I love how Gillis sounds so bland on the radio. He sounds like would rather be in 1000 different places.

In all seriousness, though, I appreciate our GM doing this. This is something he could have easily declined. It's nice to know that he's willing to spend 2 hours on the radio to discuss everything Canucks and maybe some other things, even if there won't necessarily be any breaking news.

So far of importance:

1) Mason Raymond has a big year ahead to prove himself. Wouldn't say it's his last chance, but it's important for him to play the way they think he can, and that's why they did what they did in the summer.

2) Luongo and Schneider can start the year together, because they're both professionals. That being said, if a move comes that can improve the team they have to look at it.

3) CBA talks not affecting Luongo Deal

4) Not one GM has complained or said anything about the term of Luongo's deal, and there are lots of deals around the league like that (like ones that were signed last week).

5) Wanted to keep Salo, but unfortunately didn't work out.

6) Really excited about Kevin Connauton, and Frankie Corrado. Coach MacTavish on the wolves, LOVED Corrado, but unfortunately he still has a year of junior left. We'll see if he can impress in a month.

7) We like our D, we'll try Garrison out on the right, but not forced to play there. Think Bally/Tanev is a good pairing.

That was pretty candid info about Shea Weber.

-Gillis met with Weber and his agent in Kelowna for 3 hours

-Canucks wanted Weber

-Gillis thinks Nashville will match

-It is a lot to presume that Weber would have wanted to play here just because he's from the area
