O'Brien-Schneider
Not too bad if the deal is signed... only problem I can think of is his age.. being 40, he's had some injuries but it shouldn't be too bad overall
Good thing is I guess he brings experience and probably will be a good presence in the locker room.
how much do you think he'll sign for? i'm guessin around 2 mil

Mathieu Schneider was -12 last year... Don't you guys think he's getting too slow to keep up with the game at the age of 40?

They have possesion of the puck like 80% of the time.

he might be slower but remember the puck moves quicker then you can skate. As well hes a D that won't hurt us and just a 1 yr deal won't hurt us for next year

He was only -2 with Montreal and at the time Montreal wasn't playing so hot but he also got 17 points in 23 games.
Yes he's old but we aren't signing him to play 20 + minutes anyways. He will be the bottom 3 which will be fine. The price probably won't be too bad and if this gets done I'm totally on board with it.

I'm not really a fan of Schneider..
Seriously guys, the dude's OLD and he's no Nieds. If we do get him, it needs to be short term and with a VERY low cap hit.

The reports so far seem to say we are after a 1 year deal which is great and I don't think Gillis is dumb enough to offer a sick amount anyways. WE'll probably find out soon.

Now all the Canucks need are Andy and David and then they'll have all 4 Schneider's in the NHL! Another weird fact is all 4 Schneider's are all born in the US of A!

I heard on TV that the deal for Schneider will be for 1 year and 1.5 million. Good signing... it won't cost us any picks/prospects to get a D and he's still pretty good.
He'll definitely help us on the PP which I'm sure everyone complained about for a few seasons... If anybody doesn't like this deal, then there is something wrong.

I can't wait to call him and let him know he's trying out.
