I still can't get over the fact that almost 50% of Vanek's career goals have been on the power play...

that just doesn't scream premier scorer to me.

Dave Andreychuk says hi.


Vanek 42%
Andreychuck 42.8%

A goal is a goal.

Don't care if 42% went off his ass.

This place makes me laser focused. Drink a red bull, argue with Sabre Nerds and then get my work on.

Det. STL, NYI, PHO, Philly or even Colombus would fit
- sbroads24


Detroit..... I don't know what we would get back.

STL.... umm.. Shattenkirk, Stewart, or Backes (yea right) could be nice...

NYI.. Idk maybe Nino+ or Moulson/Grabner/Okposo of some sort with picks.

PHO... Boedker's UFA rights, Hanzel/Vermette, maybe Stone or 12th overall

Philly.. Couturier or Read would be the starting point.

CLB.. draft picks, Dubinsky, ... IDK.. I don't want Foligno. I doubt they give Gaborik

NYI: I'd ask for Nino or Strome as a starting point.

Det: Frk for starters

CLB: doesn't need Vanek and no thank to Gaborik

PHO: Samuelsson and the 12th gets the convo going

STL: Stop with the Staf... I mean Stewart hard on.

Philly: With what cap space?

I want a scoring winger or center back for Vanek... who has at least 3 years of NHL experience with 1 or more at least 20 goal or 45 pt seasons... And under the age of 27. Doesn't have to be a physical checker but at least responsible in his own zone.



Loui Eriksson, Chris Stewart, Bobby Ryan, Dustin Brown, Moulson/Grabner, Matt Read, Joe Pavelski (28)....

kind of guy...

Vanek's is hands down the biggest percentage of any "premiere" scorers in the NHL. This is why I have such a problem with labeling him that.
