Yeah, that look on Naslund's face during the last game of the regular season when the fans were saluting Linden, he did not look like a happy camper...

well obviously I know that there is a difference, I'm simply making an alternate route we possibly could go considering the landscape of the free agent market. Would we want to sign Sundin and risk Messier 2.0 or develop young guys while suffering a little? I also made this comment because I've heard from friends that do watch hockey that the Tavares guy is good, and that we could get him if we get the number 1 pick. HOWEVER, when I wrote the comment I didn't know NHL draft has a lottery, so the whole idea effectively has gone to shit! LOL.....now I'm worried.....

p.s. watch Naslund score like a hatrick on us when he makes a return to play the Canucks lol

Before Gilles was hired as GM, it was mentioined that this league is like the Men's club. Gilles is the rookie and no one will give him the time of day, and it looks like it is happening.

For what? A bag of pucks and sticks? The pool for signable players is getting thiner and thiner. Unless they can sign guy off the street, aka me, there is not much talent left.

most of those ufa's are dman

sigh, im not that pissed that nazzy left. im more worried that at least when he was here, thats still more offence than we have atm...

imo pull up the farm boys and let em play, might as well since Gillis isnt gonna sign anyone apparently.
at least tampa and oils are TRYING to rebuild and build a cup contending team.

i wonder if we can get sakic for a good deal. He brings veteranship to the team, as well as leadership. Plus let him play in his old town again. Last season he came back from injury and kicked some ass.

Kesler for captain? LOL. He's still a noob. Mitchell is the only real candidate. I'll rather give it to Bieksa over ohlund or sedin. I'm not sure about ohlund, but sedin doesn't seem like a guy I could take seriously in a locker room. Probably because I've never seen him hammer someone into the glass when things weren't going his way.

Ohlund should get it just based on the fact that he's been with the Canucks since 94

mitchel or ohlund. i think ohlund is a little too soft spoken tho. mitchel is the perfect captain.


the thing that bothers me about naslund is how he always said "I will retire a canuck" and then he goes and signs not just a 1 but a 2 year deal. you cant tell me the canucks didnt offer him $4m to stay either.






we're so fucked

Of the UFA's listed, I would like to see Brendan Shanahan here to play alongside the Sedins.

However, I think they would still need to pick up a couple of more names off that list to assemble another line with some threat of scoring.

I heard through CKNW that Naslund was never made an offer by the Canucks.

Furthermore, he went on to say that his decision on what team to choose was based on which team he thought is a contender. Hence, he chose the Rangers.

So much for moving home.

That's never gonna happen. Sakic started his carrer in the Nordiques/Avs franchise and chances are he's gonna finish it with those teams. I also heard that he doesn't want to play for Vancouver because of all the hype and pressure of him to do well being the hometown boy will make him fail.

Apparently Ohlund gave up the C some years back so Naslund could have it because he didn't think he was spoken enough. I remember hearing somewhere that Ohlund was gonna get it, but i think Mitchel is better cuz he's more outspoken.

lol

speaking of Luongo.. you gotta be wondering what is going thru his head.. I mean his team is falling apart in front of him.

He left Florida for a reason.

The Canucks are the new Florida Panthers. Sorry Lu!
