firestorm238 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Random question - can NHL teams include money in a trade (a la MLB)? For instance could the Canucks offer Nashville a package of players and $14 million next year for Weber? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I think the Nash deal sets the new price for highly paid star players. Even after Nashville pays the 27 mil, the return wouldn't be as much as you guys think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tystick Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 You cared enough to leave a message..... And if Edler doesn't up his game? What then? Just sayin..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L'Orange Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I wasn't critiquing you or anything. I'm just saying his value will obviously be through the roof when he's available for trade, so why tear apart the team when we have a similar defenseman in Edler, whom can still improve? Sorry if I came across that way, I'm just debating CDC's obsession with Weber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ice orca Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Why are people comparing Edler to Weber? Weber is arguably the best D man in the league...... Edler was terrible in the playoffs this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pouria Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 If we trade Weber they will ask for Edler. Do you want to give up Edler, our cornerstone on d who will probably be 2-2.5 mil cheaper or Weber.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxLapierreAwesomeFace Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 What kind of question is that? Weber...he has been better than Edler all throughout his career and will always be better than Edler. Question is, do you want to pay cheaper for an inferior defenseman or pay up for a superior one. I mean, Honda Civic is cheaper than a BMW, so why buy a beammer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thad Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Pretty much. Edler has one year to prove himself as a consistent force on the Canucks defensive corps. My main gripe with Edler has been the lack of consistency. Some games he crushes anyone not in a Canucks jersey remotely close to blueine, some games he literally watches as we get scored on. Weber ain't perfect either. Kesler proved that during the series against Nashville. However Weber is much more consistent, and moreso he adds something that I don't know if Edler can. Deterrence. When Weber is on the ice, there are very little liberties taken against his teammates. The same cannot be said for Edler. Can it? The one piece of the puzzle the Canucks lack is an alpha defenseman. Sure Bieksa will stand up for his team, but his size prevents him from taking on the Lucics and Otts of the league. Both Edler and Weber are amongst the best offensively gifted d-men in the league. Weber, however, is a more complete defensman. Also, Edler hasn't signed with the Canucks and may be looking at Weber's contract for inspiration.
