We spend a year not picking up a bad contract and instead pick up a bad goalie.

I would love to see Naslund behind the bench for the Canucks. Maybe after a few years as power play coach, Nazzy could become the head coach and after that GM!!!

Not sure he is giving up his GM job for Modo to be a PP coach

True, but the trade deadline is wednesday. Will management be able to get a fair assessment over the next two days? If Jensen scores three goals tonight will Gillis change his strategy? I hope not.

4th line players don't need to fit a prototype in the NHL, they need to fill minutes. I could see a 4th line of the three kids in a playoff series. They should be able to see what kind of shot he has.

Why do you toy with me I only have one heart.

Hey, I jUt post what my, er, what The Rumor Guru's sources are telling him. It's up to everyone else to decide for themselves whether I'm full of crap or not.

Do you think the Devils would do this trade with the Canucks?

To New Jersey:
Luongo, Raymond, + 1st Round Pick

To Vancouver:
Clarkson & Fayne

Brodeur is retiring and Luongo would do well in New Jersey. Raymond replaces some of Clarkson's offence. New Jersey also gets a 1st Round Pick. Vancouver gets a solid 6th d-man in Fayne to replace Ballard (traded or bought out) and Clarkson who brings some great offence.

Math:
--------

Luongo ($6.7M this year and next; $5.3M cap hit)

Raymond ($2.3M this year; $2.3M cap hit + possible $2M new contract next year) - UFA

Clarkson ($3M this year; $2.7M cap hit + possibly a $4.5M new contract next year) - UFA

Fayne ($1.2M this year, $1.4 next year; $1.3M cap hit)

Vancouver Cap Hit Post-Trade:
$4M this year; $5.8M possible next year

New Jersey Cap Hit Post-Trade:
$7.6M this year; $7.3M possible next year

Does this sound reasonable?

Sounds like a panic move.

people on HFBoards are saying they heard on @TSN1050Radio gillis offered jensen + 1st for a signed clowe… can someone confirm or deny this?

Everyone on twitter high fiving because Kesler should be playing within a week. Gillis never saif for what team
- VANTEL

All these proposals including him are definitely an interesting point of conversation, but the likelihood of him actually getting traded is lower than RF4eva's closing record (sorry kid ).

Not happening.

Can we throw in Kesler and have the Canes throw in J.Staal?

I can deny it... I mean HFBoards are credible and all, but I'm thinking that's an overpayment for a guy with the same amount of goals as our goaltenders.

There's a team other than TOR also talking to CGY about Kiprusoff

Vancouver?

I'd sooner trade for Brodeur, he at least has one.

It makes too much sense to keep Jensen and Hansen. I mean they are from the same country and all.

Maybe another prospect + 2nd for Clowe. No way we trade our 1st rounder this year.

ason Brough‏@JasonPHT5m
Anytime you can get an aging goalie with an .873 save percentage and a big cap hit, that's a deal you have to make.

I know everyone in here will disagree with me. But I think bringing in Ribiero would be a super solid move.

The guy is an awesome puck distributor. Something Kesler is not.
- vancity787

Would LOVE Rat Boy Ribeiro here. The guy can play, put personal feelings aside, he's a perfect 2C for this team.

No, but I know her pain all too well.....**sigh**

On a side note, is she a looker? Cause if she is, I can clean up that chocolate in no time...

I said it before at the beginning of they year. Are the Canucks and ZJensen having problems ? When he said to the Canucks he is going to Sweden and then Gillis came in after and said oh OK . I thought it was strange.
