The only upside is that perhaps more die hard fans and families will be able to afford to go to the games. Less corporate Canucks.

I've seen reports that Torts has a $10M contract, but the reported salary lost for the suspension (which was reported on NHL.com) didn't add up for a $2M salary, yet aligned perfectly for $1M.
Can't seem to find $$$ info on Gillis contract aside from a couple people claiming they heard $2M on Team 1040.

Add buying out Booth, it's going to be a rough year for the Canucks financially.

If tickets are cheaper and true fans can finally go watch the game good because the team is so corporate its pathetic...

I've been following my team since the Harold Ballard era so I've had to endure some tough times as a fan. I had to keep reminding mysel that if I can endure all the lows, it will make a Cup win all the more rewarding. Stick with your team, develop a sense of humour, some thick skin, and some humility and someday you can say you were there from start to finish
