Carol Schram: Up next for the Canucks: those contracts for Richardinson, Pettersson, Hughes Jim Benning has been pedal-to-the-metal in remaking the Vancouver Canucks franchise but his work isn't done. Arbitration season is just around the corner, with Jason Richardinson the highest-profile player who's eligible. And the new deals for Quinn Hughes and Elias Pettersson still loom.

Thanks carol

Thanks Carol!

Thanks Carol, that’s going to be a lot of salary in Abbotsford. Good on RyJo for pushing for $ to ice a competitive team.

I saw a tweet this morning that Scott Burnside is no longer with The Athletic. Seems to have caught him off guard, apparently all his stuff is gone from the Athletic app now - though I can’t confirm as I am not a subscriber.

Too bad, I enjoyed his contributions to the podcasts.

Thanks Carol.

Jim didn't know that having an AHL team closer would bring better talent.

Thanks Carol!
BB's cap hit hit is 5.875mil.
Didn't the NHL change the rules on qualifying offers and make it the avg. of the salary over the whole term instead of just the final year?

And being able to carry a smaller NHL roster. Save those cap dollars and just pay for cab fare. 😁

BB I believe was grandfathered in.

Maybe because they don't have enough cap space for a full roster.

@Carson

Contracts signed after July 2020 go by AAV for QO

Brock was signed before July 2020

Right

Thx Carol! I’m definitely on team trade Boeser. He is about to be overpaid and he is a bit of a slug. Trade him for D help.

Max it out for opening game for max LTIR, then let the cab rides begin.

Amazing how many fans in this fanbase love to criticize our best young players. Pathetic toxic behaviour

@Vintsy

This is my comment to you, in regards to that crap you posted last blog.

WAR is a useless, yes, useless stat and if you are relying on that crap, all I can say is, you are an idiot.

14m with 22 signed.
2 demotions makes it 15.5m
3.5m more after day 1 for Ferland

I think Canuck fans have to look at the Theodore and Girard contracts. Anything higher than that is a huge overpay.

I knew that would draw out the best capologist around.
