The Stanchion Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Warning: 70% of you will not finish this because it is far far too long. I tried to keep it short but there was just too much to talk about. Once you start talking about Jiri Slegr, it's tough to stop! But for those of you stuck at work or school and need a bit of a read, I went over the entire Canucks trade deadline activity history, so if you want to travel down memory lane, here's your chance! Seriously, it's really long, I'm sorry. http://blogs.theprovince.com/2013/03/27/canucks-trade-deadline-history-a-loving-tribute/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred65 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 This year will be a non event, MG has boxed himself in by holding Luongo for so long. He now has very little Cap space to maneuver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I remember Eric Weinrich retiring right after that season and asking myself why Nonis was still in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Doctor Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Geoff Courtnall, Robert Dirk, Sergio Momesso, Cliff Ronning and future considerations traded from St. Louis to Vancouver for Dan Quinn and Garth Butcher.

cbdoubleu Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Sweet read. I was actually choked when they traded Dan Quinn; he was something of a Spezza of his time. Put up some great numbers but never became a real leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coho8888 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 But seriously, pretty good. Man, Nonis and Burke tried while they were here (actually drafting a few good players that now make up the core of our team) but they were horrible at the deadline. What was it in 2006, two 2nd rounders, a 3rd and a 4th (plus a conditional 7th) to get us nowhere? That resulted in Carney and Weinrich? But I guess it got us Mika Noronen, and it was almost worth it just to be able to say his name. Man, I miss deals like 1991. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
