lol last time I checked Beagle ain't making top 6 money but I hear you on cap management but that technically wasn't the point. There is no reason you can't have both players on the club.

3m isn't bottom line money, top 9, borderline top 6 money. If like vantel says, he's only going ri play 3 years and then retire, it pushes his actual salary up to 3.5m per.
If bo is our 3lc it doesn't leave room for the other guys

*executive board room*

*three old white dudes in suits that cost 30k are sitting at a table, running their fingers through their hair and rubbing their eyes in exhaustion. One of them undoes his tie*

"Cable ratings and subscriptions keep falling. What can we do?!"

"Those damn kids only want to do the Internet where they can play their damn Fork Fite!"

"We need to turn it around but how? What do those milldenials want? What will get them back?"

"Follow me here guys! *the two other men look intently at the third*
They like avocados. *the other two men nod in agreement*
Avacados are...? Green! *the other men nod again*
So what if we made the green hockey team play the blue and green hockey team?! There is no way ratings wouldn't rebound!"

*and all three tv executives lived happily ever after reading the newspaper*

Agreed they do look worse this year...as does Eriksson. Actually didn't mind MDZ last year but I'm betting he's pissy for being scratched and I can't blame him. Our D is so bad technically he should be in our top 4.

4-1 Wild.

Boeser scores.

That's good because after the runaround I've gotten from Shaw cable the past 4 weeks they can take the centre ice package and shove it up their assess!!!!

What I really don't understand is that Roussel Sutter Virtanen have been really bad as a line.

Leipsic over 6 games has shown he's less then capable of playing in a top 6 role.

Granlund at least has shown a more complete game but not at center.

Gaudette was holding his own at center.

Why stack the second line and give Bo nothing to play with.

No curing that defence.

What the hell kind of a 4th line is that?

Rick D said that canucks won’t move Tanev as they want him with Quinn. Also, Edler will NOT waive his NMC. (frank) sakes

I’ve been a Tanev fan for years, but I’ll just say it...He doesn’t look as smooth as he has in the past.

he’s a relatively skinny guy who blocks a lot of shots and has taken a decent amount of hits since he’s willing to take a hit to make the right play.

I think he’s past his peak. But sadly they have no one to replace him with.

Someone convince him that he can go somewhere for 4 months. Try for a cup then re-sign with van in the summer

Game Day!

It's all about Tim Schaller and Adam Gaudette tonight, as the Canucks look to right the ship while Edler & Tanev remain on the sidelines...

Isn’t he basically making the same money as Baertschi, who minivan notes was a legit (though lower end) second line player? To me that sounds like getting paid top 6 money
