[VanillaCoke]

Thats a win

 

[MS]

Best move of Benning's tenure by a country mile. Well done.

I have no idea what Vegas is thinking here.

 

[Bgav]

Wow great trade finally

 

[Canucks LB]

This is absolute robbery, this might be one of the best deals ever in our history, no joke.

He is in his prime

he’s a top 2/3 basically a top three defenceman, he’s so damn good.

I cannot believe it

 

[polarbearcub]

What the actual f***

 

[Cheeks Clapinski]

That's amazing. I didn't think Jimmy could do something like this

 

[ziploc]

This is amazing. Well done Benning.

 

[passive voice]

I will be goddamned

 

[polarbearcub]

Losing stecher hurts a lot more now

 

[Red]

I'm SHOOK I can't process that Benning made this good of a trade.

 

[Bleach Clean]

This is a crazy good deal. I am amazed.

Is this verified anywhere else?

 

[canucksfan]

You’d think a team could top that though. Excellent for the Nucks. Shit for Vegas. Should have traded him to the east

 

[Josepho]

I can't believe he actually did this.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Lol what

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

I’m kind of speechless. That’s an awesome deal.

Reported for trolling. Mods, please loc...


WHAT
THE
f***?

ITS REAL?

 

[Get North]

Steal. No more crying now.

 

[GetFocht]

Steal.

This is like Ehrhoff trade again.

 

[M2Beezy]

Man I love this team again

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I mean...I hoped we would try to get Schmidt. I even would have been OK with the Canucks paying a similar price to what they did for Miller last year.

I’m still stunned. This is great news.

 

[Nuckles]

That is a gigantic win. Benning got lucky he missed out on OEL, signing Tanev, signing Barrie, etc.

 

[drax0s]

Wooooooow. I thought for sure we'd be doing them a favor here and giving them actual value. This is a steal.

 

[Nucker101]

I still can’t believe this. Seems too good to be true.

 

[Diversification]

How much cap do we have to shed?

 

[MS]

How the hell do you spend weeks doing incredibly stupid stuff like offering a massive package for OEL or $6 million for Barrie, and then have this fall into your lap as plan F? Benning really is Forrest Gump.

 

[StreetHawk]

Going to have to move contract out in 21-22 to fit him in.
