There was no Fleury for half. Vegas was trying to dump him with no retention with the idea that ANOTHER team would retain the salary and they all the picks.

What's worse keeping the whole thing or half?

I just got in from walking the dog and missed all the action, Jesus, this is a good deal by Jim Benning, I like the fact that he is seemingly becoming a better GM and having a better long-term thought process. Good on him for not blowing his load this year.

I never wanted them to sign Markstrom to a long-term deal because of his age and because he’s only been a really good goaltender the past couple years, again, good restraint and deal by Jim Benning.

Need to replace Stetcher and Tanev next imo.
That should be the priority over forwards.

Are we switching roles now?

You're finding the silver lining and i'm like (frank) he probably could have done better.

Moj on OEL & #Canucks trade:

Players were agreed upon, draft picks were agreed upon. The hang-up was the prospect/young player that ARZ wanted.

What I’m hearing is the ask from ARZ was Demko & no way Canucks parting with Demko.

Deal is dead and done.
