I think the Canucks and Bernier can negotiate a contract extension for 2009/10+ but as of right now Bernier is signed for 2.5 and is a RFA again next summer.

As for the bernier deal and not going through in signing him to a long term deal right away, i belive it's because first, it's only for 1 year so at the end of this year a brand new contract could be negotiated and settled before his rights are lost, as well who knows if u want to sign him for 2.5? maybe next year if he underperforms you offer him a long term deal for less then 2.5 over the number of years

He woudlnt be making 2.5 next year but after he has his career year, he'll be able to cash in. If JD made the offer for 3 years at 2.5, it'd be a steal by the 3rd year.

(Rumor) Gaborik wants out of Minny and wants to play with his buddy Demitra. Hes unhappy that Rolston left and Demitra is gonna sign somewhere else. And quite possibly Might be traded to Van for Bieksa + Raymond and a draft pick. Im hoping its true

He's not too fond of Lemaire's trap system and I can see him wanting out with the departure of both Demitra and Rolston. Demitra and Gaborik are very close friends.

read it on CDC and read it on some other hockey forums. but since the source is in slovakian i dunno, http://www.bleskovky.sk/cl/12/247970...jima-o-Demitru
some people have said that Gaborik wants to play with his buddy demitra
and not to mention that`ll he`ll be a UFA next season apparently, and he`s seeking League max to stay in Minny. In Van he will go there for less playing with Demitra. and theres a bunch of threads in the Wild forums saying this too. So its not completly made up.

To wait for him to become a star by then, everyone else is gone, and we are still the same mediocre team with new kids we are waiting for to bloom.

For the record I'd rather have the Sedins.

I'd take Kovalchuk in a heartbeat. As good as the Sedins are, they will never be as good as Kovalchuk, and they're simply too easy to stop. Besides, he's younger and a lot grittier than the Sedins, which this team desperately needs to be able to compete in the West IMO.
And as for Gaborik, he'd be a great investment like Demitra... but only if he stays healthy.
