with UFA D this summer.

Ya, well, every ones getting into the act today...

Todd Diamond, Nikita Tryamkin's agent, just now with @DonnieandTheMoj offered a bit of an update on Tryamkin..
- Today better than 50% chance he returns to #Canucks
- Feels much better about current #Canucks team than the one he left
- His KHL contract expires April 30 2020
