Six years is likely what was required to sign the deal, and we kinda needed a guy like this. I bet he ages a hell of a lot better than Looch anyway. Everyone should be forced to understand this before hitting "reply". 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCNeil Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 1 minute ago, khay said: To make the playoffs, we need to score at least 220 to 230 goals. We scored 191 last season. Eriksson immediately adds 25-35 goals, giving us about 220 goals. If there is improvements from the young players and if the Sedins produce a bit better, we might make the playoffs. Math doesn't really work like that. Hansen will offset some of that not playing with the Sedins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've noticed this as well. They've covered a lot of the smaller deals as well but they don't seem to want to talk about Eriksson at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down by the River Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 You can't attract UFA without giving longer-term deals. Big names want the security, pretty simple. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whytelight Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 If the three of them can give us 50-60 points each for 4 years, I'd be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilya Mikheyev Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 Quote Henrik finished with 9 points in 4 games, while Daniel finished with 6. Loui Eriksson was Sweden's top scorer with 10 points, but he played in all 10 games. The area where the Sedins helped the most was on the power play... Secondly, the twins showed great chemistry with linemate Loui Eriksson, who is rumoured to be on the trade market. Is an Edler-for-Eriksson swap a possibility? He's one of the more well-rounded players in the NHL, and would provide the shot of offense the team has needed for two seasons now. With their new super weird gold helmets, the Sedins are one trophy away from hockey's Triple Gold Club. Even though they were a game away in 2011, somehow the twins still carry around this stigma that they can't win when it matters. Because of that, it was fun to see them not just win gold but carry a team while doing it. They proved they can win, and that at 32-years-old they still have a lot left in the tank.

EmilyM Posted July 1, 2016 Share Posted July 1, 2016 To people who are saying this is Vrbata 2.0, remember that Loui is no bruiser, but he is very efficient as a two-way player. He can also play the PK for goodness sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
