Can't believe he hasn't signed Penner yet and he missed out on Bryz.
- Nucker101

Penner, I agree with that, should have been offered a PTO for sure.


Missed out on Bryz, after ANA leans so heavily on Fredrick Andersson with so many starts it will lead to injury or burn him out, maybe both.

The Ducks Playoff hopes rest in Bryz' hands

Yup. Not gonna argue that. He's a good role player, but not worth his cap hit(basically paid as a 2nd liner).
- Nucker101

Agreed, but I don't see this happening. I see Franson in Detroit.

Franson and Ashton for Justin Applicator?

I really don't see a deal happening unless Benning is planning on re-signing Franson and also looking to move one of the other righties(Tanev/Bieksa).
- Nucker101

cap dump Tanev on EDM, for say Nikitin or Ference

ok...... bieksa and shinkaruk will be fine

Yeah, it doesn't make sense given where the Canucks are(in terms of general direction/trend of the team, the cap, and the roster).

It's a constant struggle for me in the Canucks blogs, at least 50% of the regular posters there think he's a 3-4 d-man at best. But then I look at his underlying numbers and they all suggest he's way better than that. Especially since he plays against every top lines. Dude does well defensively against all of the big guns in the west and makes every D partner he plays with look way better.

You talkin' Stanton? He's worth a 1st.

Ok, Nikitin+4th in 2019

EDM needs a right shot D with some top pair potential. Flushing the closest thing they have in Petry to make way for Jesus Schultz

Have you seen him play? He has Euro hands. Nothing rest there.

Hey Elbows,

I think we are going to see Bryz again this playoffs like we did last year for Minny.

They are killing that Kid in ANA. It won't end well.



You catch that game last night??

The stupidity of football coaches never ceases to amaze me. He sure fooled the Pats.

Maybe, but nobody would have been able to take it from him as he strolled over the line, chewing on the football

He's going to make it hard for CHI to beat the Jets this year in the playoffs.

That's If the Hawks make it to the Semis to face Canadas Team

You know there are Canadians on every team, right? Let me know when the Jets get a Toews, Kane, Keith, Seabrook or a Sharp. They have a good team but the playoffs are a whole different animal.

I know you might have forgotten that being a Leaf fan and all.

[quote=KesselRules]I want a top prospect and 1st if he resigns numbnuts or can't you read. Keep spewing nonsense. Where's that comparable trade where a player like Franson gets just a 2nd. Still waiting. Having a hard time finding one.


Franson has already F'd over the leafs potential return for him by turning down $4.6 million.

Now all teams know what he THINKS he is worth.

Franson is worth 4.5 max.

COMPARABLE...... Jason Garrison traded for a 2nd rounder.
- classic321

Kyle Quincey went for a first.

So Vancouver lets Santarelli walk and now all of sudden they want him back when his output is identical to last season.

Come on Eklund at least make the rumors somewhat believable.
