I think Weber is an easy sign. He is RFA with . 860 k salary. Tell him we will sign you to one year deal for 1.2 mil for one year then we extend you during the year for a proper NHL contract seeing Bieksa Hamhuis come off the books at the end of the year

Even at 1.2 the nucks have 5 more guys to sign or bring up for 800k - 4.8 million depending on what the cap does.
I'm sure Benning is aware of this and I'm sure he has a plan, it will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Moving miller would go a long way if lack can cement the starting role this postseason.

If they can't sign a player for 1. 2 that sparks their PP, they they will be having bigger issues.

They would be better served moving a player or two


BTW I've seen Millers wife act. He should not be limiting his locations to California only , her career could be over very soon.

I'm thinking there will be a similar post if we some how manage to get past the flames and meet/beat Anaheim in the 2nd round. Would love to beat Kesler after the poop he's said about the Canucks.

I think that's the point I was making with the two recent deals, regardless of what the value is they have created a bigger issue.

Imo Weber is a guy they should be ensuring they resign but I think the writing is on the wall.

Clendenning will be waiver eligible for next season so unless I am mistaken I believe he has already been given a spot. Bieksa is really the only realistic moving piece on Defense and he is big part of the leadership core and has a ntc. Some might feel Hamhuis is another option but I don't buy it, he is still one of the best defenders on the team.

I wonder how Matthias/Weber/Richardson feel about these extensions, do they wonder if it means there is no room for them?
I know the stock answer is I don't worry about any of that stuff but I imagine it goes through there heads.

I don't think Jim Benning cares about how they feel, it's a tough business to manage the cap...hard decisions have to be made.

I am sure JB or any other GM facing Cap issues will figure them out. I am sure we will see Weber here next year.

No doubt, the cap implications is a bi.tch but also very entertaining for me at least to ponder.

I certainly hope so, he has been an excellent addition to the PP and hasn't looked out of place getting regular minutes with Hamhuis.

Joseph Labate is on the Comets roster today.... i didn't even hear about him signing with the nucks.

would like to see subban and McNally signed as well. Both are solid Offensive defensemen that we're currently lacking!

15 year career...probably had enough of the daily grind. Made just over 26 million dollars in his career, hopefully he saved some of it.

It's a $120 bottle. Hopefully it pairs well with McDonalds.

Oddly, not a word. But then again, there was no game day skate. Probably won't see anything until warm up.

He might be on a ahl PTO, I believe Hutton is in the same situation.
