The Bolland camp won't do anything with Vancouver until they resolve the Ryan Kesler situation. | makes sense...doubt anything major will happen until the floodgates open at the draft.

No thanks to Bolland. He's played ~50 games over the past 2 seasons combined

Bolland wanted somewhere around $5mil per for 7 years from the Leafs. Wouldn't want him at that price nor term, he's a 3rd line center ideally

Bolland as the replacement for Kesler?
Hope the Canucks target and sign Steve Ott. Drafted by Benning in Buffalo and coached by Desjardins when he was as assistant in Dallas, so the connection is there
Great faceoff and bottom 6 player

Great faceoff and bottom 6 player | hhaha had the same reaction. Bolland in Van? fuck that...he's crazy for asking that much term, only place he'll end up is on a team looking to get to the cap floor.
I'd rather take my chances with Malone and his coke habit for a year.

Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun now
I believe that Gaborik's 7-yr deal is worth around $4.9 M or $5 M a year. I am working to confirm.
| Damn...how the hell does the Kings have all that cap space?

#Canucks have called 2 big names UFA's today - Dave Bolland and Ryan Miller.
| Apparently we called Miller too?
murd0c is right, I'm pretty excited this week on news from the Canucks.
Kesler Trade
#1 pick trade maybe...
UFA

Bolland is looking for a retirement contract. Not happy about giving up 3 picks for him if he finds another team. As always, no player is willing to play for a hometown discount in Toronto and I can't blame them.

Bolland wants an 8 year deal worth Gaborik money....
Also wouldn't mind Miller on a short term... not confident with Lack/Markstrom duo..
Wouldn't mind waiting another year when Schneider is a UFA either |

Have to believe Vancouver would be on Miller's list with his actress wife, or at least 3rd behind Anaheim and SJ. If Anaheim wants a vet to pair with either Gibson/Anderssen and SJ looking to move Niemi

Gaborik for 5M per year sounds pretty good but for 7 years he is already 32 and has a history of injuries.
If he can stay healthy and keep playing the way he has this season it could be a bargain for the Kings, this year and especially playoffs he looked completely different than the Gaborik that played for NYR he was going to the front of the net getting hit and not shying away from physical play I hope he can keep it up I was sad to see him leave from NYR I would of liked to see him play under Vigneault
Nikita Nikitin only got 400k less per year than Gaborik

Doesn't hurt to put an offer for him

It's great to hear that Benning is on good terms with a lot of people.
Unlike our previous GM...

cap goes up | I didn't know that when I posted, I thought in the new CBA all players 35 or over if retired with years left would carry a cap penalty? or is that only when bought out?
The only part I didn't like was the length, the cap hit is really good
Callahan's new contract for TBL
