Pears Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hahah someone started a rumor on Twitter that the Canucks offered Doan 40 mill, now Hockeyyinsiderr and a bunch of these other clowns are saying its not true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DezzyBeygass Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Take it for what it is worth, which probably isn't very much but according to that jokester Eklund: " Sabres Offer for Doan Huge, Canucks Offer Even Bigger. All that said, if Doan signs elsewhere it will be soon. If it goes past this week, I am told he will roll the dice and stay in Phoenix. But anything remains possible... More to come in the AM." If the rumours are true and the Sabres have offered $7.5 Million per, what the heck could the Canucks offer be? This is of course another reason it is very difficult to believe. http://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Eklund/Sabres-Offer-for-Doan-Huge-but-Canucks-Offer-Even-Bigger/1/46201 STRANGE.

UMB Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 7.5 for Doan??? HA! Canucks offer even more??? I'll take it that this is one of those days where Eklund is totally off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigs Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 My thoughts: ????in sign already!. Doan: Gotta take all things into consideration, will be another few weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avicii Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'd rather just sign Arnott and get Versteeg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugemanskost Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Enough of the freakin' drama, already. Just sign a deal somewhere, Shane. You'd think the guy was the second coming of The Great One, or something. If he gets more than $4-5M / year somewhere, that team is overspending. I hope the Canucks don't blow their remaining cap load all on Shane Doan! What has he won? Nothing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 No deal until the big deal is dealt with. The labour deal trumps every other deal out there. Before Doan can sign a deal, before a deal for LUU gets done. First the season has to be ready to go. Deal or no deal?! DEAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucksbiggestfan Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hahaha, that's completely laughable, if the Canucks offer Shane Doan over 6 million then he is not worth it and the max years I would offer would be 2 years. We have to remember he will be a 35+ contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TowelPower12 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 It;s Eklund so it's most likely BS, and I sure hope it is cause if we're offering Doan something like 8 million a year then Gillis is on crack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pears Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I would think if we were to sign Doan, the contract would be front loaded. So something like Year 1: $7.5 million Year 2: $6 million Year 3: $5.3 million Year 4: $4.2 million Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucksbiggestfan Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 This has gone long enough, the guy is close to calling it a year and he doesn't have a lot of years left in him. He has to choose whether he wants to stay loyal to the franchise he has spent his entire career with or if he wants play on a contender and have a real shot at winning the cup. His decision and Gary Bettman's stupidity are really holding a lot of things back. If none of this was going Luongo would already by traded and we would have a close to finalized roster. All I need is for Shane Doan to make a decision already and for Gary Bettman and the owners to their heads out of their a**es and finalize negotiations on a fair deal!!!

Phil_314 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Mats Sundin? More like Mats Shanedoan if you ask me , boy market demand could REALLY push prices up, and at this cost It;s Eklund so it's most likely BS, and I sure hope it is cause if we're offering Doan something like 8 million a year then Gillis is on crack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
etsen3 Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Don't blame Doan for taking a while. There's a lot of uncertainty with the CBA/Phoenix ownership situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSacamano Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Gillis won GM of the year last summer, he's not going to have that quick a fall to be idiot of the year. So many things wrong with that rumor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
