Bellemare, Nosek, Kampf, Anisimov Johansson, Nash, Huala all between 1-3 mil All offer more than Dogsh%t Sutter

1/2 of them I like. Comes down to Sutter in a reduced role & known quantity & on the PK. Gotta have role players. Has to stay healthy but less TOI should happen given the top 9 got much better.

Sutter isn't the direction I would have wanted to go, but 1 x 1.125 is completely fair for the Canucks.

Its not bad at all but just move on, there are tons of other options

Not bad on top of his buyout money - but too much too long - GMs will never learn
- Brooks_Light

That makes him the 3rd highest paid dman in the league with buyout and salary combined...

D-men are at a premium as always. If we only could draft more of them....
- carsonagenic

Always yup. Woo is coming along nice but probably 1-2yrs away from making it. Draft more D will happen. Tbh lots in the pipeline but need lots of seasoning.

All probably want more money and don't want to be our 4LC.

yeah unfortunately all don't deserve it, won't get it and should be thankful they're still in the league.

I guess they see merit in keeping him around cause he can move up to 3c and can kill penalties, but I agree, we need change, not more of the same, and he won't change anything.

Would love to see a whole draft after BPA in first round be just drafting of D.

Ya, pretty much how I feel. Would have liked them to bring in someone younger and faster, but the team knows him/likes him, they know what they’re getting from him, and they needed to fill that role on the cheap.

Sutter like him or not he’s cheap & saving on role players is a good cap move.

Pay a bit more for stars & save on the role players like all the good teams.

We got lots of change so far this season, and to JB and TG he is a known quantity and foundational.

I hearya but ppl forget we have drafted a fair amount of D that are just beginning to develop. Not enough RSD but there are some really good potentials.

Woo
Jurmo
Persson
Truscott
and recent picks.

I imagine people like Brandon sitter this year at 1.125 instead of Brandon at 4.25

Sutter skates well & good on FO’s & solid on the PK. Has a role now instead of a 3C is a major bonus. Again health or we use a young Costmar or idk.

Wouldn’t mind seeing the Canucks signing Nick Ritchie as a 4th line winger. We could use a bit more size and toughness
