I think JB wanted to keep both but needed to move money. If they were able to do OEL deal that year, they could've kept one of the ufa's...(ie move louie/beagle/roussel).

Basically Garland is our Toffoli now...

but if JB ever let JV go especially after shotgun jake season...fans going to riot.

I don't think any team will take JV with that civil suit pending.
I bet his agent reached out to all teams and he had no choice but to go KHL for one season.

Maybe by next year his civil matter will be over and another team might take a chance on him.

How far can that civil suit go with no actual legal charges?

I agree that no team would take on that baggage if they don't need to, especially with the ongoing #metoo thing. JV18 isn't good enough for that, and even if he's say Eichel level of talent I'd hesitate to say any team would pay him market for the negative PR.

Not abnormal, there are other players in the league in the same situation. Horvat and Boeser came down to the wire as well. Probably fighting over hundreds of thousands at this point.

I believe Ferland has to come to camp and not be medically cleared to play and be placed on LTIR so he can still be paid. Then we would have the cap space to sign Petey and Hughes. Thats what i think is going on. We have 10.6mil in cap space and another 3.5 from Ferland. 14mil between Hughes and Petey sounds about right on a short term deal.

A lot of people bitch about many of the Canucks’ signings under Benning and somehow Ferland is usually forgotten. That was a mistake from day 1.

No one talks about it cause Ferland was brought in to protect Petey and also teach Jake how to be a power forward. Concussions got the best of him. Was it Bennings fault? I can see both sides of the arguement but im not pretend and say i knew this was gonna happen from the get go

Concussions already had the best of him.

I really wished Ferland was 100% healthy. The few games where he played his style he would've made the Canucks that much tougher

I can't believe he (Benning) wasn't fired SOLELY for failing to get insurance for Ferland's contract

Acquilini is on the hook for the whole thing from what I hear

Knowing Aqua, he likely wasn't willing the pay the premium for the insurance. If anything, it'd be on him.

If that's the case Aquilini is at fault for all the bad contracts since he signs off on all of them

You have to love a good bag skate to start off training camp, OEL hurting that hard is not something to be worried about what so ever right now.

no kidding, that's not lack of skill that's lack of conditioning and being ill prepared.

that's why the coaches are doing it, shake them all out and see who needs to improve or who came in ready to roll.
