Don't worry. Management will do more boneheaded moves in the future to try to get Hughes to stay.
Then Hughes decides to jump ship and Canucks are stuck with these players and their contracts.

The thing with Brock is he has great and is truly a good person. I would be ok if he signed a 6x8 deal or maybe even 8x8 but I wouldnt want him to sign for more.

I don’t think the Canucks are good enough to give a guy $2M plus a year more than he’s worth and pay him well into his sunset just because he’s a nice dude

so who would the Nucks get to replace him and for how much?
Ehlers will be north of $8 mil, is a year older, has never scored more than 30 goals, but averages about 10 more points than Boeser. Many teams will try to land him, so you risk getting neither players if you go to free agency.
Brock Nelson? even older and less points.
Sam Bennett? same age, brings intangibles, but way less points.
IMO, unless Alvin works some magic to trade for a top 6F, the Canucks can't afford to not extend Boeser. They can trade him later, even for scraps if he doesnt live up to the contract.

Brock's contract is worth as much as teams will pay him. If the Canucks want to be one of those teams, they have to meet his price or someone else will.
And then what?

Rangers losing 3-1 to Tampa in the 3rd
Would feel fitting to see Miller miss the playoffs as well after all the BS

They’re definitely out, 6 points behind Montreal with only 1 game in hand.
On that note, fuck the east bar is low for playoffs after the top tier teams… Montreal is running away with 8th at 85 points??? That’s tied with Cakgary for 9th in the west with us right behind at 83 lol

On the Canucks Reddit I guess messier was shitting on the Rangers for their current predicament and someone there called him “scrotum head”
Feels fitting, clown

There’s a a lot of guys in the 25-30 goal range out there and they don’t cost $8M a season.

Fans across the league (including Jets fans) won't care until they prove themselves in the playoffs. Harsh, but that's the reality. We've all seen it one too many times.

Yes, of course, there is no trophy for the most number of wins in franchise history.

Let Brock walk and try to get Matthew knies from Toronto? Big power forward that can play physical and score. He got 52 points and 26 goals this season. He probably wouldn't command as much as Brock.

Desperate hockey. Not surprised. Dallas got nothing to play for.
Wait till the wild game. That will be another playoff type game.

Apparently they made NHL history being the only team to ever come all the way back from a 3 goal deficit in the final minute. Neat.
