hordichuck and rypien are interchangeable with rypien having more offensive upsides

gillis is pretty much going through with what he said that we need players who can contribute as well as be hard to play against on 3rd and 4th lines

4th line will probably be bolduc, rypien, with glass and desbien switching it up. That's what I'd like to see at least.

The reason more then likely is that no one expected Alberts to setup like he did in the preseason and with making 500k less that gives us room to sign say Morrison for the league min if he's willing to take that.

500mill less? :P

i think we all liked the growth of SOB, and also his passion -- from being just a penalty taking goon, to turning into a pretty solid hockey player.

The 6th dman spot was SOB's to lose. He didn't do anything in the preseason while Alberts showed how well he can play. SOB knew what he needed to do (be aggressive and be a presence on the ice) but he didn't do it.

O'brien & Hordi cut from lineup.
This is getting good!!

A little late to make the move to dump Hordi and O'brien waiver is a no brainer since Albert was absolutely gunning for his spot which he did.

I'm liking how the Canucks brass is getting rid of all the dead weight and useless players.
Let the young prospects shine and were gonna have a sick good team this year.

I don't want to see them sign Morrisson or Shaefer. Let Tambi have a shot he deserves it plus if he makes the team, remember his dad is GM of the oilers. Could be some thank you favors in the form of a trade at the trading deadline. Who knows..

That was one of the main factors behind it.

AV already said that their play during the pre-season + cap hit had a big factor in their decisions on who gets cut today.

I believe we are, but not by much probably around ~500K or so.

SOB was not worth 1.6M, at most a 1M player.

i think all this shit about the nucks being over the cap is all BS anyways, because no one saying "they are 3+ million over the cap" is taking into account that both Salo and Burrows are gonna be on LTI for at least a month, thats like 1 million per month off the cap pretty much

There is no rush to get under the cap like you said. But sooner or later something has to give.

I don't think the cap works like that.

My understanding of the cap was that the players average salary will work against the cap if he is in the line-up. This does not mean that he gets X taken off if he is on LTIR because he plays less and therefore is less against the cap.

I thought it was when the player returns, his full cap hit will come into effect but remain dormant if he is injured.
