Damn exciting couple days to say the least..can't wait to see what follows July 1

Flames traded for a forward.

Lamers at it again, bahahaha

Flames have alot of work if they r going to sign jaybo...
3players command 20mil and u add him into the mix...wow flames smart

no one thinks Lu picking the first pick by himself is kinda a big deal?

it can mean alot
or mean nothing
hopefully it means the deal is done and the rumors are true.

the focus shifts to the twins. arg

Personally I think it means something. IMO I doubt he's there at the draft table and going up on stages announcing our draft if he hasn't already agreed to an extension but that's just me.

Feels the same as the captaincy offer.

There's really no reason or purpose. But feels like a lot of ass kissing to convince Lu to stay in the franchise long term.

Canucks thinking he is God......:(

Hope the rumors are not true.

Vancouver Canucks general manager Mike Gillis met with Henrik and Daniel Sedin's agent, JP Barry, late Friday night following round one of the NHL Entry Draft.

The Canucks did not table a counter proposal to the Sedin's recent 12-year, $63 million dollar pitch, and sources say Gillis gave no indication a counter offer is coming.

The Sedins are scheduled to become unrestricted free agents on July 1.

Last season, the Sedins were 1-2 in scoring for the Canucks. Daniel led the team with 31 goals and 51 assists, while Henrik had 22 goals and 60 assists. Both played in all 82 games for Vancouver, and averaged nearly 20 minutes of ice time per match.

My gut is telling me the Sedins are done in Vancouver.

^^ ya, probably.

fuck....

couple more anxious days :/

I think so too. When Gillis took over Nonis, he didn't seem very sold on the Sedins in the first place. Seemed like he had a different direction in mind.

I think they will get a deal done.

Good on him for thinking that, in my mind Sedins will make us an average team ony, they dont have what it takes to get us to the promise land.:)

Mang am I stocked about Cody and Jordan!

hope this isn't a repost

:haha:

What did he mumble in the end?

I wish that were true in Vancouver?

something like "I wish it were that short in Vancouver"

"I wish they were that short in Vancouver"

Lu is referring to the short interview compared to the ever ending ones he gets in Vancouver

but we wouldn't want to be playing against the sedins either..

QFT sooo QFT

But reality is, the sedins were building blocks here, and if they dont fit the grabner and hodgeson equation...uh oh
