pretty good deal for Bo, glad it wasn't a bridge deal
dunno about Boeser but if Pettersson can put on some weight and muscle, he'd be a good shot at Calder
them dangles though...that horrific Euro defending though haha

This is who I think will challenge for the calder. keller, and mcavoy are probably who I think have the best shot, and are probably being said to be favs as of now.I have them followed by boeser. Theres also ho-sang, Chabot and barzal(if barzal makes the team).
I think Patrick, Jost and Hischier will have mediocre rookie seasons, and a player like strome wont make their team

Bo will earn every penny of his contract, even if he may not put up the points

his best comparable was wennberg. hes getting 600k more because he will become the face of the team, the captain, can play solid d as well, and put up similar points to wennberg ,a player on a great offensive team
people complaining either hate the canucks, or are people who don't know shit

With Nolan Patrick I doubt he even plays a full season this year...guy is injury prone from the start but things could change.
I am totally fine with bo's contract since he will be the face of the team and pretty much will play in every key situation possible.

A fair contract for Bo. Benning showed him the money today.

people complaining either hate the canucks, or are people who don't know shit | Bo being the scoring two way centre deserves that kind of money. Fucking Jeff Patterson, guys from Canucks army....whole bunch of those 1040 people salty about it.

of course 1040 is salty about it. they were running that bo was signing a bridge deal for about 2 weeks and were complaining about that. some of them even suggested a contract around this current one would be better. they are just shitting on the team because they lost the rights.
on top of that think of all the extra work botchford has now with blocking people on twitter because he was wrong, and cant handle the fact hes an idiot

Same goes with Jeff Patterson...lol he reported how Goldobin changed numbers from 82 to 77 and he asked a vet about it and he said it's ballsy?

once 650 got the rights and went live 1040 just a bunch of salty fuck tards on there now....I love it haha. Finally have another option to listen to Sat and the boys over at 650 compared listening to those clowns on 1040 aka bro jake.
Bro jake is by far the worst on 1040 I cannot stand his bs and has 0 sports knowledge its beyond laughable...

You should always compare to the mean or the median, not a good or bad contract.
I'm glad Bo is signed, not good for any party historically when a player misses training camp because of a contract dispute.

He did the same thing when he got traded from Dallas to Boston and it took him a bit to earn that contract. Also a lot of players have issues playing from the Eastern Conference to the West. Hopefully now that he knows the teams he will playing against, a coach that will let him play, he can learn to adjust. The same goes for Gudbranson.

Botch blocked me because I said the Provies could use a proofread after he released a Provies filled with dozens of spelling errors, grammatical errors, incorrect player references, etc. Guy has the thinnest fucking skin.

| Benning: 'We're rebuilding the organization; That's what we're doing' - Video - TSN
good interview. but I think they should have gave benning the questions prior, hes pretty bad with interviews that require him to think. he really shows hes looking for an answer or a word
he has some good points about prospects, depth, and adds ganger might play with the sedins

Fuck those players in the league like Marchand and Shawn Thornton for the way they disrespected and insulted the Sedins with their actions and mean words. Ratface and Shitface don't even have 10 percent of the class and character like Henrik and Daniel.
When the Sedins retire one day, the NHL will lose two of the most underrated star players in the league.

Gonna miss them when they retire. I still remember Couture congratulating Henrik on the 1000 points before a faceoff.
