    I agree. He wants to be here. Show some class. Give the guy a 2 year deal at a fair price. He's worth it. 

     

    Like you said, unless it's an offer you can't refuse, forget about it.

    I think we extend Schenn unless there is a place he is ok going to and they are ok with him staying him with his family a couple of weeks.

     

    Doing something classy like not moving a guy when his wife is about to give birth could pay dividends greater than a pick.  We need to rehab our reputation amongst players as a lot of guys left with a bad taste in their mouths about the team after the last few years and hockey is a small community.

     

    The return would have to be something you can’t really turn down to make the move right now to me.

    The more picks the merrier...

     

    However if we do re-sign him, which I'm not against.. what do we think the contract looks like?

     

    2x4M? 3x5M?

     

    What is Schenn going to take?

    Other posters have suggested Lou Lam has a choice to give us the pick this year even if it’s in the top 12. So if it’s 10 we might still get it. 

    It's possible!

     

    I think he'd rather try betting on himself for next year though, and hopefully it bites him in the ass. Celebrini welcome to Vancouver!

     

    Imagine Bedard and Celebrini... Two Vancouver boys.

  3. At the end of the day whatever happens to JT Miller will be whatever Pettersson puts in managements ear. This is Pettersson's team, and if he can't handle JT - he'll be gone.

     

    However, with Petey being the unsuspecting quiet one... JT will still be here after the TDL.

     

    I personally don't have a problem with it. I think JT's got alot more to show. I question where that high end offensive drive went from last season. It was there night in night out and it seems like "poof" it's disappeared. A little boggling & concerning. 

     

    But again if Petey thinks he helps the team, he stays.

    That one heck of a trade.

     

    Though I am now concerned that the Blues have joined the tank battle.

    Our tank is looking good now but Chicago is slated to get alot worse (Kane, teows, McCabe, possibly Murphy gone..). Columbus will trade gavrikov. 

     

    I hope we keep selling for the tank!

  5. I could see Silovs pulling out a W tonight.

     

    Reality is though, none of the NHL teams have a solid scouting report on him. If he were up with the big club for the rest of the season teams will get a scouting report. Similar to Martin last year.. no one had a scouting report. Now he is getting exposed for his weakness (over commitment on cross ice passes and challenging the shooter too much).

     

    Silovs may show well and management might consider him as the backup next season.. but he needs to marinate longer in the A for one more year atleast.

    4 goals in 30 games is good for just around 11 goals in a year which is pretty much what you need from a 4th liner. It'd be nice if he was better at killing penalties, maybe Tocchet will drill that in to him.

     

    Our 4th liners of Lazar, Joshua and Studnicka at times haven't been bad, they've been pretty much what you expect from 4th liners 5-on-5, but like Rick said I think we need them to be better penalty killers. That should be their main job.

     

    Shame we had 3 of the best penalty killers in the league on our 4th line many times (going back to Lapierre/Higgins), and even more recently (Motte, Lammikko, Highmore) and we've pissed them all away.

    I'd take any of Lammikko, Highmore, Motte over Lazar and Studnicka to be honest.

     

    Studnicka still has potential to grow but I'm not sold on Lazar.
