I see the opposite . I see a guy who is tied for fifth in goals who costs very little and can play on any line at any spot .

Granlund has played all 34 games is on pace for 13 goals 33 pts and cost 1.4 mil. Why do you want him gone?

Because of the bigger picture.

I would imagine it was brought to his attention. Billion dollar companies usually don't want Elmer Fudd as their spokes person.

I disagree. Doesn’t matter if the guys a smooth talker and looks good on camera, pretty irrelevant to the job really.

I don't see Granlund being here after TDL. He would be a good depth player for a team trying to make a run in playoffs.
- Reubenkincade

No he wouldn't.... he's not even a good depth player on this bottom feeder.

I see it as the Canucks having an even cheaper version of him, in Motte, another no-eventful, immovable player like him in Erickson and another player similar too him defensively, now playing in Utica. Even Gaudette is somewhat similar.
Far too many of the same types of players in this organization.

Buffalo would actually be a nice landing spot for Sutter. Wonder if he'd go there?

With Berglund suspended, this makes a lot of sense.

You can disagree all you want but Canucks ownership are giving Benning minimal camera coverage.

I am not saying he is getting fired they are just hiding him from public view.

The fact that you don't know that I knew your question was rhetorical and answered it anyways. You actually thought you were being funny. Says a lot about you Vinty

Again it is only my opinion but I think they hang onto a guy that is going to score 10 + goals and costs 1.5 mil

Except for that Granlund produces. Not like the other guys you mentioned or just anyone can produce at a nhl level. He’s one of the few guys we have that can play up and down the lineup

Good. WHo cares. Doesn’t take away from his ability to manage the team.

Reading the last paragraph on this site, makes me think Flyers want Gudbranson.

Flyers GM determining which areas need upgrading
Sam Carchidi of the Philadelphia Inquirer: Philadelphia Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher doesn’t want to make a trade for the sake of making a trade, but he does realize that ownership wants something done, and sooner than later.

Teams also realize this.


Fletcher is still learning the organization and determining what areas need upgrading.

Some potential defensemen that could be available: Colton Parayko, Alex Pietrangelo, and Jake Muzzin.

Some potential goalies include Jimmy Howard and Sergei Bobrovsky.

Up front Vladimir Tarasenko and Charlie Coyle could be available.

It could take $9 to $10 million per season to re-sign Bobrovsky. Spending that money on a sniper may be a better idea, especially with Carter Hart getting closer.

Their defense has struggled and Fletcher may be looking to add a ‘veteran, big-body defenseman.’

Really no one from management has been on camera much lately. This media doesn't have much to write about that the team isn't the worst in history right now.

Ryan Johnson does weekly spots on SN650 I don't listen to the 1040 so I don't know if he does weekly spots there.

I mean that character is a idiot... pretty sure that’s the whole point of him. But I guess if you just mean the voice sure. I can’t disassociate how dumb he is from the voice. Maybe more of a porky pig
