quick..everyone back on the wagon!! Quote:

what would lead you to believe that demitra would be the captain? if anything, it would be sundin. yes, he would probably receive scrutiny like he did when he took the "C" in toronto, but sundin has the qaulities. besides, would you want a captain who can get injured at anytime?(and no, i don't have anything against demitra). of course mitchell may still end up being the prime candidate for captaincy over those 2 Quote:

Speaking of captains. If Sundin or Demitra sign in the future will either wear the C or A? I would assume Sundin would wear an A.
This season is definately going to take some getting used to (in regards to players lost and found). |

Bringing in Sundin would be great for the development of the Sedins IMO.
Is there any truth to a rumour I read on another forum that Sundin is in Vancouver right now?

If it is scheduled, what exactly is he doing here? IIRC, as of July 1st, he was in his hometown in Sweden?

if we sign demitra and bring in sundin, our pp would be pretty lethal. I would definitely be interested to see demitra on the same line as the sedins to see what kinda numbers they would put up.

i'd much prefer if demitra was paired with sundin.

Beh, nothing to get so excited yet. We have no idea how Demitra will be like on this team.
And I still think Sundin's chance of wanting to play for Vancouver is low.

Demitra was awful last season but that been said I think he'll be a good fit in the overall scheme of things.

Unfortunately, assembling a first line with players who have had successess in the past does not guarantee they will have chemistry here.
It's a gamble.

Kev | Which is why getting all upset about not getting mid-grade UFAs is silly, too... would it have been nice to see Marian Hossa with the Sedins? Sure... maybe. There might have been no chemistry and all three might have tanked.

Bottom line is, we lost what... 32 goals from the two of them?
Respect is earned. And 32 goals for $9 million combined salary is not going to gain them much respect around these parts.

Ohlund is willing to help lure Mats Sundin!!
"If Mats calls, trust me I will put in a good word for the team," Ohlund chuckled Monday from his summer home in northern Sweden. "I haven't spoken to him or the Canucks or anybody regarding him. Maybe I should call him. I don't know if it would help or not. I guess it couldn't hurt."
