I'm not saying that at all but who is to say right now is the best value? Do we even have a legitimate offer for either right now? If they both walk for nothing I will be the first to crucify Darcy but until that time I will reserve judgement.

what is interesting is Biron got the sabres a 2nd.....Darcy should be able to get a 1st and a prospect.

well if he is waiting for draft picks for 2014 instead of 2013 by trading him at the deadline or during the season then this is going to be a very very long rebuild.

what I dont get is Darcy is well respected by outside media(other then Buffalo) and other GMs.....no respect here though.

Off topic but...


Who is this Beezer character on here lately? He's been posting lots of rumors/ chatter and seems to have a source because a lot of you seem to think of him as a credible guy.

Kinda like how Homer was when he clearly had someone in the know giving him info




Not bashing whatsoever...just curious. Whats he called thus far?

I have no idea what he is doing, I just want a good return for them whether than is now or later time will tell.

Darcy don't do nothing wrong. His skills as a manager are beyond reproach. We are so fortunate to employ this hockey genius. - Terry Pegula

He's probably waiting out the Canuck circus so Miller is worth the most considering both Vancouver goalies are better than Miller.

Ohh sure!
That coming from a Senators fan has a lot of validity in here!

What has Darcy ever done wrong? I wish Pegula would give him a lifetime contract already. This way we know for sure that he will never get fired and we can stop pretending a bad decision/not making the playoffs/not winning anything will get him canned because it is almost a scientific fact that he can't get fired. The best philosophy with this team is to expect nothing then you won't be disappointed.

Or how about he grossly overrated and overpaid with a bad attitude and you need to realize that for once.

He said a few days ago that what has Darcy done wrong?
I think the proper question should be: What has Darcy done right?

Canucks must not agree if the reported 1st and a prospect is all it takes to get Schnieder.
- BigStew


Or a year of Gillis (frank)ing up trades has made them come back to earth and their not as delusional anymore.

IMO the past couple of years he's done very well for himself with trades...


Full on robbed NSH for the 1st rounder= Girgensons essentially
Traded an insanely over hyped prospect in Kassian for Hodgson+ Sulzer )landslide victory)

Traded Pommer for a 16th overall pick + two grade "A" prospects in larson and hackett

Regher and Leopold for 2nd rounders each? Those two are AWFUL players and he got 2nds for them?


yes, his track record is pretty bad but the most recent trades Ive been very impressed with




Also, the Mike Weber deal could be an absolute steal for us in the 2nd and 3rd year

Just looking at their statistics, both Schneider and Luongo each have better numbers than Miller. Division Titles were close though with 6 for Lou/Schneider and 2 for Miller.

Edit: 1Pres for Miller, 2 for Lou/Schneids... still a loss for Miller.
