Isn't July 1st the day to sign Free Agents?
Yes ,but you can re sign players in the last year of their contract without anyone else making offers, and they acquired his rights. The last year on his previous contract was last year ,meaning whoever had his negotiation rights had till tomorrow to have exclusive contract talks with him. Tomorrow, anyone could have gone after him

If I had Mathieu Schneider's smile, Taylor Pyatt's eyes, Trevor Linden's personality, Luongo's money and Kevin Bieksa's sense of humour, I would get laid as much as Shane O'Brien.
Nope, the sedins are replaceable and it will be no BIG DEAL if they leave. The notion of a rebuild without the sedins is ridiculous. They're not superstars or anything. They're complementary players who can be replaced easily.
Canucks hockey to me is like Vancouver's weather in August: sunny with a few clouds and a small chance of rain
