The Canucks, as everyone is well aware, are trying to move Roberto Luongo.  Dale Weise is an RFA, and has opted for Salary Arbitration.  Byron Bitz’ status is unknown to me, and will update it as soon as I know.

As of now, the Salary Cap hit for the Canucks, is $67,153,333 and is $3,046,667 shy of the $70,200,000 Salary Cap for the 2012-2013 Season.
