Drew1 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Hey Guys, Say Salo reitred and jersey number 6 was available and nashville went out in 2nd round, do you think shea weber would want to come , apparently people have heard him say he would love to play here, and if he watched stanley cup finals last year he would have seen how intense it was plus people say suter is leaving nashville especially if lidstrom retires, and why would weber want to stay if he lost his partner , that makes them worse , he could play with Edler , plus he might think if he can get 20 goals 50 points for the preds , imagine with the Sedins and Edler ? Opinions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j3ff Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Everyone in this forum would love for Shea Weber to be on our team next year. Unfortunately it's probably not going to happen because he will be expecting a lot of money, Nashville wants to keep him, and if i'm not mistaken he's still a RFA. Hopefully he wants to come back to BC, takes a discount, and Gillis works some magic An unlikely scenario at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hornet Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Salo is a long time veteran of the team. I don't think they will let someone else wear his number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bo Horvat Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Yeah I think Salo's number is off limits after he leaves. He may not have it retired, but it should at the very least be included in the Canucks' Ring of Honor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xereau Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Weber will get an arbitrated 1 year deal again, for 7.5m this summer, and enter the UFA sweepstakes after next season. Vancouver will be in the running, for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew1 Posted April 28, 2012 Author Share Posted April 28, 2012 If nashville lose suter though and they know Weber will not come back , they can't make the same mistake and let him go , its like Lebron and Dwight, Magic can't lose him for nothing, Do you think canucks could get Suter or is he just about the money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LivingLikeLarry Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Sorry to burst your theory, but Weber wore #2 in Junior and #4 in the AHL, he only wears #6 in NSH because his rookie year Hammy already had that number....wanna get rid of Hammy so Weber can take his number ?.

RyanKeslord17 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 I doubt he cares which number he has... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christophe Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Sorry, but all 30 NHL teams want Weber patrolling their blue line. Unless he won't resign with them and demands a trade, he isn't going anywhere. Not to mention we can't afford his salary without dumping some of our players somewhere.

j3ff Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 we have just a good of a chance at getting weber as anyone... - i dont think suter or weber have had any intention on re-signing in nashville, no matter how well they do this season. they can see the same thing we can, that isnt a sturdy market for hockey so the owner will want to cut back on spending money on quality players...when a player is an rfa or ufa and they only sign a 1 year extension, its never a good sign... - weber will be wanting big money and he has good reason to, he his in most peoples eyes the best defenseman in the NHL. 7.5m is a reasonable number for weber and for the team signing him to an extension. - obviously the only way he gets out of nashville this summer is through trade and that the way i expect it to go down. if suter walks, then why would nsh keep weber when they know he isnt re-signing an extension. his value will be the highest between july 1st and the beginning of sep because he is RFA, teams will be getting desperate, teams will have more pieces to move then any point of the season and nsh should want him out so that they can move on with life without suter and weber anchoring the franchise. - now his trade value is gonna be through the roof, im not being sarcastic its gonna be something we have never seen before...heres the package pronger got...twice Edmonton Oilers traded Chris Pronger to the Anaheim Ducks for Joffrey Lupul, Ladislav Smid, a 1st round selection in 2007, a conditional 1st round selection and a 2nd round selection in 2008. Anaheim Ducks traded Chris Pronger and Ryan Dingle to the Philadelphia Flyers for Joffrey Lupul, Luca Sbisa, a 1st round selection in 2009, a 1st round selection in 2010 and a conditional round selection in 2010 or 2011. dont forget that was for pronger when he was 31 and 34...can you imagine the package it would take to get weber when he is 26 and they are virtually the same player it would take 3-4 roster players, 1-2 high prospects, and 1st pick or two.....obviously give or take depending on the exact package Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6string Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 salo sentiments, they haven't even retired pavel bure's number 10 ( go ahead n argue with laughter about 96 ). weber can wear 6 or 66 or 666 i just want him here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dura_mater Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Yes. Because signing or not signing with a team all depends if the player has to change jersey numbers or not. Makes perfect sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
