This is exactly what I mean. I'm aware that Lu's contract is mostly safe but seriously, all this garbage is just stupid. It isn't as if the long contracts create an uneven playing field...everyone is welcome to do it. It's just that some owners don't spend to the cap ceiling and they're usually the ones in shitty hockey markets that lose money every year. Bettman should be more focused on moving those teams where people will appreciate them.

And player salaries are higher now than before the lockout. If anything, it's the NHL's fault that they didn't look at stuff like this more closely.

Circumvention is more like if they paid Louie $1 a year and then paid him through another company for endorsement deals his $6m a year. Something like that. All the long contracts that are currently signed...I'd call that "creative use of CBA mechanics".

Anyone check out the new Canucks team store yet? A lot of cheap stuff but not too much selections (compared to the one at GM.. err Rogers Arena) as expected.

I didn't notice he watched our playoff games. Does he live in Van during the off season?

My mom (a 60-year old woman) once saw Ohlund in real life and she said he was massive.

I ran into Ohlund at the Van airport when I was coming back from Sweden a couple years ago. His family was on the same flight as mine and he was there to meet/pick them up. Yes, he's huge lol. I wanted to say hi but didn't want to bother him.

I've met Ohlund before. That dude is massive. The Canucks often said that he was the strongest and fittest on the team.

I met and took a pic with him 9 years ago when I was in grade 11 at save-ons. I can take him on.


Just kidding he'd pound my face in.

the battles he had with Iginla were one to remember.

might have been in 07 when we started the season against the Flames. He lays a monsterous hit on Iginla in our own zone. Iginla goes ballistic and starts hitting everything in his path which eventually draws a penalty to himself. Loved it

Too bad he couldn't have jumped on the ice and showed people how it's done.
lol, Canucks needed as much help as they could get with all the injuries during the playoffs.
