Sbisa was at Sven's wedding... seems like he has a great friendship with B Sutta and future captain Bo. I really think it's important to build a locker room that are friends and will fight for one another. Get Luca a contract and get him back on our squad. We can trade another D-man.

@Tre Mac Maybe he was just there delivering pizzas?

@NewbieCanuckFan I think had Aquilini's been in power then, we would have got a guy like Forsberg signed via free agency. Orca bay didn't spend anything back then... we never had the cap spend abilities of NYR, Avs, Wings, Toronto, etc... I remember those teams were like wayyyy wayyyyyyy higher than us in cap hit back in the day. There wasn't even a salary cap then.
Aquaman would have easily payed top dollar and acquired at least one or two more star players... he's always spent to make the team do better.
If Francesco was the owner around 2000-2004 we would have signed maybe a few more stars and won a cup in that era. Sakic? Yzerman? Forsberg? Niedermyer? All guys linked to Van as potential free agents but we never had the dough.
Or even a star goalie... I can't recall who the big name goalie free agents were around the 2000-2004 period.
