Mike Vanderhoek Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 The Canucks have no players 1,2,3 years away from being top line material to replace the Sedins. Do you keep the Sedins and try and build/upgrade around them over the next 2-3 seasons to potentially have some players in place to slot into the top line as they decline ? Do you utilize their value now where it i'd have to assume has already peaked and will not get any higher and try and make a change to the top six bringing in maybe a younger topend piece to build around moving forward ? Let's not forget the Sedins are elite players, they have real value and have shown obviously not the past two seasons but that they can produce in the Playoffs and lead the team's offense. I would not be opposed to them remaining in Vancouver long term, both twins have suggested they feel they can play a ot more hockey. But now is the time if the team wants to change the face of the team moving forward to move the twins if you want to maximize your return, or Vancouver could sit on them as they decline....seemed to work with Luongo, not the decline part...

Primal Optimist Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 ^ that has a lot of merrit, some franchises simply have the ear of the commish, and some franchises would prefer to shake loose some guys, I am not even talking about the Canucks, I think they are in the non of the above column, but some really big franchises have some really big contracts.

Primal Optimist Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 I am curious what the combined bought out salaries of the short 2013 season and the 2013-14 season and even the 2014/15 season will amount to: my guess: at least equal to the full salary cap of a full team, but with less than 10 buyouts.

Bombastik der Teutone Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Day and Night for our Prospect Goalies last Night. Niederberger with his 2nd straight loss and a horrible GAA and SV%. He got pulled off the Ice 2 Times. The Series between London and Barrie is tied now. Nikals Svedberg and the P-Bruins won their Game against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins 4-2 last night . The Bruins leads the Series 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Speaking of trades.....Minny is in full offseason mode now that our exit from the playoffs is just a formality.

canuck2xtreme Posted May 12, 2013 Author Share Posted May 12, 2013 Any team can send in any trade, if teams involved in a trade are out of the Playoffs and their season is over I believe trades can go through, would need c2x to confirm this is true though. This is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Optimist Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 So the islanders won last night and finished their series using the 'wacky' tracking, and there are still 2 series ongoing. Using Otts/TM's tracking style the west was settled two nights ago along with all but the Buffalo/Boston match in the east which is still ongoing. For comparison sake I will toss the series running total points in brackets down below. Dallas-Vancouver is a fantastic example of how this style allows for some intrigue in a blowout matchup! . Sample Best of 7 Format Playoffs Quarterfinal Matchups Western Conference 08. Minnesota vs Los Angeles .01 Wins in 4 (302-161) 07. San Jose vs Winnipeg .02 Wins in 4 (231-136) 06. Edmonton vs Chicago .03 Wins in 4(183-170) 05. Dallas vs Vancouver .04 Wins 4 games to 3 (274-162) Eastern Conference 08. Quebec vs Florida .01 Wins 4 games to 1 (310-82) 07.

Primal Optimist Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 MSG NEWS 2013: offseason edition. New York has been busy quickly this offseason as well, with reports coming out of the MSG offices of Primal Optimist that two deals have been inked already and a third is well underway and likely will be completed this coming week. Several discussions were underway at the same time, leading this reporter to speculate that the GM might be in the hotseat with the owners, after failing to live up to his own hype about making a post season appearance. One thing is certain, GM PO is working like he owns the franchise, and that can only mean great things for New York Rangers fans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
