Brad Marchand Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I worry about his concussion issues this season but I wouldn't hesitate to bring him back on a short-term deal. Wonder if he's interested in coming back, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejazz97 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 It's good that you decided to Ehr this idea out. It'd be interesting if they did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junkyard Dog Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Rather get Franson or Green if we have the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Or how about something radical like trade for a young, fast, talented d-man who's just about ready to make the jump to the NHL? Why do we always look to the past for answers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baer. Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 My money is on him signing with a new york team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billabong Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I don't think he's the player he was 4 years ago and he's a lefty so our power play will continue to stink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 He's not close to what he used to be. He's had concussion issues and was on pace for 23 points in a full 82 games last year. Had 33 points the previous year. He's also turning 33 in the summer. People expecting him to save this team are just reminiscing 2011 and forgetting that 4 years have passed and players have changed.

The Magician Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 I was looking at FA's and was thinking what would happen if we brought him back lawl. Didn't see him play at all this year though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuckin_futz Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 No more retreads. How about going out and finding the next Christian Ehrhoff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter_74 Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Or how about something radical like trade for a young, fast, talented d-man who's just about ready to make the jump to the NHL? Why do we always look to the past for answers? Get a UFA for virtually nothing, whom we can trade for assets. Or give up a ton of assets for a prospect. hmmm. Would rather get Hoff and draft our own Dman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zerox Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 Pros: - Been in Vancouver before - Good Chemistry with Edler and Sedins that you won't find elsewhere (Sedins & Edler will not be moved for the next 2 yrs anyways) - The major reason why our powerplay was ranked No. 1 - UFA, doesn't cost you picks or Assets. Just Money. - In worse situation, you can just trade him away for picks again. - Can rush/carry the puck over the blueline that usually generate offense - Crazy snap shot that beats goalie unexpectedly (watch the replays) - Mentor defenseman for the powerplay (aka Edler, Sbisa) Cons: - Concussion issue? Injury serious or not? - Could be a turnover machine at times. - How much will he be asking for? If over 3.5 or 4.0 Mill. Then NO. - He will not be signed for long term. 2 yr MAX. The Nucks will need this guy for his puck-moving skill and snap shot on the powerplay. Even if Edler tried, he can't replicate what Ehrhoff did on a consistant basis. If there is someone that understands the Sedin's play, it will BE THIS GUY. This missing guy that can complete their powerplay. Not Edler, not Bieksa, not some other random dude. BUT THIS GUY. ------ Let's be honest, there is no one on the team/in the system that can repeat what this guy can do for the next coming 2 yrs at least. Sedins & Edler will not be moved anyways. Might as well perfect the powerplay by inserting this guy. And for young studs D-man like Seabrook/Green/Franson, they are NOT going to come cheap. Will probably demand 6.0 to 7.0 mill. This guy MIGHT come at a reasonable pricing. Buffalo & Pittsburgh doesn't even know how to use this guy wisely. But we DO. So if he is still health, can play, and want to come to Vancouver. I am 100% in on taking a gamble with this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiznac Posted April 26, 2015 Share Posted April 26, 2015 In a perfect world I would like to sign Franson 4.5 mill and Green 6.5 mill and move Edler and Beiksa .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever signs these two in the off-season will likely regret the signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
