Probably and take Bingo with you and ditch him somewhere very remote without wifi.

NFL has no players arrested in calendar month for the 1st time since 2009.
I guess that's something to be happy about.

All you need is rope and a towing hitch.

If need be Benning will trade players, but don't expect great value in them. If higgins is worth a 3rd usually think a 4th and maybe adding a 6th/7th, at this time of year, kind of deals to take place.

My drunken rant....

Every team needs a Sbisa. Vantel, don't give into Nucker and the other kids rants. He is a a physical beast. Yes, he (frank)s up all the time but he is one of 2 players that makes the other team accountable. Guys, if you don't understand the need for grit in your lineup (frank)off and play tennis

- CanuckDon


I think Benning views Sbisa as a Ference-type player. He has good skating abilities and is physical which should help him defend, he just needs to simplify things in his head and really be as basic as possible, and play under 15 per night a la Ference.

...I'm curious what it is you think Tim Murray did in Buffalo... Or the folks in Toronto....

Courage? In TO? There's no courage there. That is a group of guys trying to keep the natives calm.

I'm looking forward to the inevitable freak-out when the remaining cuts are made. The mass hysteria and echoes of 'Benning sucks' should be quite entertaining.

Should be good. I'm looking forward to watching Hamhuis fall down on easy 2 on 1's while we pay him the bargain wage of 4.5 per year.

It's going to happen either way, I think. I don't know how much success one can expect with this group.

To me, the question is all about the guy who will be shipping those veterans out. Do you trust Benning to make those trades?

- BINGO!


You don't need a marching band to take out the garbage. Just take it out and get it over with. If the return isn’t that great then so what. It's the draft position that really is going to make the difference to this rebuilding team. Not trades.

All about maximizing return on assets. You can't just dump guys for nothing and expect to have sustainable success in the long run.

Any links for a WD post game presser? Trying to figure out what Murph is talking about.

Yes, McCann can have 9 NHL games. But will #Canucks waive player from roster, if necessary, to get 9 games for a 19 yo?

Put Bickell on the 4th line with Prust and Dorsett. Move Sutter to the Sedin line and turn Hank into the winger. Horvat can carry Vrbata on the 2nd line with Virtanen. McCann can centre third line with Hansen and Gaunce. Bundle up Burrows and Vey/Higgins and get them the hell out of here.

We can bundle up Hammer and Edler at TDL.

Problems solved.

Verigo issues, doubtful anyone would take him off waivers and pay 4mil for possibly nothing.
