General manager told Friedman today that he expects a boatload (Friedman's term, not GM's) of trades coming...


Let's hope there's some truth to this.

Speaking of boatloads , I haven't seen Kaaptan around lately

I doubt it, I don't think you'll see much yet, the draft isn't about to start and the desperation hasn't hit it's peak yet.

Too bad it has to come to that, why can't gm's just make reasonable deals?

Ward wants big money and 4 years . No thanks
- VANTEL


Ok, not to be a dank, but I told you Ward would want the big coin a while back. If Beleskey can demand north of $4 million, does Ward get $5.5-6? Good job on that whole CBA, guys

Beleskey gets more than Ward IMO

I guess he's got versatility going for him, unlike Ward who is pretty much one dimensional. I'm curious as to what he'll sign for, as that will be one of those 'dominos' for players of his ilk, which there now seems to be a few of - a guy that can do a little bit of this, a little bit of that, while also chipping in offensively. Is that worth north of $5?

Beleskey has age going for him, he's young for a UFA so he'll get both term and money. I wasn't shocked at all that he turned down 4x4 from Anaheim.

Just looked at the Canucks schedule for next season. I will be boycotting the home game on HNIC @ 4:00pm local time as the Toronto Maple Leafs visit on Sat. Feb. 13.

Yes but it's a very well done production. First season was outstanding...haven't seen the second yet...

Former OTT head coach Paul MacLean is on verge of taking an assistant coach position with ANA. Ducks had previously asked OTT for permission

For some reason, I thought he was quite a bit older than that. That will certainly put him ahead of Ward at least, as you noted. What do you think he'll ultimately get on the market? (I don't think the Ducks sign him for anything over $5, though - good grief, I just noted he's only scored 20 goals ONCE and that was last year- cashing in already, eh?

I don't think Boudreau is on solid ground in Anaheim.

He did just get his team to game 7 of the SCF against perhaps the best team of recent times.

anyway, Maclean is a good coach who would be an improvement over a number of NHL head coaches IMO.
