If the deal is sutter pouliot 1st 3rd it's not so bad if you can get a premium young centre and 1st for edler May not be the moon but it works out not bad. If gillis was asking philly for a crap ton for edler and they weren't biting. Would just Schenn 1st get them to pull the trigger? Sedin sedin burrows Higgins Schenn Hansen Booth Sutter Kassian Sestito rich Schroeder Roll with our defense now minus edler and see if you get a spark from the shake up.. If you don't, go into draft day with 3 first rounders and a pool of youth that already includes Schenn Kassian Schroeder Horvat shinkaruk Jensen gaunce sutter pouliot corrado Tanev Stanton cassels If gillis could pull that off id be pretty happy. Rebuild is done

It doesn't even make sense dude.. the difference in jerseys sales of the people that will only buy a jersey if it's Kesler vs the people who would pick up a Different player instead because they intend on buying a jersey anyways can not be so astronomical that they would be willing to ignore a chance to contend again sooner. No way do those jersey sales outweigh the playoff ticket sales that they will gain by retooling on the fly and not turning into the flames. Jersey sales have no bearing on the managing of a hockey team and even if it did the centrepiece of the deal is going to sell even more in the long run than Kesler would. A million people have Kes already and aren't gonna buy 3 more. They may however buy a crapload of beau Bennett or Derek pouliot jerseys when they start lighting it up. Even if you do have some sort of source I highly doubt he's close enough for either gillis or aquillini to confide this info in. Aaaand even if by chance he is that close, use some common sense yourself and think about it.. It doesn't make any damn sense that guys smart enough to become billionaires would pull a stunt like this lol

That's just gearing up to make deadline moves in general but it shows they're seriously active

I don't want to make a thread but you guys gotta see this sports announcers call on the replay of this goal lol same goal grapes just showed on hnic http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/83914238/ Sorry for being off topic but it's pretty hilarious

Not to mention the biggest prospect pool ever to wheel and deal from.

Gillis promised bold moves haha

Spector retweeted this guy that said this @hfialkov: Panthers source says they "won't move" Boyes and "may have some good pieces coming our way." #FlaPanthers Could it be

What up now, king of es? Haha

A young team wanting to make noise immediately. Islanders have the pieces if Lu likes the destination. I know the dipietro thing may turn most away but Lou is not RD. He's a proven starter. Garth snow being a goalie himself may look at this different than most. Lu gets them in the playoffs for a lot longer than broduer and is better than halak.

Quoted by botch on twitter

Perhaps gillis found the "help for Kesler", via Lack +? Dominos fell after miller was traded? Hmm interesting..

Just for the sake of entertainment during this terrible moment in canucks history lol... if a surprise offer came in for Lu and gillis is working out fine details before asking if he wants to go, who's it from and what we getting?

Well there goes philly

I know dude, if he's not being traded I'm completely blown away.

He's 19 and already their best defenseman. Just one of those guys that hit the ground running, instant stud.

What Kesler comment? The tweet?

Botch is tweeting Lu quotes and he doesn't sound too pumped.. For the love of god, not again.

Farhan just say lack starts heritage classic?

Yeah it would be sick if all stars could align for something like that.. Just making a point we don't have to completely fleece them if we get quality hockey deals done. Even maata sutter 2 for Kesler Schroeder. Kids of no use to us anyways when you bring in Schenn and have Horvat coming in to challenge sutter. You don't have to get the moon to make doing it worthwhile. It's a fact we need a shake up and if we could get at least this, why not roll the dice. We really got nothin to lose at this point, no Derek Roy is going to pull us out of this one. We still have great players and fresh grade A young faces may light a fire.. Even if it doesn't right away we're not that far off as these kids get a season or 2 under them and Jensen shinkaruk start pushing too.

He'll if you could even just get Maata sutter 2nd and had a second deal already set up with edler for a replacement like Schenn 1st. your still makin off not bad looking at the quality coming back. Give or take pieces but your looking at Sedin sedin Kassian Higgins Schenn Hansen Booth Sutter Burrows Sestito Richardson Schroeder Hamhuis Bieksa Maata Tanev Stanton Garrison Another first lined up at the draft and 3 kids on the way to Utica next year. Youth on every line and 3 kids on the blue line. Do something like this and were set up to make more moves as Horvat corrado and company push for jobs.

Ray Shero - "ahhh screw it, let's get Kesler.. give mike the boss man gillis whatever he wants.. Hell, throw in a couple firsts if mike can do it by noon"

I creeped through the Kesler thread on hf's trade board and a penguins fan said they don't think too highly of rob Rossi over in Pittsburgh. Another tidbit.. Can't remember if it was him or another poster but someone also said despres' treatment is totally unwarranted. Claims he played very well in the games he had there and there must be some kind of personal issues with the coach. Also said something like never seen a young player treated so badly in pits, even "Naslund didn't get jerked around this bad". Also they all pretty much say maata is 100% off the table as he's pretty much their best defenseman now.

That would be sweet. I'd be pumped on a Bennett pouliot sutter pick trade. Shinkaruk Horvat Kassian Jensen Schroeder Bennett Gaunce Sutter Hansen Fox Cassels Lain Grenier labate Edler Tanev Pouliot Corrado Hutton Subban Lack Eriksson Cannata Enough youthful assets to make another big splash

Can Bennett even be traded? He's injured right now isn't he?

If we wake up on Wednesday and gillis got the moon for Kesler will you buy MC EmGee's latest rap album "whatchu know bout process"?
