You can't publicly say you have interest in acquiring a player that is under contract with another team.

Even trade talks.

The penalty could be steep for the Stamkos comment. He has to be close to having one foot out the door at this point.

There's a clear downside here: This likely increases the chances he gets fired sooner than later.

That doesn't sound like a stretch at this point. The Canucks should be penalized a draft pick and that won't go down well at all in that market.

I seriously doubt it. Trevor Linden was hand-picked by the Aquelini's to restore the Canucks public image within the community, and to implement their vision for hockey in Vancouver. I think both Linden and Benning have a lot of latitude to make blunders abound.

NHL: Jim, we think your comments re: Stamkos were tampering.
Jim Benning: Wait, so when I talk about my own players, is that Vancouvering?

The Canucks are a bottom line team. The reason they won't go full rebuild is that the owner values season ticket sales above all else. That fan base is close to a mutiny.

That's true. Here's hoping that if Benning is fired that the Aquelini's and Linden are just as diligent in their next GM search!
