  1. I only say that because it's such a bad deal for Gillis and the org. Basically telling 28 other GMs this is the trash I am being offered, start bidding gentlemen. Because really that is a terrible deal. Like us offering Gaunce Higgins and a couple of picks for say E.Kane
  2. I make this deal known to 28 other GMs and say top it with Shero on the phone for the conference call
  3. This is where i'd do a conference call with Shero and Holmgren, tell Shero to keep quiet and Holmgren give you his best pitch. Ask him to hold and then ask Shero if he could meet or beat it. And then ask Holmgren how he feels about having to try shutting down Malkin, Crosby, Kesler, Neal, Jokinnen etc....yikes
  4. IN all honesty if LuLu can provide a basis of proof for anything that they've claimed I will be happy to apologize and retract anything I have said that has been offensive. but honestly, until then it is lower than eklund to post things of this nature
  5. What have you posted in the past? Yes by speculating and commenting and spreading rumours about the club/players you're in violation of forum rules And seriously, I have a source to. it says at least 1 person on the canucks roster will be traded by Weds. $20 and a double double says my source is more credible than yours
  6. THAN POST YOUR SOURCE OR STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You cannot or will not and as such YOU'RE CONTRIBUTING TO THE PROBLEM I don't HAVE to tell you not to post things like that The forum rules tell you not to. Edit** For the record, I am not calling you a liar. You're making yourself out to be a gossip though, a gossip with no credible source who posts things they cannot substantiate which in itself kinda makes you out to be a liar.
  7. I just hope Gillis is doing everything he can to get Luongo to where he wants to be and deserves to be
  8. OK, you're not new here. Please, post a source or don't post this kind of stuff at all. The issue with comments like these is that they're endless and never verified but you know a guy who knows a guy who slept with a girl who got hit on by the executive director of a country club where a players stick boy worked as a teenager.
  9. Nothing but picks and prospects please. Go Go Youth Movement!!! Show them Oilers how a rebuild is done
  10. At this point if Florida wanted to simply give vancouver a 1st and 2nd this year, consider it a coup for Luongo
  11. Isles shelled 6-1 again. Luongo to them Isles!!!!

  12. As am I. edler in one deal Kesler in another Luongo as a stand alone Reap the picks/prospects Suck for 2 years and hope we get a bona fide shot at MacDavid and Chychrun and not Edmonton out with RNH and Yakupov...talk about bad luck for sucking
  13. You've been an argumentative rude and insufferable annoyance ALL day. how have you not been banned for all your poor language, cursing and attacking people?
  14. With Buffalo's 16 picks in the first 3 rounds since 2011 and 11 total picks in the first two rounds this year and in 2015....hard to laugh at them. even they'll be able to hit at least 1 homerun out of all of that insanity
  15. That is a real shame. Edler, Kesler and Luongo all going to different teams for different deals sheds a ton of cap and nets this team a fortune in picks and prospects. enough to set us up for contention for a decade if drafting and development are done properly
  16. Can someon just pin a trade thread including links to htstove SNET TSN etc regarding Luongo, Kesler and Edler?? Hard to follow and getting rather interesting. Really think a lot happens after the game tomorrow

  17. Hahaha deb so true Exactly why I posted an NHL daily trade rumour thread. 13+ pages and exactly NO trades that they've talked about have happened
  18. Does anyone wonder if Gillis simply biding his time? Waiting until after the "outdoor" game closer to the deadline to facilitate a trade?

      Hoping Gillis does nothing and his replacement is the one who starts the rebuild.

      Watch him trade Kesler for one good player and a pick and then he'll be fired for doing that

  19. You kinda....totally missed that. Your attention to detail is....LACKing
  20. The twins at their contracts and for obvious reasons cannot and will not be traded. But listening to dragon etc say Kesler needs to stay is basically tantamount to firing pucks at a cement wall and hoping for a win for all the good it does this team.
  21. Kesler is far from the guy to build around. Think of him as Ryan Smyth at this point Once Smyth hit 33 years old he was basically a contract anchor. kesler will either price himself out of vancouver or possibly walk after everything is said and done in 2 seasons. Teams and championships are built by making deals when value is high. Can you honestly say Kesler in 4 or 5 years is the guy you expect to be leading the Canucks to a cup with? I really cannot. Injuries, personal issues, contracts etc will all take their toll and either have us lose him for nothing, or have us holding on to him for north of $6 million a year while he only plays 30+ games a season in a reduced role as injuries have hampered him so completely
  22. Stop...please people STOP. This is NOT a proposal thread.... Look If Kesler is leaving a Center NEEDS to be coming back. Either as a player or a prospect. Couturier is the obvious choice because he's young, larger than B Schenn an excellent shutdown guy and has some serious offensive upswing as he matures B Schenn translates into that fast great passing potential 70-90 point center we need after the twins retire. Laughton is indeed intriguing But come on that is just the Phily trades. Detroit, people who keep saying detroit won't trade their youth need to stop for a second. Their endless cup runs and 4 wins in the last 16 years are not because of youth but because of the vets they brought in either via trade or UFA Mantha, Jurco or Sproul are the obvious choices. Nyquist is a non starter because he's one of the best producers playing in Detroit right now and Holland will not subtract that just to add a two way player Pittsburgh has endless depth at the D position but come on, if it is not Maata. Why do people really think that we would accept a "possible top 4" in Pouliot (sp) or Dumoulin. If Bennett and Maata are not part of that equation again it is a non starter. You've got to understand. The total haul for Buffalo was a UFA goalie, power forward with a questionable work ethic, a 1st round pick and a potential second 1st round pick picks a 3rd round pick and a solid prospect. This is for 2 UFA's in positions that they've got in spades.... Kesler alone would/should net a comparable package. Take the Iginla pick up last season and double that. don't forget this is a shallow draft year so picks don't mean as much for playoff teams. And nobody can say where any team will place next year so picks next year as well are fairly meaningless for competing teams. After yesterdays St Louis/Buffalo trade. Earlier this seasons Vanek/Moulson trade. And the Off Seasons Ottawa Anaheim trade. people really need to step back and evaluate exactly what a Kesler under contract on top of his game post Olympics is worth. The return for him alone should beggar the purchasing team and rightly so. So please, no more proposals of the Simmonds Schenn alone quality. Be a shade more realistic
