That probably isn't even a legit rumour, someone probably went in there and edited for fun :haha::haha:

I was looking up Gaborik's playoff stats and as I was scrolling down, I saw his team was listed as the Vancouver Canucks, I was like WTF!? :haha:

6thGear. 07-08-2008 11:55 PM

lol. wtf!??!? i just saw it as well!! ah man. i said it be cool if we got gaborik. it'll be like bure part II. if this is true its definitely the best kept trade secret in vancouver history

AzNightmare 07-09-2008 12:05 AM

Definately not true. Wikipedia gets it's sources from elsewhere.
If TSN or NHL.com doesnt say it first, don't believe the rest.

lol Emery to sign in Russia

Quote:

While the 25-year-old hoped to play in the NHL next season, his agent J.P. Barry got just three calls.

Unfortunately, it's only been a short time since the buyout and there isn't anybody willing to give (Emery) a second chance at this time," said Barry

Quote:

has agreed to a one-year deal which could pay him in excess of $2 million plus bonuses next season with Atlant Mytishchi of the newly-formed Continental Hockey League in Russia, Sun Media has learned.

Every time TSN gives me a text message I get really excited to see if it's demitra/sundin...

God I really hope we sign them...

When it matters most, Daniel has 18 pts in 43 playoff games, Henrik has 20 pts in the same 43. They also went cold down the stretch this season when we were trying to make the playoffs.

kovalchuk has fuck all playoff experience (round 1 sweep???). i think the situation that the canucks have to face is that we can replace the sedins with a single marquee player that needs at least one decent line-mate to feed him the puck, or we can keep the sedins who are becoming marquee players (and who are willing to take home-team discounts) and then try to find one decent player (bernier???) to enhance their productivity. gillis said that he isn't going to build the team around the sedins, but i have a feeling they'll be in this city for a while.

this is retarded to even talk about, but....ovechkin has a 13 year contract. we'd have to pay him what he signed for. bure was taken advantage of by being offered canadian dollars when he first signed. when he smartened up, he held out.

tr0ubl3s0m3x 07-09-2008 12:39 PM

^well, we gotta make it into the playoffs first

the_rickster 07-09-2008 12:50 PM

what's that supposed to mean?

AzNightmare 07-09-2008 01:35 PM

Kovalchuk's a good impact player but without knowing how he will do playing in the west, and he's pretty much unproven in playoff since he only has 4 games experience, hard to say if he will fit in with Canucks.

Why are you guys even talking about Ovechkin. Washington would rather trade the entire team before letting him go. And considering Ovechkin's attitude, he'll enjoy playing hockey whether if Washington tanks to last place or becomes the best team in the league. So he's not gonna demand a trade anytime soon.

Left hand column is eastern team deals, right hand column is western team deals.

Harvey Specter 07-09-2008 02:28 PM

WTF, I would never play in Russia if I was Emery.

Gumby 07-09-2008 02:37 PM

Would you rather not play at all, or play in Russia for a few million?

:werd:

Emery made the smart decision to go to Russia for the season. No team was interested in him and he gets paid and gets to stay in shape. Hopefully a team will pick him up the following season.

no way, :gtfo:
I'll shit my pants if that happens. (that is if Sundin is included in the package)

Hondaracer 07-09-2008 04:59 PM

Pratt and Taylor never said there was going to be a special announcment

they just speculated there would be due to Gillis cancelling their interview

murd0c 07-09-2008 05:07 PM

hmmmm really now, my interest is peaked cause I can't see the special announcment being just for demitra since it won't be that big of a suprise

point being? how does that compare to the rest of the team with playoff experience?? luongo never had any either, everyone didn't know how he was gonna hold the pressure. kovulchuk is a superstar. he isn't you typically run of the mill player. he's always near the top of the scoring list every year. he's a gamebreaker. something this team desperately needs. lets say he only scores 30 goals in the west, but 18 of those goals are GWG or an equalizer. would you have the same tune?
