  1. Agreed with most of what you said. However, Sutter is expendable because of Gaudette. Miller, according to what both JB and Green have said, will play with either Petey or Bo. He will not be centering the 3rd line.
  2. He is Canadian. He wears 6 with Tampa. Edit: hockey news said he was born in Sault Ste Marie but they are wrong as other sites and posters pointed out. I see he wears 10 lol.
  3. Nice to see some positivity. I just read the Tampa hf board. The fans there are not thinking they robbed us by any means. They feel they got a fair deal with a good NHL player and he was only moved so they can resign Point. We got a good player and I am excited for next season. Just need a d JB......come on!!
  4. There is still the possibility of a trade for a D. Miller in Vegas....they are in a cap crunch. Zaitsev in TO....a bit of a cap crunch. I am still hopeful JB can get a top 4 D with some of the parts we have (Virtanen, Tanev, Sutter,). I know they don't have tons of value but they certainly do have some. Then try to sign Stralman as a UFA. Myers/Gardiner seem like a bad idea.
  5. It is kinda weird we didn't get any D at all. I hope a trade can still be made rather than paying 50 million to gardiner....jeebus
  6. I know a lot of you don't like the idea of Zaitsev but I would be fine with him on our 2nd pairing D if we can get a good deal done with Toronto to either get a good young prospect with him...as long as we paid very little.
  7. The more I have read about JT Miller the more excited I have become about next season. If JB could somehow convince Panarin or Lee to come here we would have a very good top 6. Still need that D though.
  8. What a bizarre decision. The draft is in Vancouver yet sportsnet are so stupid they go to commercial at the Vancouver pick?? What a bunch of amateurs lol.
  9. Some Tampa fans are saying this is a fair deal because they like Miller. I didn't see them saying they robbed us in this deal. If they think its fair it must be a better deal than I thought. I like that Miller is big and a legit top 6 player.
  10. I am happy we got Miller but how the fark does Benning give up a 1st for that? How can Benning be so good at drafting and so mediocre at trades?? I just don't get it sometimes.
  11. I got sucked into the whole barrie trade crap today. I started the day not wanting the shrimp but bought into the whole 55+ point offensive d guy thing. Thought we had a half decent trade proposed and then, again like most years, nothing happened. Man these media d bags are getting old and useless pumping nothing. I hope JB can get us a couple top 4 D in trades but eff sakic the little beeaattchh. Go for subban or someone else not on colordbags
  12. Yeah ok...you lost me at taking Pod over Byram haha.
  13. He is 90 and a billionaire. In this world that means he can do whatever he wants.....right or wrong.
  14. I would wager Jim Benning knows more than chip kelly. hahahha
  15. One would think that if a trade had been done for Barrie it would have been announced.
  16. We don't know if JB will stay at 10 or trade it for Barrie and get the 16th...hmmmm.
  17. This came from hf: Buddy of mine knows a bunch of Canucks bloggers and they are all saying 10th+Virtanen for Barrie+16th. Edit: If this ended up being true this would be a great trade for the Canucks.
  18. Tim and Sid said it is Virtanen and 10th overall. God I hope they are wrong. Edit: I saw this in the hf thread. Did not hear it myself.
