plus he has a huge salary... if you're the leafs, you pretty much take what you can get in that scenario.

Leafs lose McCabe's offensive skills but they gain a pretty solid defenseman in Mike Van Ryn.

God can we not talk about Parrish.. fuck i'd rather just keep the players we have instead of grabbing this plug.
There has to be other guys out there.. I can't believe this is Plan B.

i don't see him signing for less than that. i know $5mill is a stretch and that would be a desperation "i need this guy" kinda signing, but realistically his market value would be around the $4mill mark | 4 mill........you're insane. He gets no more than 2.5 a year.

Parrish is not a terrible player. If he could be signed for $1-2 million, I don't think he could be considered a plug. He has decent size and some offensive ability. I think it was stifled in Minnesota's defensive system and coming to Vancouver may rejuvenate his career.

What are the Nuxs doing, if we can't get Sundin, we'll have to settle for Parrish. Sundin and Parrish aren't even in the same league, one scores about 80pts per season, another scores about 30ish pts per season. I don't see how Parrish can help us.

You guys are acting like we are going to spend $10 million on Parrish.
Keep in mind that Parrish will get around $2 million. A lot of other players can be picked up with an extra $7-8 million. Direct comparisons are fruitless at this point.

Did you guys here that sedins agent is looking to get them 6.5 - 7mill a yr. He was on the team1040 yesterday and he was compareing the sedins to horcoff, Gomez & Dury.
All I can say is that I personally think it would be better off to trade them. Get a high pic or a good prospect and have that extra cash to extend lou and get hopefully 2 - 3 top line forwards if sudin doesn't sign.

I'd hope the Sedins take a hometown discount at around $5.5m. They're 80 point guys and that would easily net $6-6.5 in this market. Imagine them on our second line if Sundin signs...they'd have so much more freedom and be much more dangerous.

^ right now the agent said that him and the canucks are very far off. Said that they want a min 6.5 a yr. Which yes they put up the points but hjavn't produced in the play off's and are far from a physical type top line player which we really need.

If we sign Parrish to 6.5M, you know we're in deep trouble.
