Carol Schram: Free-Agent Frenzy indeed! Canucks' roster remake includes Halak, Poolman The Vancouver Canucks are in the heat of the action as free-agency begins — loading up on right-shot defensemen and signing veteran Jaroslav Halak to replace Braden Holtby, who was bought out.

Thank you Carol,

The Canuck's have a fresh new batch of players available for the waiver wire this season!

Early lineup….

- Nighthawk

So nice not to see the deadbeat names of last season on that roster.
Wish we didn't spend as much as we did on Pearson, but still no terrible deals in the forward group overall.
Joe Levi is an issue though. he needs to play, but I don't think he cracks the lineup with out injuries, and he won't clear waivers IMO. So does Bone take the hit since he can clear?

Thanks Carol.

Jim has been busy, hopefully some of the players that were signed today will take another step here in Van and for once Van will be the team that gets a good player for nothing.

Didn't most say the exact same thing last season?

Benning pulling magic out of his hat at the very end to make the off season spectacular?

Ya i agree, agressive off-season but a lot of relatively young pickups. Nice vet backup. Poolman and schenn give us some depth. Sutter back at a salary he should have always had

Have to say i have been pretty impressed with Benning's 'aggression' over the last week. Decent trades, good signings and great cap maneuvering.

That said, i won't fully be at peace until E.P is signed.

Remember the Fire Benning banner?
