Hopefully Benning buyouts those stupid contracts the Canucks have to give the young core some actual help and a chance to win.

The Athletic did a deep dive into the buyouts and came to the conclusion only Virtanen made sense as a buyout, big cap relief... Holtby was a candidate too BUT significant recapture in the following year.

The rest of them it wasn’t worth it, burying them in the minors is the answer. I’m taking about Roussel and Eriksson.

I feel there will be a buyer for teams who's feeling the covid hit and maybe don't want to spend so much money but need to meet the cap floor.

Pay louie 3 mil (after the SB paid by canucks) and then have a 6 mil cap hit.

JB needs some luck.

Basically void Jake's contract. Louie / Beagle retires.

The difference is most of those players traded were on LITR so they just sat as empty cap space. Loui unfortunately has been extremely durable during his tenure as a Canuck lol.

This upcoming season is essentially a write off from a roster perspective. Won't get out from under those bad contracts until after next season.

^Yup. What JB was talking about 2 years from contending. Basically need to get away from those contracts.

At least we're getting out of Baerschti's $2.2M and Spooners $1M hits.

Still got Lu's.

But when JB talked about we don't have the info they have.

Maybe it's due to Ferland and Beagle retiring due to injury. Louie retiring.

If that does happen, JB should pull a Gillis and throw max at Ovie. lol

It's not a complete write off but yeah. A few contracts end this year but that money will be used for Hughes and Petey's new contracts.
Loui and Lou's recapture will be done next year so 1 more year before GMJB can overpay for more plugs.

I really feel bad for Loui and Baerts. but then again not cause they get paid well.

Don't forget Sutter's $4.375M contract is over now. Not sure if Canucks will give him a new offer. My guess is yes since he is a center that is important on the PK and JB loves to overpay.

Yes.. nothing crazy happened this year. Makes for boring TV but at least we’re still top 10.

Habs are already leading 2-0.


Slow start expected for Winnipeg with over 7 days of rest.

Wow, Scheifele had a huge hit on Evans.

Big open ice hit near the Habs’ net.

Paramedics are on the ice now.

Respect for Ehlers after Scheifele’s reckless hit in Evans.

Ehlers made sure other players did not land on top of Evans when the guy was on the ice injured.

This is exactly what the NHL wants, their guy even sells hats promoting it. Don't expect much of a punishment fitting for the hit.

Grunland and Marky tries to protect Philip Larsen. Marky even went as far as blocking the fans from taking pictures.
