"Looks like Cole is going to hit the free agent market on July 1st. He signed that one-year deal last year with the Canucks at $3 million. Now, the Canucks would need Cole at a much lower number than three. It doesn't look like the Canucks will be able to re-sign him after some contract talks I believe over the weekend. In the last week, the two sides could not find common ground but it looks like they did talk. The Canucks really liked this player. They wanted him back, but it looks like he's going to hit the free agent market after some contract talks that couldn't find common ground."
