Mike Vanderhoek Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 well gained an asset for a pending UFA and opened up over $ 4m in cap space. Not the worst deal, as a fan I thought he was worth more but the cap space alone is worth quite a bit moving forward. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cripplereh Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 Hope we don't do anything bad like sign Bear. We could pick up a better player who becomes a ufa in the summer for that 5th. 1 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Provost Posted November 29, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 29, 2023 (edited) Amazing! He isn’t trash, but getting rid of him without a sweetener is good work. When I saw how low on players Chicago was getting I wondered if we had an opportunity. I assumed it would be a 4th-5th from US going out. This is pretty impressive work to free up cap space. I hope a real D is coming back and not overpaying Bear who will be hard pressed to catch up mid season. He is a pro-rated $1.5 million player for the rest of this season, not a $3-4 million with term kind of player.

Bear is too far out time wise I would say. Canucks need to bolster the defence sooner than he’ll be ready. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No thank you Well, we're a few days away from December and I assume it made sense to pull the trigger now. Could be something else in the works as well. Tbh, I would rather us not go for Ethan Bear - we need a legit top 4D and I would rather look at spending all of the 4M on a serviceable top 4D than sign Bear and hope for him to become a legit top 4D. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 That's some tidy business clearing up cap space while gaining an asset for a player who wasn't a great fit here. I just hope we spend this newfound cap space wisely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

6of1_halfdozenofother Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 We're still into LTIR space, I'm assuming, even with the trade and no retention, right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes barely, but Poolman is never going to play again, so that is still 2.5m in salary relief. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
