@YaGirlBreeezy imho his trade was decreased because of that contract.
No one wants to overpay for a guy on a 6x6 extension. Especially when they know the team trading him is rebuilding and wants to get rid of him.
@Crazzy_Canuck_ I don’t think they’re lazy but I think we just over projected them. Partly due to the fact our management always wanted to contend.
Boes was never gonna be a sole sniper for a contending team. Same goes for Petey as a centre.
Now it’s time move on and recoup assets.
@slclax@DJHeerMusic Personally, I think there was a time where it was possible.
However, now it has pasted, they had many tries to show they were able to be the leaders/stars of their team.
But now we have given too many chances and it’s time for them to move on.
I bet Drew O’Connor is of interest of a lot of teams.
Big frame, hard forechecker, blocks shots, cheap contact.
Pretty much ticks all of the boxes, if Dickinson went for a 1st, we might be able to get something similar for Drew.
#canucks#nhl
6x6 contracts in recent #Canucks history!
Myers (Traded)
Loui the Goat (Traded)
Garland (Good as gone)
When will this club learn signing players with a good season or two to a 6x6 NEVER works.
Pre “The market just wasn’t suitable for us a club this year for our hybrid rebuild”
Then the very next day the #Canucks extend Kane for the infamous 6x6!
To-Dos for the #Canucks before July 1st.
1) Trade 57,8,91,18,40,74,29,64,53 for prospects and picks.
2) Fire Foote, Promote Malhotra, change management.
3) Pick McKenna
4) Don’t rush naming a Captain (Not 17)
5) Build off a core of McKenna*, Cootes, and Willander/Zeev
@between2pipes I mean there is no telling why they can or can’t become but you’re definitely going to give them the minutes to develop and see what they can become.

@EastVan808 I partly agree but I only part I would disagree is that I wouldn’t sign someone in free agency who takes up time from a younger player.
Like what’s happening to Ratu, Mancini, and Sasson right now is disgraceful.
