Hiring a coach who is 57 and has no NHL playing or coaching experience is going to be just as good as giving Lou the C back in the day. Why does only Vancouver try these weird things when you had a Stanley Cup winning coach who gets along with Kesler available?

Exactly why I said Dan Byslma should be hired first and foremost above anyone else. No substitute for Stanley Cup Winning coaches.

Head Coach: Byslma
Assistants: Boucher & Oates

Sorry if I missed/am missing something, but all the games that aren't labeled SN, CBC etc are going to be on what channel? Even Canucks.com have left a bunch of games blank..

Want to consider what channels I might order as I'm trying to reduce the ol' cable bill

Matthew Sekeres @mattsekeres
Was just told Desjardins spurned #Pens b/c offer was for 2 years only, no authority to hire own assts. Now expected to be hired by #Canucks

One team that has definitely made an offer? Vancouver. I believe it included their first pick in this draft (which is sixth overall) and Hunter Shinkaruk, who was taken 24th in 2013. There was at least one other piece, probably off the main roster, but I can't pin it down. It's not Ryan Kesler, who won't go there.
http://www.cbc.ca/sports-content/hoc...mit-early.html

Friedman saying Canucks offered 6th pick + Shinkaruk + another player for 1st overall.

not sure how I feel about trading Shinkaruk and possibly Ehlers at #6. Both are potential game changers

... but so are Ekblad and Reinhart at #1

Flyers trade F Hartnell to Blue Jackets for Umberger

Quote:
The Philadelphia Flyers have traded forward Scott Hartnell to the Columbus Blue Jackets in exchange for restricted free agent R.J. Umberger on Monday.

Umberger scored 18 goals and added 16 assists with a minus-3 rating in 74 games with the Blue Jackets in 2013-2014.

The 32-year-old has three years left on his contract with an average annual value of $4.6 million.

Umberger has 169 goals and 197 assists for 366 points in 673 career games with the Blue Jackets and Philadelphia Flyers.

The American was selected by the Vancouver Canucks in the first round (16th overall) of the 2001 NHL Entry Draft.

Not sure about Shinkaruk after surgery. I do like his attitude and willingness to win.

But for Ekblad or Reinhart, can't help but think about the player they projected to become and you will see it's worth it.

On #Canucks inhouse video on Desjardins, when new coach talks about leaders, no images of Kesler. Really big week.

Umberger and Hartnell are pretty equivalent but Umberger is cheaper and has a shorter contract ... Plus CBJ gave up a pick to boot ...
