Lidstrom won't get the Norris.
As far as pending free agents who are totally underrated/flying under the radar, what do you guys think of a guy like Keith Yandle? Granted he is due for a big pay raise (only making 1.3 this year, which is amazing for 59 pt). But he could be a good replacement if we lose both Salo and Bieksa in the offseason.

He's a RFA theres no way Canucks will throw him an offer sheet and give up picks to have him when they can just re-sign Salo or Bieksa for cheaper and dont have to give up anything

Besides the RFA thing for Yandle, management needs to make a decisions on Salo, Bieksa, AND Ehrhoff too.

Keith Yandle is in for a HUGE raise
Dude has been a beast on the Phoenix blue line for the past 3 years
08/09 - 69gp - 4g - 26a - 30p
09/10 - 82gp - 12g - 29a - 41p
10/11 - 82 gp - 11g - 48a - 59p
He's only 24 so he's just about to hit the prime of his career. He's saved me in my hockey pool more than once this season.

I hope we re-sign Ehrhoff. There's always good news about him on Twitter being posted from media and fans saying how he's always out there and willing to autograph every fan's memorabilia before leaving.
There were about 50 fans waiting by the Canucks bus after the Flames game on Saturday and he walked up and signed all their stuff before heading into the bus.
Guys like that are crucial to having a successful team.

Only thing Couture has on Skinner is the fact that he's +18 but when you're playing on one of the best teams in the league than you're kinda fail if you're not a plus player. Skinner stepped in and ended up being the Canes 2nd leading scorer at an age where he's not even legal to drink down there 
Skinner will win it.

Canucks' trio win NHL trophies
Sunday, 04.10.2011 / 8:35 PM / NHL Awards NHL.com
Three members of the Vancouver Canucks, who helped their club capture the Presidents' Trophy for posting the NHL's best record, have added individual awards as the 2010-11 regular-season schedule concluded today. Left wing Daniel Sedin won his first career Art Ross Trophy as NHL scoring leader, while Roberto Luongo and Cory Schneider earned the William Jennings Trophy as the goaltenders on the club allowing the fewest goals.
Anaheim Ducks right wing Corey Perry, a potential Hart Trophy finalist, joined the Canucks' trio as an award winner, capturing the Maurice Richard Trophy as the League's goal-scoring leader.
The four trophy winners will be honored at the 2011 NHL Awards, to be held in Las Vegas on Wednesday, June 22.
Sedin kept the Art Ross Trophy in the family by finishing the season with a League-leading and career-high 104 points (41 goals, 63 assists). With twin brother Henrik claiming the award in 2009-10, this marks the first time in League history that brothers have won scoring titles in consecutive seasons. Daniel sparked the League's top-ranked power-play unit by tallying a League-leading 18 goals and 42 points with the man advantage. He also tied for second place among NHL forwards in plus-minus (plus-30).

I hate CBC for taking Jim Hughson away from our local broadcasts. His talents are wasted announcing Leaf games.
Question is, what does CBC have him do for the other 6 days of the week usually during the regular season?

And I imagine the Laffs requested him... and what the Laffs want, the Laffs get.
He's a BC boy and an admitted Canucks fan, I'm sure he'd be calling more of our games, given the choice.
