hockeyfan90 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I'm not getting any hopes up at all. Remember what happened with Schultz? He was for sure coming to the Canucks and then what happens...signs with the Oilers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bleednucksblue Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Its Shane Friggin Doan! I laugh at those who compare his value to Justin Schultz as a free agent. This is Captain Canada we are talking about here. The things that Doan brings to the table and the team can't even be put into words. The impact of watching a guy like this play on your team on players like Booth? Kassian? the young bucks like Gaunce and Jensen??? 3years @ 6 Million Per. Twins and Kesler will be fine with that signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marleau_12 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 This is pretty much old news, HockeyInsiderr had this awhile ago. If we do sign Doan, I'd expect it to be 2 years at 4.5m-5m per year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afesposit Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 From what I'm hearing on the radio here in Phx, Doan wants 4-5 years @ 6m per..... But who knows... That's just what the guy on the radio was talking. He was also saying SJ is huge on him and would like to pair him w/ Marleau and Thornton... But who knows...

Trebreh Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Doan at 2 yrs 8m is a fair offer, he brings leadership, grit, size, and another weapon on the PP (he's got a bomb on the point). With Raymond re-signing, I dont see a spot for him in our top 9, unless there is a trade. Sedin - Sedin - Burrows Raymond - Kesler - Booth Higgins - - Hansen Unless MG is going to pull another "Marco Sturm" sign and trade Raymond, I cant find a fit for Doan. I would LOVE to have him though. I like the way he plays, very old fashioned 'you hit our star players I get you back' type player. I remember when Doughty or Richards hit Ekman-Larsson, the very next shift he lays out a Kings player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afesposit Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 lol I cheer for them second as well. With Pronger in the line-up their defence > And their offence is 100x better. IMO Bryz just had a bad year, he'll be better. We still have the edge with Schneider but not enough to discount their obvious advantage when it comes to the 18 skaters. EDIT: Bryz wasn't terrible in round 2 vs. NJD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyking Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 yea but I am sure that we could find a suitable #5 or #6 D-man that get under 15 minutes per game to play for under a Million per year. ie. Tanev, Suave, Connaughton, Joslin ect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolverinė Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Doaner saw Bryz self destruct first hand in the playoffs for two years... You think he wants to see that again??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ButterBean Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Shane Doan's agent's words are far more intriguing than some random Twitter person's (the guy who said Parise will sign with Pittsburgh and all the TSN guys will be sucking him off).

Trebreh Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 You're saying you'd rather have Raymond on the second line than Shane Doan. I can't believe my eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marleau_12 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 That was just one of his very few mistakes, and he still said that Minny had heavy interest from the start and Parise had Minny among the top of his list. Funny how nobody even considers the numerous times he had things right days/weeks before TSN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 You're saying there's no room for Doan. Get Raymond out of the top six for gods sake and put Doan in. It's simple. Raymond can sit in the press box for all I care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marleau_12 Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 Im not MG Just saying, now that they re-signed Raymond, that takes the only potential spot for Doan.. unless they want to convert Raymond as a 3rd line Centre LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vancanfan Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 I hope we are DOAN the right thing by signing him would be great, cmon to Vancity Shane and enjoy the ride! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
