Based on that list, probably two years @ 6 point something.

Benning will probably give him 4 years.

It won't be NTC's that JB leaves as a hangover for his successor. It will be the buyouts.

You'd be wrong , take off the homer glasses. In what universe do you think it makes any sense to pay a 33 yr old d man 5 to 6 mil a year on a multi year deal at the developmental stage this team is at? I bet you were one of the guys desperately trying to hang on to the sedins because you know we just won't be able to replace their offense. Edler at three mil for 2 years... ok maybe. Edler at 6 mil....(frank) that get an asset and say goodbye

are the Homer glasses sold beside the Hater glasses? in here it is handy to have both

i disagree, and i appreciate people who want to be Canucks , somewhere like OEL's 6 per is fine and maybe we get him in the low 5's with a limited no trade for an extra year

Just crushed two Orange Julius hotdogs while waiting for the gift wrappers to wrap my wife's presents. I'm thinking another entertaining close game, not sure they can beat a deep Jets team but should be a good game.

Nothing to do with hate....its about doing the right things at the right times for the good of the franchise.

If we are going to pay market and include an ntc, I hope it is 1 year at a time sweet...

Is there a real thing as a good hot dog? Do you want me to post the video of how they are made?

you also have to assess the player in question , his role and where he fits in the hierarchy of the team , and Edler is a good player , a good team mate , and this team is closer to making strides then many believe imo , so a veteran presence is needed right now as we grow this team into a contender , just saying he is 33 , run for the hills is naive and shortsighted , Chelios played good hockey into his 40's , Hainsey is playing a ton on the Leafs at 37, so ageing is not predictable for everyone the same

How do you trade someone who has a NTC and is unwilling to waive.

I did assess these things, and I've never been much of a fan. Id rather get an asset then pay him 6 mil. He's no leader , has a sulky female dog . Just because he's the best bad apple we have doesn't mean we should keep it. Look what steps the young guys took when they have been gifted the cherry offensive starts and pp time the sedins got. If Edler is off this roster then someone else is going to step up or sign someone else. 6 mil for a 33 yr old is just plain stupid. I can throw names and contracts up all day too , but stats don't lie . Players are all declining assets after 30. This team does not need more years of Edler at 6 mil per. Total (frank)ing anchor moving forward

If you stayed at Orange Julius you would have a pretty decent pension by now. You continue to do nothing but disappoint me.
