TheRussianRocket. Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Honestly the article is ???? embarrassing. Nowhere is there any indication that Lack is being 'shopped'. Lack's name was on a list of goalies that might be available. Precisely, and on that list are also Miller and Markstrom who also might be available. ..Quickly!

drummer4now Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Hopefully it doesn't turn into the curse of the second round pick... like Ben Bishop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsMillerTime Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Lol. If we trade Eddie and Miller gets injured Markstrom goes in net we will suck. Then Utica will suck to. So ya makes no sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Thread] Miller being shopped [Thread] Markstrom being shopped ...aka, nothing new, just everyday hockey business lol Hey guys, I compiled a list of players the Canucks will be shopping this summer. It took a lot of work and undercover reporting, but here it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 It's not enough, and Lack shouldn't be the one traded. At best it should be Buff's 21st, no lower. Lack is a great team guy, one of the guys you want in the room. He was largely responsible for our playoff push down the stretch, while Miller was out. Miller should be the one going, but one again we have an albatross of a contract with an NTC to deal with, so he ends up staying. Honestly, we have to start making positions based on merit as opposed to contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magikal Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 a 2nd round pick is not near enough for Lack. We need to stop selling our netminders for peanuts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
87Crosby Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Love his character, would be sad to see him go. But he is the easiest goalie to move and a high second in this draft is like a late first in last years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[Thread] Miller being shopped [Thread] Markstrom being shopped ...aka, nothing new, just everyday hockey business lol The news is that Benning wants Markstrom on the team, so yes it is something new. Based on the way Markstrom has played in the playoffs, it makes sense. If Benning is seeking a 2nd round pick, it would almost certainly be Lack. Miller will be too hard to move.

Time Lord Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Fair value, but I would keep Lack over Miller 10 times out of 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuktravella Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Always found Lack overrated, probably cause of his personality. He's not yet proven to be a starter, sorry. A second round pick is a good return. I'd try to get a second round pick and a fifth rounder. you have no hockey knowledge lacks only reason we made playoffs by stealing multiple games we had no place winning while miller had a bum knee plus he outperformed miller while making 5 times less salary with a smile on his face not sure how thats overrated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 some people will believe anything....benning will do something... It's not that hard to put two and two together that Lack is likely on his way out. Miller is too hard to move, and Markstrom is playing too well to give up on, plus his value is still low until he makes the NHL full time. Better to hold onto him.

canuktravella Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 miller should be moved to sharks or ducks retain 2.5 mill of his cap and get their early first rounder. or if they trade lack to oilers for early second lack will win cup with mcdavid moving lack is a bad choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a starter. He's just a really, really good backup goalie. I would say possible destinations include SJ, CBJ, EDM, TOR, NJD, BUF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spotted Zebra Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 I won't mind seeing Lack gone for a second. He's an average starter with a good personality. That's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is seeking ≠ shopping. JB will seek a certain value for every player. Likewise he has one for Miller and Marsktrom. If someone takes a flyer then he'll do it.

WHL rocks Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 The link in OP is to a Province article that talks about Garioch's article. You have to go to Ottawa Sun and read the article OP is sourcing. OP should have linked to the Garioch article in Ottawa Sun instead of the Vancouver Province. The Garioch article talks about the Sens goalie situation and how they have a spare goalie available for trade, then lists lists the following. Heres the link http://www.ottawasun.com/2015/05/30/anderson-and-lehner-a-keeper-and-a-goner WHO ELSE IS OUT THERE? Cam Talbot Rangers He did an admirable job when Henrik Lundqvist was injured and would be an attractive option. Cam Ward Hurricanes He has one year left at $6.3 million and wasn't very good last year. You have to think he bounces back. Antti Niemi San Jose A UFA, he'll be a guy teams will look at because they can get him for the cost of term. Brian Elliott St. Louis The Blues have likely decided it's time to move on from him. He'll be able to help somebody. Eddie Lack Canucks The Canucks are trying to make room for Jacob Markstrom and GM Jim Benning is seeking a second-round pick in return.
