but ek says that the canucks also inquired about hemsky. so you're saying that a soft, injury prone euro isn't what the nucks needed last june? i'm gonna have to side with ek's opinion over yours on this one. he definitely knows hockey and has the contacts to back it up!

i'm liking your new team. they definitely have nowhere to go but up. that young kovalchuk kid looks like he's going to be a superstar. mark my words, he's a competitor and shows nothing but loyalty. i see him retiring a thrasher.

not all of it. and not sober

looked like a mid season game. the canucks played mediocre and then started to improve.

i definitely want a dman (gill or even bryan allen) plus a bottom 6 guy at the deadline. if they can't get the forward that's fine but they definitely need a d. don't like alberts out there unless it's an emergency. he's a tough, big guy but his skating is weak and he takes too many penalties b/c of his bad positioning/skating.

i would like to see ballard/tanev/rome (and one more guy not named alberts) battle for 5,6,7.

Cap hit aside... (gillman can figure it out)... grossman and ott from dallas but not sure how ott's NTC is... or allen and ruutu from carolina. Jurcina from islanders wouldn't be bad.

Not many sellers this time around.... I could see a depth defenseman being added and then just reinprect coming up playoff time.

i think ott and ruutu are going to be waaaaaay too expensive but they're on my wish list as well.

i was thinking reinprect comes up as well but i don't see that as a viable solution. he won't be brought up b/c of waivers so he doesn't have time to mesh with linemates. a deadline guy at least has a month with the team to start to gel. i know that the wolves play the same system but it's a matter of meshing with the guys you play with. higgy and lappy needed the regular season games last year to find their groove.

reinprect is nice insurance but it doesn't auger well if he's playing in the playoffs.

Ya I agree... gillis is sending so many mixed messages.

Along with the fact there only seems to be like 2-3 teams out of it (or at least would believe they are) there won't be many sellers this year... a lot of delusional teams there right now. Gillis will not give up 2 1sts and a prospect for a guy like ruutu.
