Is beagles contract worse than eriksson?

[bossram]

Still messed up that we have 10mill tied up in those two.

That's around the price someone like Karlsson will get.

Hmm....

Would you rather have Eriksson and Beagle at a combined 9+ million, or one Mark Stone?

Well I mean, two is better than one right?

 

[Jyrki21]

My issue with Eriksson isn't even how it translates on the ice. I mean I guess if he was scoring 40 goals or whatever that's one thing, but knowing that was pretty much impossible from the get-go, it just never made sense for the 2016 Canucks to sign that contract, even if he was the most effort-ful player in the world.

Same basically goes for Beagle. There was really just no need to tie up that cap space that long while trying to climb out of a trough.

This thread is a case study on why you don't bid hard on mid tier UFAs. They're all overpaid, and they're all mediocre. You collect enough of them and you just end up killing your team's cap structure by a thousand cuts.

If you want to sign a UFA go for elite talent, or bargain bin.

Gudbrandson, Sutter & Eriksson's deals are BY FAR the worst contracts on this team, and Eriksson's is one of the 5 worst in the NHL, I don't really have much of a problem with Beagle's tbh, its probably a year too long, but he's well down the list of problems on this team

Matthews but it’s close

No, it is not close. Its not in the same town, province, country, or even continent.

There is no reality, this one or otherwise, in which the gap between Matthews at ~11.5 and Beagle+Eriksson at 10 is "close".

Quit drinking the Kool-Aid.

I think Beagle makes 3m not 4m
And it’s not even close

Jay Beagle - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

Jay makes 3 million per for the next 4 years. Erickson is way worse.

Jay is playing the way I expected. Erickson can’t even hold onto a top 6 spot on a team looking to add another top 6 winger.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Both have 3 years left after this season

Both are 4th liner currently

One makes 3m, is a centre and still has enough wheel to keep up the modern game

On makes 6m, is a winger and one of the slowest player in th league

Beagle is totally moveable when Elias ELC is up

Eriksson is the first candidate to go on LTIR in two years

He's playing like he's already on LTIR.

Beagle at least is useful.

I think he was joking. He was joking. Right? Right???

 

[HankNDank]

Actually expanding on this. I enjoy how the world explodes saying how Matthew's is overpaid yet the Canucks sign these bums and "oh well it's just a Benning move".

Who would you rather have.

Matthew's

or

Eriksson and Beagle

Lol

But who do we get with the other 1.634M? If it is Petterssons ELC, then yes I take that trio.

 

[PavelBure10]

Beagle actually provides something to the team. Eriksson does not.

 

[mossey3535]

Right now, he's already exceeded what Loui has brought to the team. The issue is with the years after next season.

 

[polarbearcub]

I’m actually a big fan of beagle. He brings much more tenacity and speed than slow Louie.

I actually have no issue with the beagle signing. He could turn out to be a really valuable player in playoff runs in 2-3 years

Sutter should be gone and centre should look like

Petterson
Horvat
Gaudette
Beagle

Actually really solid

 

[PM]

I would be surprised if Beagle is still playing at his current level in 2 years. He would be a great fourth liner on a cup contender this year though and possibly next year. Erikssons contract is one of the worst in the league and Sutters is terrible too.

 

[PetterssonSimp]

Beagle doesn’t even make my Top10 for problems on this team!
Green’s insistence to use Granlund is near #1 though! At least Beagle wins a board battle! Granlund literally won his first board battle of the 2019 calendar year and then immediately turned it back over to the Ducks in the defensive zone!

It is pretty close.

Beagle has been awful for us this year, and he isn't going to get any better.

It's sad that it is so hard to tell these days

 

[ProstheticConscience]

Is Beagle's contract worse than Eriksson's?

No. No it is not.

 

[ChilliBilly]

Lol

Just sad .... did u ever notice that your comments get no likes and the ones you attempt to belittle get tons?

 

[stampedingviking]

4 million a year for 33 year old beagle :shrug:

Poile gave viktor Arvidsson 4 million a year.

No, not even close.

 

[stampedingviking]

It is pretty close.

That's not even close to being correct

 

[PuckMunchkin]

The salary structure of our team is so out of whack that most people feel that the Beagle contract is par de course.
