I hate Florida trades but good off the map choice as long as it is cheap.

Boychuck and Thorton was a loss of two tough players . Chara out, LUcic is the lone BadBoy now. Even Marchand is quiet. Chara is getting long in the tooth. I don't see them coming out of the East.

But that doesn't mean it can't happen ...it's the east

His salary is not but he is only a season away from free agency and we have the space I think. On a team that isn't doing that great and a young core of defence eating up minutes. I do however agree with you that I hate the florida deals as well.

He is a decent scenario, I still would like to trade for a permanent fixture that is younger.

I think Rangers again come out from there but could see the Isles or Habs also

Pens need some forwards but safe choices.

I would love to see the isles do damage in the playoffs ...I think they have to win a round before we see them come out of the east

I said it on here before and got laughed at ...their GM has made great moves and turned a last place team into a first place ...for all the poop moves he has made over the years if your just looking at this year he has been one of the best GMs

"... the Edmonton Oilers are interested in dealing forward David Perron.
Oilers general manager Craig MacTavish is reportedly looking for a top line centre in return for the 26-year-old."

Sure, I'd love a top line centre for a winger with 1 good year on his resume and 2 goals in 21 games this year. Where do we sign up for that trade?

Anyone else cheer when they saw Lucic get knocked last night?

It was a thing of beauty.

If Canucks can trade Burrows for a second at TDL they would have about 18.5 in space next year with 13 players on the big team.

I would re-sign Dorsett Mathias and Richardson at close to current salary , offer Tanev about 4.2 for 5 years or more.

Target Franson at 2 mil and Foligno around 4.5

Bored waiting for the game.

If it was a 5/6 Dman down for months I would embrace Salo. The season can slip by fast trying to replace you top guy with a maybe this guy will work. Our D is thin to begin with
- VANTEL


Ya true enough. Half of me thinks that we need Salo's right hand shot and PP creativity so bad and the other half says a guy like Myers really is the way to go. Bottom line is I guess we needed a top 4 D when Hammer was healthy and now we need it more than ever. Lack and/or Markstrom + Hansen + Gaunce + 2nd rounder might get it done but Buffalo is gonna want Jensen/Virtanen/ Horvat or Shink and I'm not sure we can part with any of those guys IMO. Gonna be a tough deal to get done even if Benning is looking at Myers at all...which he should be.

If JB is able to somehow snag a top 4 D that still leaves us with only Higgins (who I like) and Burrows on the 2nd line with Bonino. yipes...

Lots of work to do JB

Franson is gonna get 4+ from someone and Foligno is gonna get 5+(both long-term).

Someone signing Franson at 4 mil is dumb

I can see Foligno getting 5

Canucks aren't good enough to be in a position to trade good prospects or high picks for a legit top 4 d-man. Gonna have to try to buy-low and/or just find another bottom pairing d-man if they want a bandaid option.
- Nucker101


Top 4 Dman? I think we can make a trade without breaking the bank.

Top Pairing Dman? I agree with you, we don't have it to make that trade.

It's gonna happen, teams are desperate for defensemen. Both guys will be overpaid.
