A little rich for my blood

Was afraid we were gonna sign him to 3 years. 1 year is perfect!

Damnit, Geekie would've been good for the Canucks

Wanted him back real bad...but not for that term and price. Good look Schenn!

Good crop of young players that fit right into the age group Allvin was talking about. He better be on this like a hawk. Sign Geekie or Mcleod for 3C. Asplund as a last resort. And get Cal Foote if we can sign him cheap.

I guess I'm in the minority, I'm not weirded out by this. Chicago probably had to fork up extra cash to convince Perry to come to what's likely to be a bottom feeder team next season. One year commitmment so Chicago increases salary and they can do it since they have infinite cap space for the year.

Drance is so annoying to listen to. Rather have Farber, Kuzma and others asking the questions. Hell, even JPat would be better.

I'd blame it on the flat cap environment everyone is working under right now.

Woo, Hirose, McWard and Johansson will be competing for that third pairing spot on the big club.

DRAFT ALL THE SWEDES!!!

You could make the argument though that they are younger than Miller. Same thing with Meier.

Why do I have the feeling that we're not going to do any-thing today...

I know Allvin said earlier today he plans to stick with the 11th pick, but... To CLB: Miller Rathbone or Hoglander 11th pick To VAN: 3rd pick (Leo Carlsson) Bean or Peeke One can only dream...

Sutter, dressing room issues, old arena, etc aside...wondering if there's a growing trend where US players just flat out don't want to play in Canada? Maybe this is a reason for the Canucks to lean even harder then they already are into Swedes

Mikheyev - Pettersson - Kuzmenko Beauvillier - Carlsson - Boeser Podkolzin - 3C (Karlsson?) - Garland Joshua - Aman - Studnicka Hughes - Peeke 2LD (Soucey?) - Hronek Johansson/Hirose/McWard/Juulsen/Woo - Myers Yes please.

I would disagree. Carlsson can slot into 2C/3C right away. Cap space cleared, and we get a young RHD, which I believe is a more dire need than a 3C right now. The dream would be to snag Jiricek, but that's a pipedream of course. Settle for Bean or Peeke. The reality of OEL's buyout is another major factor here. Carlsson's ELC would help deal with that dead cap better. I'd do it in a heartbeat. It's not a secret that Allvin is foaming at the mouth for Carlsson. I don't blame him, can you imagine a 1-2 punch with Petey? Throw in Hoglander, Rathbone, a 3rd/4th round pick, I don't care, get it done. The Blue Jackets and Canucks are as good of a fit as trading partners as I've seen in a while. Take advantage of their glut of defenseman, and they need another forward to bolster their team who's desperate to win now.

I'm thinking they could use Miller to fill out their center positions. I think it'd be a solid three with Miller, Kent Johnson and Roslovic. Not sure if Carlsson would be NHL ready enough to take a 2C position immediately - same case for Kent Johnson at 1C. Throw in one of our 4th round picks this year to get it done. Columbus is in win now mode - acquiring Provorov and Severson are pretty big indicators of that, I'm sure they can let go one of their young defensemen.

To CLB: Miller 11th Overall Pick To VAN: 3rd Overall Pick (Carlsson) Bean or Peeke Throw in Hoglander or Rathbone as a sweetener if needed. I really don't believe in the notion that Miller is a "cap dump."

boring finals

Sigh...if only.

Thank god. Good player, but no thank you on that price tag.
