				Hilarious, all of you.    
Patterson, as of 20 mins ago, and almost verbatim: "We've gotten word that the Canucks will announce some kind of player acquisition tomorrow. There is no planned press conference, there is no planned time. It could be through a press release, a la Bernier, or it could be something more. But as of this evening, all TEAM 1040 knows, is that tomorrow, an announcement will be made, and it will involve player acquisition."   
You're all such eager beavers.   
All you have to do is turn on your radio for five minutes and I'm sure he'll give the whole spiel again.

			If it's the Demitra signing, I wonder why Gillis wouldn't just announce it rather then building it up so much.

			I don't think you can really build up a trade because a trade is a trade and it happens when it happens... unless Gillis went to the other GM and said, yo I want to build this up in my hometown so let's seal it tomorrow...  
Unlikely...

			So chances are, the announcement is going to involve a free agent signing of some sort then, because as mentioned  above, if it's a trade, there wouldn't be any sense in building it up or whatever

			a poster on hockey futures says it is 100% sundin signing and he has a "inside source"  he's a long time member of the boards and seems to be respected by other posters, but still take it with a grain of salt.

			Alright so they swapped Naslund for Demitra. If they get a decent center...*caugh* Sundin then  think it would fair to say on paper they made the team better then last year.

			Allegedly Emery was looking for a starting position and none of the teams that contacted him were offering such a deal.

			More Rumor:  
according to  http://www.nhlline.ca/fa_frenzy.html  "The Vancouver Canucks have inquired about the availability of New Jersey Devils' forward Brian Gionta. However the Canucks aren't going to make any offer until Mats Sundin makes an official decision."        |
