canucks organization really had a bad relationship with burke eh?

^ Is that shit signed as well? If not, no thanks into paying 400 just for a picture/frame. I'm a cheapass

unless you want to hook us up with the discount haha jk

Edit: Ok, it looks like it is. http://www.gameonsports.ca/products....ff9de81&catID=

Now hook me up with the discount hahaha

The Premium games (Premium meaning those ones that are very high demand and mostly attended by corporate people and rich people) tend to be more low key. They come in their suits and ties, bring clients, and tend not to get all rowdy.

Also, this game wasn't the most exciting I've ever seen...

Exciting game or not, winning the game is the most important. I'm sure the fans were tired cheering during the ceremony.

Highlights for me:

Trevor's speech

5 minute standing ovation, wouldn't let shorthouse continue

The video clips of Trevor smashing the glass

When Harold Snepts said "When Trevor was young, he and I would go out for dinner, and I'd have a glass of wine and he'd have a glass of milk"

And when they booed Gary Bettman

I think I might actually spend the money and do the whole Behind the Autograph: Face-to-Face with Trevor Linden. For $867 you get

- Two passes for you and your guest to be part of an intimate group of people getting quality time with Trevor Linden.
- A tour of Trevor's personal collection of memorabilia. See his first skates, his game worn jerseys and lots more of his gear never before seen by the public.
- Your choice of an autographed game ready Linden Jersey, or one of thee limited edition signed and framed pictures taken of linden's final game that make great Christmas presents.($450 value) (The 3 pictures are the wave, when he takes his final step off the ice, and his the last time he walks in the tunnel back to the dressing room.
- $100 gift certificate to GameDayAuction.com
- $50 gift certificate to the Players Chophouse Steakhouse and Bar.
- A limited edition Trevor Linden 'behind the autograph' puck.

$450 memorabilia + $150 in gift certs to places you would probably use means you technically end up paying like $267 to meet Linden and to actually spend time and chit chat with him. Seems like a decent deal to me.

watched the tribute from work. awesome tribute video.

That would be nice but it looks like the max would be 116 times 2 so that's quite a bit of ppl already. and looking at his site, the price states 1067 http://www.linden16.com/behind_autograph .

[QUOTE=411ken;6180686]The guy running it last night told me he would sell it to me for $867. Of course I'm not dumb, I know it wasn't really a hook up to just me and after doing some digging I found Gamedayauctions ad on craigslist for this event where he states he would sell it to anybody for $867 if they wanted in.

You've described a large portion of the lower bowl crowd. :p

With like, 4 minutes left last night, people already started leaving! :mad:

CANUCKS SIGN MATS SUNDIN!!!!!

http://canucks.nhl.com/team/app/?ser...ticleid=398872

:thumbsup:

wow thats pimp. I mean I hate Mats but I can't argue the fact that our team will be better with him and we didn't lose anything to gain him other then money. Finally it comes to an end.

I looked at the event from linden16.com too - it just seems so sketchy! I can't imagine Linden himself allowing people to profit from this event. None of the money seems to be going to any charitable organizations.

I'd like to meet Linden in person too, but I don't want to get ripped off either.

I have tickets to the Anaheim game on Monday. Hopefully he'll be playing by then...

SUNDIN AGREES TO DEAL WITH CANUCKS
12/18/2008 6:04:07 PM

After six long months, the Mats Sundin saga is finally over as the unrestricted free agent has agreed to a contract with the Vancouver Canucks.


The signing ended months of rumours and speculation around the coveted centre, who was undecided on whether or not he would return to the National Hockey League for an 18th season.


The Montreal Canadiens were given exclusive rights to talk to Sundin this past summer in the week leading up to the free agent signing period. The club's negotiating window passed without an agreement and as many as six NHL teams lined up to acquire his services.


Among the teams interested over the last six months were the Canadiens, Chicago Blackhawks, Philadelphia Flyers, Ottawa Senators, Toronto Maple Leafs, Vancouver Canucks and the New York Rangers.


The Canucks had the most lucrative offer for Sundin, with a two-year, $20 million contract that was never pulled off on the table.


Sundin, 37, finished with 32 goals and 46 assists for 78 points in 74 games last season with the Leafs, leading Toronto in scoring for the fourth straight year.


The franchise leader in goals and points, he has played 13 of his 17 NHL campaigns with the Maple Leafs, who acquired him from the Quebec Nordiques in 1994.


Sundin has 555 goals and 1,321 points in 1,305 career NHL games since he was drafted first overall by Quebec in 1989. He re-wrote Toronto's record book over his 13 seasons in blue and white, scoring 420 goals and a franchise-best 987 points.


In 83 playoff games, Sundin has scored 35 goals and 74 points, with all but four of those points coming in a Leafs uniform. The two-time second-team NHL All-Star also won a gold medal with Team Sweden at the Torino Olympics in 2006.
