WOW: Statement from Jim Benning that's not aging well
When GM's complete trades, more often then not, they believe they came out ahead.
You can only truly judge a trade a few years after it's been completed. In July 2021 Jim Benning made a trade with the Coyotes that still haunts the Canucks salary cap to this day.

Following the trade, here's the statement he made regarding Oliver Ekman-Larsson.
In his 4 last seasons with the Coyotes, he averaged over 0.5 points per game. Since arriving with the Canucks 0.39. He has failed to take responsibilities from Hughes and even worst he takes 8.8% of the team's cap space and has a full No-Movement clause until the end of 2027. Is it fair to say that Benning really missed the target on this one? How do you rate this trade so far?
