drdeath Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I expect the Canucks may also be looking to get a defenseman in exchange for Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tortorella's Rant Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 garrison isnt the answer anyways.... i wouldnt want him here for anymore than 4, and with TB signing salo for 3.75 that just makes garrison getting 6.5+ actually possible, and if MG pays a guy like Garrison that much, i will start a rally to get MG's ass canned/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSniper88 Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Draft: Burke: So uh, about Luongo GMMG: Luke Schenn. Burke: Not happening. Free Agency Opening Burke: Let's try this again about Luongo GMMG: Luke Schenn. Burke: Stop that. Weeks before training camp when the Leafs have no real goalie Burke: Luke Schenn? GMMG: Schenn and a pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yosupermexican Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Sami Salo had the hardest slapshot on our team. He had great sportsmanship and he will never be forgotten in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WHL rocks Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 `$3.75 mill per year on 2 year deal. Money talks and you know what walks. LOL at the fan boys living in a fantasy world who think Garrison will sign here for millions less. Salo has already made millions in his life and has been a Canuck for a long time, even he left because he got a better deal elsewhere. Garrison hasn't even made much money so far. He would be the last guy to take millions less at this point of his career. I'm happy for Salo, he's got a family to look after and this will be his last contract. Good for Salo to get a nice contract. Salo was one of my favourite players on the Canucks since he was traded here from OTT for Peter Schaeffer.

Baggins Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 How about you include the entire context, and if you had any semblance of intelligence, you'd know that AV is a "Corsi Coach". He puts players in specific situations in order to maximize the return of their play. This does not inherently mean that the coach will play each player in a situation that caters to their specific talents or abilities. Keith Ballard is an offensively capable defenseman, he rushes the puck as well as starting the break out. His roles the past two seasons when he wasn't plagued by injury or ineffectiveness of not being able to adjust to a new team were bottom pairing, meant to advance the puck and get it into the offensive zone and create a stoppage; whereby the offensive lines (sedins, kesler lines) would then come out for the offensive draw. Ballard was played in these roles because we had better options for the T4 or in other words the more offensive pairings who also happened to play PP and PK. I would be willing to bet that with injury fully behind him, a full off season to train and an increased role on the team will result in at least 25-35 points this season, perhaps more.

DeNiro Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 No disrespect to Ohlund, but how did that work out for Tampa? Not sure if this is a great move for Tampa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
