L'Orange Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 UFA - Mike Commodore - $1.7 M 6'4" 228. Is willing to throw down when necessary. Might he be a good acquisition depth defenseman? A better, tougher version of Andrew Alberts. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanucksFanMike Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Could be good for depth but there are other options out there. I think we should go for one of Colin White or Steve Eminger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aliboy Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I used to be a big fan, but it's time for Mike to retire. Also, he is not a good fighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danthecanucksfan Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 good for the 3rd D pairing/ depth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I would rather try to throw a league minimum deal at Jeff Finger and see if he could stick as a #6-7 guy. Kurtis Foster may not be horrible next to Tanev on the 3rd pair. Big body with some offensive upside (if Ballard is moved). Brett Clark and Scott Hannan would also be solid bottom pairing depth options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis15 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I thought that was a steal of a deal at $1M for Detroit last year, but he hardly did anything and didn't play very much before they dumped him to Tampa for a conditional 7th. If even Detroit doesn't want you back (and they've lost Lidstrom to retirement and Stuart wanted to go back to Cali) then we could probably do better.

Dion Phaneuf Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Past his prime, no thanks. * IMO he should retire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucklehead44 Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 I'd take him at 750K. He was a plus player last year. He has size, hits, and is willing to drop the gloves. He fights a lot of heavyweights, usually doesn't win but can hold his own. Can beat most middle weight guys. He was a pretty good player at one point, I think he still has more talent than a pure goon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
