yup. People here may wanna wrap their heads around it early...

but true. It's going to happen. They aren't talking retirement and it's been said they can play as long as they want. Just needs to be 1 yr deals at a time.

Maybe then in three years or so we can start the rebuild

Spoke with a GM yesterday who was guessing that Vegas already had 3 1st-RD picks in their back pocket with more picks to come before Wed

Rebuild? Isn't this a hybrid retool?

If they re-sign those guys it'll be a sad day, it's time to go in a new direction.

It depends whether you ask Trevor or you ask Jim

Rebuilding teams still need a veteran presence, but not them I'm hoping!

If I was a season ticket holder, or for that matter, attend a few games next season, I would be taking signs congratulating them on their retirement. I would also give them a standing ovation every game, maybe they would catch the hint.

The stupid thing will be they come as a package. If Canucks need a center until they find a replacement for Hank why are you bringing back Daniel?

You have 14 mil in cap space go after a younger player who can help the team.

What I don't get is their lack of wanting to win a cup. They could sign for 1mil a yr to be a 3rd line on a contender. They aren't what we need our younger guys to learn from. They need to learn from winners not guys are ok losing, ie: Sedins and Edler.

You can ad Eriksson to that list. Canucks are a retirement home for Swedes.

Another thing if you are keeping Hank as the mentor then expose Sutter .

29 th place teams don't need two mentors at 12 mil to mentor Bo who is better than both
