By that same logic, if you were in charge you would have traded Yzerman by '95/'96 because he was a nice guy but just didn't have what it takes, right?

I think we're talking about 2 different eras, the Red Wings were able to spend more money on free agents back when there wasn't a salary cap. If you look back at those teams Stevie Y was the leader no argument there, but the Wings were able to go out and surround him with players that played a different kind of game that helped him. With the salary cap being the way it is know the Canucks will have a hard time fitting in the kind of players that would help take the Canucks to the next level.

Spell check is your friend.

Also, the Sedins are MUCH better than both Perry and Getzlaf. We'd lose that deal VERY badly.

I agree with Roger Federer. Have you seen how weak Getzlaf's game has become? Anyhow, if it is feedback you are after, you'd get more by starting a thread on the discussion board - armchair GM, trade proposals...

Sedins are the better regular season players, but Getzlaf and Perry would suit us better in the playoffs.Please don't misunderstand me I like the Sedins very much this has everything to do about the playoffs when the checking gets tougher and the refs call the game different. You need bigger players who can withstand the punishment.

The Sedins playoff numbers aren't that good.

Did you misspell most names on purpose?

almost every player's numbers aren't as good in the playoffs - it is not just refs (who should stick to calling the game as it is supposed to be) or 'playoff hockey' - the competition is also far better and every team left standing has a couple two top notch defensive pairings. withstand the punishment? did you see the Eager hit last year? or the endless cheap shots? no one withstands more punishment than the Sedins, and they keep on trucking.

"nut job" pretty much covers it.

Except Linden, his ppg numbers are almost exactly opposite of the Sedins. But that's incredibly rare and in Lindens era the game often opened up more during the playoffs.

They were a game away from winning it all, just keep that in mind when you say that can't play in the playoffs.

major failure.....Sedin has NTC/NMC go away troll

Getzlaf.. is overrated. Plus, the NTC/NMC that trevor has pointed out. Plus perry and getzlaf do not even have the amount of points that the Sedins use. The Sedins are almost always top 10 in points at the end of the year. They will be in Vancouver until they retire. They are the image of the Canucks really, and hell i am perfectly fine with them staying here.

Anyways..

NTC/ perry and getz don't equal to sedins even in playoffs.

GTFO.

You had too much to drink. Please go to bed.

Over the last 3 years, the Sedins are damn close to being point a game players in the playoffs

That would be one of the more insane moves a GM could ever do to a team.

Deal away 2 of the best draft picks the Canucks have ever had and subtract offence?!!

You may want to consider taking your blog down.

This idea and your writing style of the idea are terrible. On what planet do you get better by trading away 2 of the top 15 players in the league? What exactly do you want back that would make a hill of beans difference for the better? There is no comfort for you that Anaheim would make this trade in a heartbeat, because they come out the winners no matter how you slice it. The Twins are TWO PLAYERS, not one, who reside currently in the top five producing players in the league. Over the past decade they have always been in the top 15, you can't possibly be serious. I would stop blogging were I you.

You obviously don't 'knowitall' if you suggest we trade the Sedin's

Maybe we could just Borrow Getslaf and Perry instead of actually trading for them.
