You can say what ever you want, the question was whether the Sedins would be resigned, I say yes to 2-3 year extension.

Sorry I'm not one of the followers that will continue to bash them. They will each put up 60 points and extended.

I'm in no rush til they r beaten out. Hank is still serviceable but Daniel needs a real solid bounce back to earn another contract. Wing will be the biggest competition.

Pretty much agree, but I think they were both disappointed in their season last year and they will both come back with a renewed vigor.

Well Daniel may be a stretch at 60, but Henrik will add another 9 points to hit 60, I'll give Daniel 55.

I'm just kidding. Personally I don't want them extended as it is time to move on from them. I think Danny would be a mistake as we have Dahlen, Goldy, JV(maybe), Boeser, Baerschi pushing for a wing spot better options in UFA, and LE signed for 4 more years(from that point). Hank I could see value in a 1 year deal that leaves us open to trade him at TDL. But i doubt he does that, nor will he likely sign w/o Danny. Plus we could have also traded for other prospects pushing NHL. I like that they say they will wait until after next season to re-assess them. I just hope that they have a bad season so we don't re-sign them.

How about letting younger faster bigger stronger players taking those spots instead of two old men that have to hold hands? Why do you have to bring back both?Daniel did d1ck all last year
- VANTEL


If there isn't enough talent to overtake them in the top 9, then u can sign them to a 1 year deal. How cheap can they go? The cheaper they are the more likely they become actual trade assets come the TDL.

If there is nobody to replace them, sign them. trade them and give them another shot in the playoffs. It's all about acquiring more assets for me.

they are still pretty decent players. Ive said it before, they are still using an old and flawed plan of attack used under AV. If Green and Co. are able to identify and change this we will be seeing improved sedins.

What we need to see is more skating in the offensive zone, they are too stationary

- VANTEL


Careful not too overspend on that 14 mill then. UFA's that are proven pt producers aren't cheap. Also, careful with term.

I'm ok with any scenario. But, a low low cost resigning makes them tradable assets. That's all I care about. Hoarding picks and prospects.

That's the issue right there, unless there is a major turn over in personnel there is no one presently on the Canucks that are any better. Baertschi, Goldobin, Megna, Boucher, Grandlund, Eriksson, Boeser, who's taking their spot.

And the constant 14mil you keep bringing up is their signed contract, they are not going anywhere this year. So you can not spend that on another player(s).

Trust me I know all about overspending I have seen my team waste 14 mil on their top line for the last four years

I can't believe how much love Megna is getting.
