This is going to sound mental but I believe MacEwen has power forward complimentary top 6 upside. Moreso than JV.

You’re right, it does sound mental.

What this I hear about Krug?

Times were a little different then, we were a dumpster fire of a team. We had to do that to get anyone to sign, probably a little easier in today’s world.

You know it. Look forward to many years of JB at the helm. Feck those who don’t 🖕

Pagnotta - Holtby I believe received a better offer from Edmonton, and opted to take less to play in Vancouver. He is pretty excited to play for the Canucks.

but if those 10 guys could shoot 94 mph wristers, they wouldn't be making less than a mill!

No more excuses

This thread represents a tiny portion of the fanbase so it doesn’t really matter who makes excuses for Benning and who is overly critical of him.

If Van is a desirable place to play these days then he should take advantage of that. If he was the Oilers GM then always offering more term or dollars makes way more sense.

No more excuses for Benning to overpay anymore

Yup.

Mac has more natural offensive instincts so I wouldn’t say it’s mental. He’d probably need to be riding shotgun with 2 clearly superior talents, but that’s the case with Pearson too imo, so there’s the problem for Horvat lol.

Benning just asked if he was still talking with Tanev's and TT's agents and he said they were still in contact with Tanev. Didnt say poop about TT though.

He does mesh better and higher hockey IQ but no where near the same talent on tool set.

That it's too bad the Canucks don't have the cap space to sign him.

"We're still talking to Chris. I don't know exactly where it's going to go... We'd like to bring him back if the numbers make sense and if the term makes sense, he's going to sleep on it tonight." - Benning provides an update on Chris Tanev.


Looks like we’ll find out tomorrow morning

Just saying lol, you guys get too riled up by “the other side” as if it has any influence.

I used to get caught up in it myself so I’m not innocent either

I see how his dominoes have stayed true in this whole process. Goalie first then D and forwards, which they have an abundance of options, for last concern. It doesn't mean that TT is not signed as he tests market. So if no one throws big $$ and term then TT should pick Canucks as good bet to win.

Jackets were shopping Savard

He could be an OK stopgap if the cost to acquire is peanuts.

[WPG] Luca Sbisa re-signs with the Jets (1 year, $800K)

He still plays?

Would like to see MacEwen get a chance.

JV today would be a perfect fit for Ottawa, Arizona etc. Any team with a shortage of forward depth and talent. (He would have been great for the Canucks of 3-4 years ago.) He could slot in on a 2nd or 3rd line with a couple of mediocre stiffs and still get his points.
