No one likes the Leafs, but I'd rather have any team win over Boston.

in the running
thats good enough for me as its not 100% and only speculation. Keep it that way
i dont wanna lose a core piece of the puzzle to fit that 5mil cap

that most likely means burrows is part of the puzzle. cuz theres no way its gonna be roberto

Raymond today "I'm never going to be 100% again"

IMO we need to get rid of players who can no longer ever play at 100% ie. Raymond/manny

Let's be realistic guys... we're gonna have to give up some of our core to receive a player like Ryan.. making trade proposals with players we don't need is completely out of the question right now..

thats the thing
are we still in the void for that top6 position...

fitting that cap is the issue here.
like the article says, INSTANT HELP means asests the canucks can potentially move. I dont think goaltending is that big of an issue in Anaheim.

Well, it looks as if it may also have to do with a salary dump so I wouldn't put it completely out of the question.

Ducks are struggling financially so I wouldn't at all be surprised for something like prospects and a mayray/manny.

^ Problem is that we don't have the cap room.

For Ryan to fit in our cap, we'd have to give up something like MayRay AND Manny -- I'm not saying that Anaheim would take that trade. I am merely suggesting a near equivalent salary hit. Manny has a limited NTC anyway, and our defensive game would suffer hugely if Manny left.

possibly, but thats not a very good deal for the ducks and knowing the caliber of player we are dealing with, the pricetag will be inflated

The thing with the Ducks right now is they are already up against an extremely tight internal budget and they need depth. They don't want to trade Getzlaf or Perry, so Ryan is an option to bring back some depth for them. Ducks wanted Comeau on waivers but had to pass due to their internal budget and had to wait for Hagman to be put on re-entry before grabbing him.

A trade to get Ryan will likely involve quality 2nd and 3rd liners going back and maybe prospects, but their combined salaries likely won't be more than Ryans.

They might as well trade with somebody else then lol, that makes us far less attractive trading partner...

"Bob McKenzie on TSN 1050 said that Anaheim would be looking for a #2 center, Top 4 defenseman, and a 1st/prospect for Bobby Ryan."

It will depend on what the Ducks ACTUALLY want in return
if its internal budgeting, than instant impact players such as depth could be out of the question

the canucks just DO NOT have the luxury of giving ANY prospects
