IN FOR PAGE 2!!!

:alonehappy:

:okay:

How many contracts can the Nucks buyout?
And is JB willing to use those buyouts to get rid of anyone?

I can't see the Canucks buying anyone out this year, I can see them trading Juice tho

PAGE 2!

:badpokerface:

We could buy out everyone if we want to.

If you're referring to compliance buy-outs, each team could use up to two and they were only available until the end of June 2014. We used ours on Ballard and Booth.

Yea I just don't see why anyone on the team needs to be bought out.

Everyone on the Canucks are winners and sure to be excellent in their roles.

KB3 has said he wants to stay in Vancouver and he has a NTC, so it's ultimately up to him if he's willing to give the Canucks that courtesy of moving if they ask him to.

He's also in his final year, so the Canucks are either going to trade him and bring up one of the kids, or they'll be forced to extend him.

what the roster looks like (barring trades/ufa)

sedin-sedin-burrows
baert-bonino-vrbata
kenins-horvat-hansen
higgins-vey-dorsett
virtanen kassian

edler-tanev
hamhuis-bieksa
sbisa-corrado
clendenning

miller
lack
markstrom

obviously one goalie is gone which would make it barely cap complaint

camp: grenier, gaunce might force someone out. but i think they need another year of solid play in the ahl first

tradechips: kassian,a goalie,higgins,hansen,vrbata,jensen
someone on the wing has to go, too crowded. imo kassian or vrbata. bieksa sinks with the ship, as hes one of the anchors.

top 5 prospects (no specific order)
virtanen
demko
cassels
mccann
stewart :troll:

The only way they'll trade Vrbata is if the Canucks are out of playoff contention before the deadline and they feel they can pick up someone with his salary cap.

Here's a list of the upcoming free agents for next season:

With such a weak UFA pool this season, hopefully theres some big trades at the draft :high:

damn, that UFA pool is as cringe-worthy as the projected roster next season.

they need to force KBlock3 to retire, if he really wants to have a good impact on the team, just retire and take on a coaching role.

I hope Cassels and McCann get serious looks and that Kenins proves he's no one season wonder.

Cant wait for the draft

Canucks need to clean house on D. So many young guys in the system that have been honing their skills in the AHL for the past several seasons. Look at top teams like Chicago, Anaheim, Tampa, etc. All throw 20 year old rookies into the fire because that is how it is in today's cap world. Would like to see one or two of Peter Andersson (who is completely underrated), Andrey Pedan, Adam Clendening, or Frank Corrado.

saw on tsn.ca
Canucks have 40:1 odds to win the cup next season.
Oilers are slightly better at 33:1 LOL:lawl:

Noooo not first page...... 2nd page HYPE!

LOL @ this picture, half the team doesn't know how many fingers to throw up. The mainstays are like YEA THREE. Richards is like, but I only got 2...Some are like it's my first one doe.

:pokerface:
well, that's it.
we've hit rock bottom.

for those who know of hockey widows credibility. hamhuis open to trade, would prefer to go to a warm place if traded

what does that even mean.
is "hockey widows" some sort of source?

Trade our most reliable defenseman? :rukidding:

Based on your reasoning though.. You basically answered yourself as to why everyone was holding up different number of fingers...
