Matthew Sekeres:
Kevin Bieksa, Christian Ehrhoff and Sami Salo all suggest they would take less to remain Canucks. UFAs as of July 1.

Matthew Sekeres:
Bieksa put it bluntly, Salo said $ wouldn't be an issue, and Ehrhoff hinted at it.

Interesting interesting

Pretty similar. That's all that matters to us fans...

But yes, his inconsistency is very troublesome. During playoffs,
there isn't time for a slump. The season's over before you snap out of it.

But that being said, I'm not sure what other goalie's superhuman like Thomas. (But you have to remember his D played a big role too).
It's hard to say Schneider would have done better. We can only speculate that, because he wasn't playing most of the time.
So he by default gets a win...?

Thomas' cap hit is for the next 2-3 years, Luu's cap hit is for 10 more years, at 5.3million. you think in 5 years he's going to be worth 5.3million?
sorry i disagree, i've never really been a Luongo fan, of course i see that he's a great goalie, but his mental strength is as good as a 5 year old trying to hold out on candy, sometimes when we're losing 3-0 he closes the door and sometimes he let's in 5 soft ones.

No bagging on him, but that contract he signed? fuck that.

i hope so, i like our D core, but Ehrhoff has to be more disciplined and defensively aware in our zone.

and salo's just old, but solid

Greenstoner 06-17-2011 11:05 AM

i like Ehroff, i hope he stays ... his jersey would be my next buy :D

Also don't know if this has been posted but Hank was playing with a back injury from a crosscheck in round 2.

i think we all know lu isn't going to play all 12 years. it was clearly to circumvent the cap and it's a fair assumption that he will retire before the end of it. when that happens remains to be seen.

I'm pretty sure bieksa, salo and erhoff knows what's at stake here. Being so close to winning the cup this year means they have a very good shot again next year and hopefully succeed rather than taking more $$ and not having the same chance elsewhere. They now know what it takes and they all can take this learning experience and use it to their advantage next year.

Salo should get no more than 1mil IMO.

AzNightmare 06-17-2011 01:03 PM

So if Schneider is staying, we're not using his as a trading chip then I guess?

That's sort of what Gillis implies. It wasn't just straight "Cory Schneider WILL be on our team next year. "

oh yea definitely dont see him playing in his 40s and we all know it was to push the cap hit down as much as possible so that he could make that 10 million this and last year, but my point is the cap hit isn't so bad now, but it gets much worse sooner than later.

Do you even know what you are talking about?

At the time, Luongo was the best option. When did Ehrhoff have discipline issues?!

nosaj 06-17-2011 02:31 PM

I would love to have the same D core for next year! :)

let's just hope that Salo doesn't play anymore floor hockey this summer :D

Harvey Specter 06-17-2011 02:41 PM

Imo Gillis will trade Cory if he's 100% confident with Lu in goal. If not, he'll keep Cory around for another season and worry about his goaltending next season.

Durrann 06-17-2011 02:42 PM

boy just reading this thread..makes me sad

i keep replaying in my head...the atmosphere we would of had..if we'd won it all.

"what if"

lets do it all over again next season...!

The problem I see is... Schneider has not been tested.
Like I said eariler, fans rate him above Luongo by default right now.

But I'm not sure are some of the opinions based on Schneider is better than Luongo now, or in Schneider's prime, he will be better than Luongo?

Either way, this will probably be a gamble... but this is all assuming if Luongo wants out on his own, since we can't even think of getting rid of him until so.

The guy is injury prone....iunno if that's what I'd want on this team.
