Imagine if they did that to Sutter or Beagle or Roussel or Eriksson. You’d be crushed.

We all knew it was going to be one of Sbisa, Gaunce, or Granlund.Strangelove wrote: ↑Wed May 03, 2017 4:02 pmBlob Mckenzie wrote:If you don't want to lose cheap, young and improving Gaunce there's a certain 3rd line centre / winger who gets forcefed icetime , is extremely soft and razor thin , overpaid but has a famous last name that could easily be made available.

I know I'm in the minority on this one... but I don't want to lose young Gaunce.
I can see him developing into a solid 3rd line centre eventually.![]()
I'd rather lose Gaunce!
Yeahno, no fan in history has been as much in love with a player as you are with Troy Stecher...Doyle Hargraves wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 5:35 pmImagine if they did that to Sutter or Beagle or Roussel or Eriksson. You’d be crushed.![]()

Tyler Myers is apparently taking on the Tanev 'dad' role. Virtanen works out with him every morning in Kelowna: 'he treats me like his son'
Every contract I have seen signed this off season has been weighted like that. It's the going thing...Madcombinepilot wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 3:30 pm
What’s this got to do with the owner?? He pays the same in the end.
Assuming LTIR for Ferland, a safe bet at this stage, there could still be room to squeeze in a Leivo and a Fantenburg, or their equivalent. I would let the prospective depth guys still looking for work to sweat it out a little longer and drive a really hard bargain if I were making the big Benning bucks.Curmudgeon wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 3:29 pm Virtanen's deal is pretty fair for both parties. If Benning can sign a decent veteran RHD on a short term deal I'd say he's had a very good off season.

Man, Tryamkin would toss Tkachuk around like a rag doll.Curmudgeon wrote: ↑Wed Oct 21, 2020 7:35 am Yes! Peters' revenge on the Flames is turning Tryamkin into a reliable, physical defensive dman. Let's hope. Would be interesting to see Tkachuk and Tryamkin developing a hate-on for each other.
Nice to see Jake sign a team friendly contract. I too thought he would get $3M just like McCann. Deep inside, I think Jake likes playing for his hometown and wants to be a part of this team, so he settled. I'd take him over Toffi @ $4M and Brock @ $6M any day. Sounds like he's working out with Myers in Kelowna, which is great. Get out of town and away from the distractions to focus on being in top shape. Jake seems like the little bro on the team, even though he has been around for a few years now. Sometimes he seems a bit hesitant, like he feels he's afraid to make a mistake or that he's just one of the supporting guys. I think that will change with confidence and maturity, once he realizes what he can do.Cherry Picker wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 10:57 am Nice job Benning.
I think he would have gotten around 3m if it had gone to arbitration.

BDubs the Nucks will be contenders for ref next decade. Petey and Hughes are superstars plus we got a good young core built around them in every position with a good mix of solid veteran leadership. Doyle better hop on the Benning Train now to avoid any further embarrassment to his questionable reputationThe Brown Wizard wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2020 6:25 amTodd Bersnoozi wrote: ↑Thu Oct 22, 2020 9:10 pm.

Jake is pretty close to a waiver wire level player while the other 2 were top line wingers on a contender. Not sure about your reasoning on that one
Oh and before Doyle rocks up and whips his depends undergarment at me over calling the canucks a contender...when you KO the champs then follow it up by pushing the top seed in your conference to 7 you are now a contender
