Canucks news: RFA Jason Dickinson files for salary arbitration



Newly-acquired centre Jason Dickinson has filed for salary arbitration.

I fully expect the Dickinson and the Canucks to come up with a new contract prior to the hearing date.

  1. Are you as confident as I am that Dickinson and the Canucks will agree on a new contact prior to the arbitration hearing?

  2. It happened because the Canucks obviously low-balled him, understandably, because they don't have a ton of cap space and need to get their big 2 and Juolevi signed as well. As long as both sides agree to the arbitration ruling, things should be okay. Hopefully it's a 2 year deal rather than a 1 year deal or we're going through this all over again, along with Brock Boeser next year. You want to avoid this stuff as much as possible, but for right now, it's not the end of the world.

  3. It does mean the offer was so low, the player and his agent no longer believe its worth the effort to negotiate any longer. IE more than a couple hundred apart.

  4. Assume the canucks offered him around 2 but he was trying to pull around 3. Not worried about this but hopefully its for a +2 year contract.

  5. Clay loving the Hockey Sketches behind you. Sorry if you spoken or address this before. And for Dickinson I'd say 2.5/2.85 would be a good #

  6. Great explanation Clay. I always get mixed up in all these terms. Heard them thrown around in the VANcast and I get so lost haha.

  7. Hope he settles before arbitration for the same as barbashev at 2yrs 2.25 per

  8. It's kind of a business as usual move however still news worthy nonetheless yet nobody else has picked this up. Nice scoop Clay.

  9. Here's a 2 part question: how many teams who trade for an RFA who is arbitration eligible are successful in the hearing vs the player or how often do those arbitration hearings even take place?! In this case, Vancouver never even played them thos past season. The only leg they have to stand on is their pro scouting.

  10. Probably just a ploy to get the Canucks to get a deal done before Hughes and Peterson that way the negotiations are settled before all the free flowing money is all gone. I am sure that they get him sign anyway, perhaps a little quicker. If by some wild over generous arbitration award the team decides not to sign him he still has some time to get a deal with another club.

  11. 2 million should be a good cap hit for Dickinson imo. You could go up to 2.5 but nothing more, but that’s just my preference.

  12. And here we go. Peterson next and Quinn will sit out half the season cause Dumbo Jim doesn't understand cap space

  13. It means he's guaranteed to be on team which is good, I too fully expect they'll reach an agreement before the date. I love Garland but Dickinson was our biggest get imo nobody will have a bigger impact on team success. I still don't think many fans appreciate what he will bring

  14. Not sure if anymore has seen the Marcus Johansson signing with the Kraken. Surprising he signed for 1.5 mil. He was getting 4.5 the last few years and consistently puts up 40 points a year. An arbitrator will look for comparable contracts to the stats that dickinson has over his last few seasons and this Johansson signing really helps the Canucks. If I were an arbitrator, I would give him 1.75 mil for one year.
