Damien Cox and McCown said they believe he will be fired if he doesn't make the playoffs.

He needs a goalie and a 1 st line center ,He needs to work the phones and do some deals.

you should tell us what Steve Simmons thinks too. That would lend even more credibility to your ideas.

So Prock, before this whole thing goes down, what's your honest assessment of Kadri?

You have called the Lu/Gardiner trade for a long time now. I would laugh my azz off if that trade goes down.
You'll be known as an insider.

His time is running out on showing he can be a solid top 6 player, pretty quickly. I'd say this year is pretty much going to tell everything. I don't think he'll ever be a top line guy, but I'm still holding out hope for a 50ish point winger for the second line.

And I don't think he gets traded either. Im not convinced Toronto trades for Luongo at all, and hope they don't.

If that happens the mods will make this site look the first 20 minutes of saving private Ryan
Edit: I betting it will be a race between sccoby and bloated to see who can be the first off the boat

I've been convinced since June Lu is going to toront. Makes to much sense. Van will not get Gardiner, Rielly etc. Nor will they take komi. It will be a Bozak package. I think there is a chance Gunnersson will be in the package but believe that Bozak, Ashton and Finn/Percy/Franson is more likely.
I have Florida as my 2nd bet for Weiss and Clemmonson

I called Parise over a yr ago, but figured Suter would return to Nashville. I did or have called Bozak from the begining

Roberto just arrived in Vancouver.


So there goes all the thoughts that he would not even make it to the West coast. This says to me:

1. Lou is not a prima donna and is a memeber of the team. He could have held out but lets realize he did used to be the cpatain for a reason.

2. Gillis is serious when he says the Canucks may not trade him.

hard to trade a guy if nobody will take him

This just in: Nonis may not trade Komisarek.

you may have heard the last of the Vancouver riot if that trade goes down. There might be a new riot to discuss. Instead of cars being burned it may be ACC or Tannenbaums house

The difference is, Luongo is a #1 goaltender and has a half decent resume. All komisarek has is lucic's knuckles tattooed on his forehead

I find the leafers pretty comical. A week ago 80% of them said komi and a 3rd is as good of deal as Lu would fetch. Now suddenly Bozak and Gunnersson or Bozak and prospects or Lupul seems reasonable. Times are as changing

I think Laff fans are going to be mad no matter what unless they get Lu for a 7th round pick. If we get Gardiner or Reilly in a deal, I think NOBODY will ever remember that we had two Stanley Cup riots.
