Its not the end of the fukken world...
In the world of business you don't have a salary cap and you don't retain the rights to your employees like you do in the sporting world. The mainthing I really disagree with is you saying it's not a big deal if we don't sign them that they can be replaced. They cannot be easily replaced in the short term, not through free agency and if you do it through trades you're doing it at a cost because you have to give something to get something. Gaborik is more of a support player since he's hurt so often, you cannot rely on him to lead your team because he's gone a good chunk of the time. A great talent when he's healthy but unfortunately he's hurt a lot.

If this team wants a real shot at winning in the short term they need to sign the Sedins. If they want to rebuild that's fine to I wouldn't even have a problem with that. I'm just saying do it balls out or don't do it at all. Either sign them or get rid of them and shred the team so you can be really bad for a few years. Any players they bring in here on the short term without the Sedins here aren't going to take us to a higher level then we were at last season. If they can some how sign the Sedins and Gaborik then obviously that would be sick but under the cap system it would be tough.

The market says what players are worth and they'll get their money if not here in Toronto or Montreal.
