I think it will happen. The twins see the writing on the wall and will do the right thing. They will look for a contending opportunity and happily help land this team a deal that could be huge for the future. Think what an additional two first round picks and a young player can add to this teams rebuilding process. A contender would be getting a offensive line and a gigantic boost to their PP going into the playoffs.

I imagine the Canucks would have to take some salary back but hopefully it would be an expiring contract or two. Maybe flip them immediately to a team looking for rentals.... possibilities.... excitement.

That a scout and ex-player with zero experience are running this team? I agree, they should get out now. I know I would.

Carol I think we should have a contest to see who can come up with the best Sedin trade scenario

We need a or the Bobby Orr or is this going to be plausible trades?

Making a run for the playoffs, why would you trade them? Why would a GM trade for them at the draft when they are both UFA's?

I'm convinced that Aquilini in now on board with the rebuild. Bieksa looking at houses says that he knew that he was being moved. It doesn't matter what Benning says it's what he does, I am very happy with what he is doing.

Makes no sense. You think the Sedins are fooling themselves and think this management is building a contender before their contracts expire? What you just said has very little influence on the present for them.

I thought you did get out... again.

weak

I'm thinking we can spend the month of August musing on the Sedins, when nothing else is going on.

For now, I'm going to stay focused on the kids. Development camp and Jake Virtanen in today's blog:

That scout and ex player got a Canucks team in the playoffs last year that really had no right to be there. Let's see what they can do with the youth. Sedins are gonna wanna stick around for a bit...

Just finished watching the 3-3 tourney in Shawnigan. I'm not a pro scout but I've played hockey my entire life and spend way too much time watching and reading about it. Here's a couple thoughts on the players on the ice.

Boeser's shot is everything they say it is. Kid sniped two goals in five minutes both of them on his back leg. Super impressed. Plays with a scowl and looks determined as hell.

McCann carries himself like he's the boss out there. Looks like Corey Perry and isn't afraid to mix it up. He's going to be a great NHLer. Fired a laser of a wrist shot from the top of the circle and scored.

Zhukenov was the biggest surprise, the kid has ridiculous hands and really good wheels. He could be an absolute steal. Didn't look out of place at all.

Subban surprised me too. He has super slick hands and doesn't look like he's too small to be out there. Half of the guys on the ice were 6'3". He has great vision and pick handling skills. Legitimately looked like his older brother out there a couple times.

Hutton looks like a good all around defenceman. Mobile, confident with the puck. Reminds me a bit of Chris Tanev.

Cederholm is a beast and has much better wheels then a few people on here have made it sound.

Lastly Mackenzie Stewart really made some smart plays and looks really confident. He has great potential if he's developed properly.

Didn't get to see Jake, Cole or Demko play either and I left feeling really stoked about the future of the team.

Thanks for the write up - I'm excited for our future even if not for the next 2-3 years.

Can't go wrong and is tastier than the rotisserie chicken you see in all the stores.

I have been on a bit of a bbq chicken drumstick binge this summer.

Toss the drumsticks in a large bowl with a little olive oil and worsterwhatever sauce (love that stuff), and add pepper, salt, poultry seasoning (rosemary, sage, savoury, - anything you would season turkey with...), onion powder, garlic powder and curry powder. toss with all the dry spices and try to get everything coated up. stick this in the fridge for a few hours or overnight, take it out a bit before putting on the bbq. Start out on the grill for a 5 or 10 minutes and then move it to the upper rack for about 30 minutes and then give it a try (about 40 mins or a little longer total). Med+ setting on bbq.
