It might sound better if you said you spit your bourbon or your rye & ginger.

Come on, Bluechip, as Kelser would say,"Give your balls a tug!" You know soy milk is more masculine.

great idea! Tootoo would be an awesome fit for Vancouver. This would be a good deal for both player and team.

Why would the wings ever consider trading their best 2 players, for that?

Sometimes this Sh!t is too easy. Learn to take a joke dude. This is a blog site to have fun and talk about hockey. The fact that you thought we were being serious means you shouldnt come back on this chat board. Have a good day.

Steve Yzerman sucks.

Hint this is a joke as well. He is my favorite player of all time.

1st ballot hall of famers. If they played for detroit they would have their jersey retired for sure.

But honestly, the canucks and wings might both be better off if they swapped tootoo for a mid/low round pick.

Do we have to tell you? It's so obvious, the chance to play with Dale Weise.

I was looking at the UFAs next year and makes me wonder, do you really want to re-sign the Sedins or would we like to go in a different direction.

If the Sedins come off the books and we get rid of Booth and Lu is traded . We would have over 30 mil in cap space and could take a different direction.

PLayers like Thorton Kessel Vanek Callahan

We could try to build a first line like

Vanek (6 Mil) Thorton (6.8 Mil) Kessel 6.8

Burrows Kesler Shinkaruk

Gaunce Horvat Kassian

Dude, the UFA class always looks great at this time of the year, talk to me again in April. And with the cap likely increasing by 3 million or more next year some GM's are going to get crazy again if any of these guys make it to UFA. What happens if the Sedins walk and you can't land any of them? Ask Oilers fans how fun it has been to suck these last few years, the only time they get excited is during draft time and during pre-season when they can all jack off to the young guys.

Your missing the point. If we walk from the Sedins trade Lu and get rid of Booth we become the team like the Oilers and Leafs were a few years back. The names may change of who is available but a lot of teams are getting close to the cap ceiling while we could be in there with wallets wide open for stars that want to test FA.
