I cant believe Matt Murray got 6.25mil/yr. I hope Markstrom gets something similar from whichever team he goes to

if he signs for like 5/5 or 6/4 I think we fucked up | It's possible though if he held out too long and ran out of options right? think GMJB wanted to get it done right off the bat, so if marky said he wants to weigh his options GMJB's making the offer to holtby

I find it funny everyone is getting pissed off with Benning for not making moves when people have been pissed at him for making moves in the past. I think the moves he hasn't made are the moves he should of so that works out in my books.

6x6 for Marky
decent but not for the Canucks with Demko on the wings and expansion draft coming up.

I'm glad Hotlby is only signed for 2 years. That'll leave breathing room come Petey Hughes and Boeser(if he's still around) when their contracts are up. Marky wanting term wouldve fucked us in a few years

6 x 6 is too much for us with a flat cap. I could see giving him 6 mil if it was for 2 years, but he would have never taken that.

Everyone's knee jerk reaction on the other websites was amusing.
"OMFG what a downgrade! Fire Benning!"
"Holtby sucks I'm not watching Canucks next year!"
"Lundqvist only got $1.5m wtf our team is doomed!" |

I like that this car forum actually has more sensible Canucks fans than the dedicated sports boards lol ...
6x6 is way too much and depending on Demko's development we could have been strapped with another Luongo/Schneider situation.

Really? The comments on the sportsnet article were highly complimentary... even one guy said “I’ll use any excuse to throw Benning under the bus but even I like this move”

I only wish we could've offloaded a few bad contracts for OEL. If he pulled that off, he would've been a god. Cause what are we going to do now to get rid off Loui and/or Sutter?

If only OEL can reconsider his self imposed deadline of October 9th to be traded. I think Arizona GM would still listen to Benning’s
Offers.
Ger rid of that Swedish meatball, Benning!!

I love Markstrom, but not for 6x6. Have to spend the money elsewhere. Holtby saves us $1.7 million annually over the next two years compared to Markstrom. Valuable money that can maybe re-sign Tanev??

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk | the deadline didnt mean anything really...the hold up was the prospect involved...ARZ wanted Demko/Podko/Hoglander (i think)...and we werent willing to give up either so they can remove the deadline and keep negotiating but means no difference if we aren't giving up those 3 guys

OEL said he won't move after today. He has NTC and instituted the deadline. So the deal is likely dead in the water.

The point is that if the deadline didnt exist, things could still happen now or going forward. I don't know why this needs to be argued. Free agency changes the landscape.
They don't have the motivation to deal him this season? |

Anyone know why the Oilers were out on Markstrom? They could use a steady goalie.
