Richardson is a solid 4th liner that is paid appropriately for what he does. Pretty sure that's all he was getting at.

Richardson at 1.25 million is much greater than Beagle at 3 million. This is where the owner doesn't help Benning out by blindly allowing him to spend without recourse.

UFA’s arent coming here unless we overpay. Maybe now that we have EP

Pearson has two more years. Benning loves his junk players for some reason?
- LeftCoaster

I am actually surprised that Aquaman keeps letting Benji spend his money on garage sale junk.

I'm not saying Richardson turns the Canucks into a playoff team, but $10m for your 4th line doesn't sound like a recipe for success.

And that's a good thing. Signing in demand UFA's shouldn't be the priority right now. Keep building and when the time comes UFA's will be more inclined to sign with a team on the rise.

Think Stamkos & Tavares. One signed in his home town, the other didn't.

Why do you need a UFA fourth line faceoff guy? Go get one in the AHL.

If his head is busted and he can't get back to form that should bring down the price of his contract

I asked him on twitter if he was going to allow Benning to waste his families money if it'd be possible to send some my way

No response lol.

I think brain science is an actual thing though.

It's like when someone asks a stupid question and you reply "does the Pope poop in the woods"?

Spooner/Pearson/Schaller are only one more year, no big deal. I think Benning will try and get Boeser on a bridge deal so that Pettersson is the first guy to sign the "big deal", setting the baseline for $ on the team.

But to your point, if they plan on trying to land a big UFA this off season, they will be in trouble.

I predict
Edler 3 x 6million NTC
Myers 5 x 8 million NTC
Ferland 5 x 7 million NTC

Virtanen traded for a 2nd for ferlands rights

Goldobin traded for a 4th
Pouliot, granlund walk

Boeser, Motte, Demko, Hutton resigned.
Schaller buried, Sutter bought out.

Leivo Petey Boeser
Baertschi Horvat Ferland
Pearson Gaudette Eriksson
Roussel Beagle Motte
Spooner

Edler Myers
Hughes Tanev
Hutton Stetcher

Bottom 5 finish again with no cap room.

Edit. (frank), forgot about Eriksson again. Maybe spooner waived as well and him on the 4th?

The truth is, is that the Canucks are still a hot mess at the NHL level but they've got three good young player and ZERO good veteran top six players.
