The Sedin's 6th Sense Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 *Reasoning for getting more juiced upfront: Something along the lines of 17 goals in last 12 playoff games is it? Says all that you need to know - offensive is a priority + All the teams winning right now are winning cause they are pouring it offensively and ones that can't are struggling badly* 1.) To Vancouver: M. St Louis, E. Brewer To Tampa Bay: R. Luongo, K. Ballard, VAN 2013 3rd - We get a big time game breaker in St. Louis and arguably the best playoff performer in the NHL besides Brier. Brewer is guy we can swap with Ballard while losing cap and is a good shutdown guy and can rack up 20+ assists a year easily with our team. 2.) To Vancouver: K. Versteeg, S. Matthias To Florida: M. Raymond (Rights), A. Alberts, Y. Sauve, VAN 2013 2nd - Changes to VAN 2013 1st if Vancouver makes the SCF. - As much as you may dislike Versteeg, the guy is a proven winner and is another big time game breaker and like St. Louis. especially in the playoffs. Matthias is a depth player we get who can be help out the bottom 6. 3.) To Vancouver: N. Foligno, C. Neil, OTT 2013 2nd, Cond. OTT 2013 3rd if Booth reaches 50+ points. To Ottawa: E. Edler, D. Booth, VAN 2013 4th - Get arguably the beastest young big guy out there in Foligno and who can not only score but wear and tear and hit. Also, Neil is one of those pests that will put us over the top come post-season, its just how you gotta win now. 4.) Contracts: Sign Schneider 5 years, $18.75 million; $3.75 mill per year Sign Garrison 4 years, $15 million; $3.75 mill per year Sign Versteeg 3 years, $11.25 million; $3.75 mill per year Sign Folgino 3 years, $9 million; $3 mill per year Sign Salo 1 year, $2 million Sign Gragnani 3 years, $2.625 million; $875K per year Sign Rome 1 year, $900K Roster: Sedin - Sedin - Burrows (Sedinary) Foligno - Kesler - St. Louis (Hitting, Play Making & Scoring) Hansen - Matthias - Versteeg (2nd, 2nd Line & All Speed) Higgins - Lapierre - Neil (Goon & Scoring) Kassian, Malhotra Hamhuis - Bieksa Brewer - Garrison Salo - Tanev Gragnani, Rome Schneider FA Cap Hit = $65. 726 Million In Cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franz Liszt Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Ottawa trade is a little bit of an overpayment. But I'd like to say this - People are starting to step it up to my level of extreme here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucksbiggestfan Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 As long as we're not trading Alex Edler, it's fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pears Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Overpayment on the Booth trade. What about this counter offer? To Vancouver: Nick Foligno + Chris Neil To Ottawa: David Booth + Anton Rodin + 2012 & 2013 2nd's (Van) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nd84 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Don't think this guarantees a cup and even if it does those trades are definitely not guaranteed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pink Sock Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Why does Florida trade Versteeg? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 St Louis is pretty old, and won't have many years left in him. FLA won't want to give up Versteeg after the season he just had. OTT trade is an overpayment. I like the idea of the FLA trade though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sedin's 6th Sense Posted May 24, 2012 Author Share Posted May 24, 2012 So....St. Louis trade is good, and the Filigno trade is an overpayment on our side? That's all to complain about? If so, I'm happy and did good : ) Foligno is a young upcoming force and there's a price to pay when you go after these types of players. Plus, and overpayment is what it'll take to get him cause I doubt Ottawa would do it if it didn't put them over the bar. St. Louis makes us magic, simple as that, and I think the Versteeg deal is possible just because of the relationship we have with Florida. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. White Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Why does everyone want to trade Edler? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franz Liszt Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Is there a way you can snag Marcus Foligno as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Sedin Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 Love the trades, but the second trade we underpay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanKeslord17 Posted May 25, 2012 Share Posted May 25, 2012 The Florida one is an underpayment. Others are pretty good though. One change I would make is to switch Foligno and Versteeg.
