if he had gone to FA another team would've paid the same amount.. Cap hit is high but its only 3 yearAbout 4 million dollars overpaid
You are trying to reason with the wrong canuck "fan" .if he had gone to FA another team would've paid the same amount.. Cap hit is high but its only 3 year
And I care, why? The front office should have let that happen rather than try to save face from getting bent over by Florida because of their weird fetish for 'toughness' over skill.if he had gone to FA another team would've paid the same amount.. Cap hit is high but its only 3 year
Meh, not really all that upset with the contract, this team won't be somewhat competitive until maybe year three of that contract (that's being optimistic). I don't think he's earned, but this is the wrong contract to get upset about, we still have that Eriksson contract which still has me scratching my head.
Him being paid so much more than what he brings on the ice is a functional NTC.
I'm surprised by the negative reaction. The salary might be a little higher than he's worth but its good in the context of not getting an NTC and only a 3 year contract for a 4th/5th dman. On top of that, the salary cap is inconsequential for the next couple years and he's great trade bait near the end of his contract. He's a great placeholder until our d prospects become NHLers.
I really don't see much risk at all in the context of the Canucks team.

My guess is that it's a sign and trade to try to get a little more value out of him than if he were just a rental. 4 mill is a little high, but a GM desperate to add somebody at the deadline without having to give up a 1st round pick or a top tier prospect might bite on a deal.
Nobody outside of Canucks fans who blindly defend everything Benning does knows Gudbranson is a horrible defender.Hah, I thought this was a bumped thread from before we all found out he wasn't that good.
I’m speechless
Canucks fan, cause the worst thing it might happen to the Sens is the team gets relocated.I'm trying to figure out what's worse.. being a Nucks fan or a Sens fan....
