Linden just said that the Canucks won't ask Edler to waive his NTC so I guess he's in their plans for the future. If he is, then Kesler really should be kept around but I feel that a team will make a great offer for him at the draft and Benning won't have a choice but to pull the trigger. It'll be something like Kesler for a couple of very nice young players that help us transition away from the Sedin era and towards our new prospects.

Trading Tanev would be the biggest mistake in the book right now (he was by far our MVP on the blueline last season), and Hamhuis was, like Tanev, somehow a +10 or +12 despite our team being around a -20 so to touch either of them would be silly. Bieksa is the heart and soul of this team but if we're trading Kesler, anyone's name could be on the block - I wouldn't mind moving Bieksa and changing the complete leadership core of this team if it meant we got some very nice young guys back.

seems like a lot of people want garrison gone? I think he deserves a good season with a good coach before we toss him. he's shown signs of great potential, maybe with some good coaches and this team not being in shambles he'll shine. look at dale weise, he was terrible here, went to MTL and looked like a completely different player. garrison probably wouldn't net too much in return right now anyways, it'd be a waste.
