Surprising 🤔, as a Canucks fan i’d think you’d know all about awful contracts 😂 but clearly not. Sammy just put up better numbers than Demko (overrated) but we’ll trade him and add our best defenseman who just lit up the playoffs. Nah … pass

Franchise goalie? Is there that much difference between Samsonov and Demko? Reilly isn't a bad contract at all. Besides Reilly would have no desire to waive to the Canucks....Vancouver maybe, Canucks no.

And yes, Rielly is a bad contract. He’s a defensive liability whose offense dropped significantly this year. Using an 11 game sample size from the playoffs doesn’t change that
