On Erik Gudbranson>

Deal is getting VERY Close I am told...So close that it is likely in the next few days...Sounds like the Leafs and Sabres are the closest...followed by the NY Islanders...

Let's start debating the offers

If that is from Eklund than it is probably the furthest from the truth.

What is the source? Complete bull sh!t Manvan.

Leafs have 2, 2nd round picks.
NYIs have 2, 1sts and 2, 2nds
Buf has their normal 1st, 2nd, no 3rd

Why would Buffalo trade for a UFA? Horse sh!t

Gudbranson for anything would be a win at this point.

There is always a possibility for a sign and trade.

Well the quote is from EK

It was talked about back in Nov on a radio show by Renad Lavoie.

I read somewhere else that Andrew Nielsen was a player wanted back if they traded Guds to TML but i'm struggling to find the quote.

Hes a UFA and one who has underperformed tremendously. Anything more than a 2nd round pick is an absolute steal imo

Is this like when people said that Burrow's wasn't worth a 5th round pick and Hansen wouldn't fetch a 3rd?

No it wasn't . It was something we needed . He does make it harder to play against .

When we had a healthy line up we were giving up very few goals per game .

This. All day, everyday since the day Nuck5me started here. Shots fired aplenty today, so might as well add me to the list. Not a day goes by where you don’t find a reason to find slight in people’s comments, even if they aren’t directed at you. You are a small child of a man without any ability to think beyond your own meager life and line of reasoning. Get over yourself kid.


Was this directed at you?

I hoestly didn’t think anyone would trade for Burrows. He is and was trash. Jim deserves credit as he robbed Dorion.

Hindsight, it didn't turn out how we may have wanted but I think it was what many wanted.

We wanted a dman that was physical and hard to play against. He hasn't always been that, we have see a few glimpses... not enough though.

Just like the arguments against DD.

In reality, for the Canucks, we have lacked that grit in the lineup without these sorts of players. People say you get these sort of players through ufa, but we historically haven't been successful with that approach.
