wallstreetamigo Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 http://capgeek.com/canucks Fire Unsucessful GM for last 2 years . Coach AV is fine . But get rid of Cory Schneider 4 M + David Booth 4.25M + keith Ballard 4.25 M + zach Kassian .875M + Andrew Ebbet .600 M + Andrew Alberts 1.225 M = 15.15 M . So canucks salary cap gonna cut down at 55 M for today's market . Next year Alex Elder gain more 1.8 M in his new contract + Chris Higgins also gain .600 M = 2.4 M 55 M + 2.4 M = 57.4 M for rest of Canucks roster . Canucks still have 6.7 M in cap space . We could be get star wing ( offensive player ) . Offensive : Higgins Kesler burrows Daniel Henrik Hansen ( Jensen ) May Ray Roy Schroeder ( Gaunce ) Lapierre kellan Lain pinnizzoto ------------------------------------------------------- Blue line : Beiksa Hamuis Elder Garrison Tanev cam barker ( Frank Corrado , Patrick Mullen , Yaun Sauve ) Luongo Joe cantata or Eddie This could be a great team ever !!!

AV's Coin Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Gillis says:"Help and Support for Sedins" - Sedins getting older and scoring will naturally decline. Naslund's last year or so comes to mind where the club did not support him with appropriate linemates. Help for the Sedins comes in the form of acquiring two skilled veterans to enhance scoring on the first and second line. Veterans should be proven playoff performers/international tourney performers and team leaders who naturally will ease some of the burden of scoring and leadership placed on the Sedins from on and off the ice."Younger" - Have to develop or acquire youth due to attrition and cap reasons. Youth will be dispersed through line-up and mixed with existing and added veterans who will become mentors. In turn our young players inject energy and skill into line-up which veterans can feed off of. If some of the younger players are falling short they can be moved down the line-up and replaced with our utility players - Burrows, Higgins, Hansen, Kassian, Weise...More Dynamic - Offense and power play has become stale. Do we ever get a good scoring chance let alone score from an odd man rush? Second Power play lacking some skill/playmakers. The acquisition of Roy helped some in both these areas. A coaching change or systems change could be in order to be more dynamic as well as work and develop our young players. Possibly experiment with breaking up Sedins 5 on 5? They would enhance/develop a shoot first instinct that could benefit them in the play-offs while still acting as playmakers for the top two lines. The Sedins are excellent at improving/adapting their game. See increased physicality and defense this year. Daniel Sedin ($6.100m) / Henrik Sedin ($6.100m) / 1R Shane Doan ($5.300m) - Mmmmm puck possession. Nicklas Jensen ($0.863m) / Ryan Kesler ($5.000m) / 2R/C Danny Briere ($6.500m) - increased skill, vision and playmaking Chris Higgins ($2.500m) / Brendan Gaunce ($1.057m) / Alexandre Burrows ($4.500m) - shut down Zack Kassian ($0.870m) / Maxim Lapierre ($1.150m) / Jannik Hansen ($1.350m) - hit squad Dale Weise ($0.677m) / - OR Tostito for toughness. Dan Hamhuis ($4.500m) / Jason Garrison ($4.600m) - do these guys work well together and can they eat up minutes? Alexander Edler ($5.000m) / Chris Tanev ($1.200m) - Can Tanev cover for Edler and/or Bieksa. I prefer Edler but...Bieksa's NTC Andrew Alberts ($1.225m) / Frank Corrado ($0.599m) - Can these guys keep playing like they did at the end of this season. Jim Vandermeer ($0.600m) / - any plug Cory Schneider ($4.000m) Eddie Lack ($0.750m) ------ SALARY CAP: $64,300,000; CAP PAYROLL: $64,440,944; BONUSES: $162,500 CAP SPACE (22-man roster): $21,556 Notes: 1R - Doan obviously not likely but could be any strong winger who can cycle, shoot and work in front of the net. Iginla, Horton, Kassian... 2R/C - Briere for Luongo solves needs on both teams assuming PHI buys out Bryz. PHI gets a goalie and cap relief. We overpay for Briere but end the goalie controversy and get a skilled second line winger/center with leadership and playoff performances - over 1ppg in playoffs career. Brieres' numbers are declining so maybe sign Ribeiro, Roy or similar player via trade. One or two East-West players instead of pure North-South players. Jensen - sniper for second line. Kesler can drive to net with or without puck to create space and pick up rebounds. Can be replaced by Burrows or Kassian if not ready. Gaunce - Two way player. Can be replaced by Briere if required and Gaunce plays wing/centre on 4th with Lappy. If that is one two many young players to rely on then put Kassian with the Sedins, Keep Booth on the second line with Kesler and newly acquired skilled winger/center. Gaunce/Schroeder can play 3C. I'm new at this but was fun. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyLow_ Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Sedin - Sedin - Burrows - Kesler - Jensen Higgins - - Hansen Gaunce - Lappi - Kassian Hamhuis - Bieksa Garrison - Tanev - Corrado Alberts Schneider Lack I'd like to see Lu traded for a 1st round pick in this draft and a good young left winger with size to grow on that 4th line with Kass. Edler should be traded for a winger to play with the Sedins or to move up in the draft.. Maybe there's enough value in Booth/Ballard to get an offensive type D, I really like Alberts as the 7th.

Dogbyte Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Sedin Sedin Burrows [boring and lame] Booth Kesler Kassian Higgins [Plug] Hansen Sestito Lapierre Weise Ebbett Hamhuis Garrison Edler Bieksa Alberts Corrado Tanev Barker Schneider [plug] / Lack This team sucks. Our defence is horrible and overpaid, our forwards can't score, we can't split up our top line but we have the best third line depth of non-goal scoreres in the league because we have 5 wingers that can play on that line. Great. I would rather blow up the team than keep that core together. Thankfully I can divert my energies into something besides hockey next year.

With Lucic, Clutterbuck and Clowe more grit, more strength and all of them can score. We need a new timeline - without our Super-Twins! I'm sorry to say, but I think with Henrik and Daniel we would only win a flowerpot in the PO's. At 4th-line our young players get their chance to play "with big guys". But I would like to sign 2 players of the FA market, which play tough and go hard. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My Custom Lineup FORWARDS Milan Lucic ($6.000m) / Ryan Kesler ($5.000m) / Zack Kassian ($0.870m) Chris Higgins ($2.500m) / Stephen Weiss ($3.800m) / Cal Clutterbuck ($2.500m) Ryane Clowe ($3.850m) / Jordan Schroeder ($2.000m) / Jannik Hansen ($1.350m) Bill Sweatt ($1.500m) / Ryan Johansen ($1.945m) / Nicklas Jensen ($863.333) DEFENSEMEN Dan Hamhuis ($4.500m) / Jason Garrison ($4.600m) Frank Corrado ($0.599m) / Chris Tanev ($2.500m) James Wisniewski ($5.500m) / Dmitry Kulikov ($2.500m) GOALTENDERS Cory Schneider ($4.000m) Eddie Lack ($0.750m) OTHER Buried: Alexandre Burrows ($3.575m) ------ SALARY CAP: $64,300,000; CAP PAYROLL: $60,702,778; BONUSES: $1,075,000 CAP SPACE (20-man roster): $4,672,222 (No Clowe but Burrows in: CAP SPACE = $7,597,222) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5minutesinthebox Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I think putting the Sedins on the second line would take a lot of pressure off of them to produce points ???? - Kesler - ???? Sedin - Sedin - Kassian Higgins - ???? - Burrows ???? - Lapierre - Hansen Hamhuis - Bieksa Edler - Garrison ???? - Tanev Schneider/Luongo Lack Build around Kesler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jejejester Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 It doesnt matter what line you put them on. If they are producing more than any other line, guess who the opposing coach will focus their top defensive guys against? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gdcanucks02 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Sedin Sedin Kassian Burrows Kesler Jensen Higgins Gaunce Hansen Weise Lappiere Lain Edler Garrison Hamhuis Bieksa Tanev Corrado Schneider Lack Give our young talent a chance to show they can play in this league. They arent going to get any experience playing bottom line minutes and the cap is going down. Maybe get a legitimate top 6 forward and depth dman through trades involving booth and luongo, buyout ballard, and let mason walk. There is no need to gut the team or trade/sign free agents to fill holes. Kass and Jensen are the big powerforwards we are looking for, just have to let them grow and Gaunce is the centre depth we need. Gillis wants to get bigger and younger then this is what he needs to do. Trust the young ones and bring in a coach that can get them there.

Fubtastik Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I would make a couple of changes: Kassian to top line. Reason: Burrows and Kesler together are like a shutdown line so your 3rd line is a 2B offensive line and don't have to play main defensive role. Trade Schneider to Pittsburgh for James Neal. Reason: Luongo is still a great goalie but we get nothing for him in terms of value. Draft a goalie this year and groom him for 2-3 years ala Schneider. Neal is a stud and Pittsburgh needs a goalie. Trade Edler to Philadelphia for Simmonds and L.Schenn Reason: Huge value for Canucks and Edler has become expendable. I think his back is bothering him big time and its not reported. He gets points as he is on power play but his physicality is gone due to back. Schenn: Not sure if he is right handed but he's a western kid and we have too much money on the blue line. Love the way Simmonds plays. Bring in some of the kids. Need to have these players develop on the fly in the nhl. Jensen is ready but be patient. Kid puts puck into the net at every level so far. Buy out Ballard and Booth So lines: Sedin Sedin Kassian Burrows Kesler Neal Hansen Schroeder Simmonds Higgins Lapierre Jensen Hamhuis Bieksa Garrison Tanev Schenn Corrado Alberts Luongo Lack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jejejester Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 If things went right how would you guys feel about this line up Edler for ryan FA: gordon torres D.Sedin H.Sedin Z.Kassian B.Ryan R.Kesler A.Burrows C.Higgins B.Gordon N.Jensen R.Torres M.lapierre J.Hansen (B.Gaunce or K.lain - who ever is more nhl ready) D.Hamhuis K.Bieksa J.Garrison F.Corrado K.Ballard C.Tanev A.Alberts C.Schneider E.Lack Sedin line needs to focus on offense its what they are offensive players. Kesler line gets a goal scorer but is dependable in its own zone (200ft line) Gordon line gives a youngster two players who are good in both ends and allows Jensen to make mistakes and put focus into scoring. Lapierre line is the best 4th line we ever had with players who can be used on pk and pp (lots of bang for your buck) also can be depended on in their own end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
