Updates On Chris Higgins and Raffi Torres
Everybody is wondering what is going on with the contract negotiations between the Canucks and Torres and Higgins. Mike Gillis is offering little-to-nothing on the matter and the players have said nothing. All we are left with is what each player's agent had to say on Wednesday (via The...
