Kassian Matthias Dorsett

Kenins Horvat Hansen

Tanev Edler

Hamhuis Bieksa

Sbisa Weber

Miller

Lack

Trade 1:

To San Jose:

Miller

Bonino

To Van:

Thornton

2nd Round Pick

Reason: Veteran for veteran swap, we get rid of cap space, they get rid of a guy who doesn't want to be there, they get a goalie we get a playmaking center for Vrbata and a guy who can anchor the second unit powerplay

To St.Louis:

2nd Round Pick

To Van:

Paajarvi

Reason: They get a 2nd Round Pick, we get a skilled reclamation project similar to Baertschi

Signings:

Joel Ward: 2 Years

Cody Franson: 4 years

Help close out final years with core

Lineup:

Sedin Sedin Burrows

Ward Thornton Vrbata

Baerstchi Horvat Kassian

Dorsett Cassels Hansen

Kenins Virtanen Paajaarvi

Higgins

Tanev Edler

Bieksa Franson

Hamhuis Sbisa

This hurts...

SJ laughs and says no.

STL laughs and says yes. And then laughs. And laughs. And laughs.

If we signed Ward, it would be for one year (and quite frankly, I'd rather have Boedker if he chooses not to re-sign)

If we signed Franson, we wouldn't. It's not a good deal for us unless we move at least three defensemen.

Good try, though. You're getting closer than the last one.

1. Might I suggest adding up the Canucks' cap hit for a 23 man roster after your proposals?

The Canucks will be over any reasonable cap projection.

2. I realize his salary has dropped by about half since he passed through waivers a few months ago and he performed, at age 24, well for the Chicago Wolves in the AHL late this season, but is there much reason to think Paajarvi won't be available on waivers again in a few months?

Has he really gone from passing through waivers to being worth a 2nd rounder? If Benning was high on him, perhaps he'd have claimed him (Canucks could afford his salary this past season) and not bothered claiming someone (McMIllan) whose ceiling is as a depth forward.
