I think Cam would be a perfect pickup and nothing having to give anything up for him is a big bonus.

Nabatron 01-08-2013 03:32 PM

lets just say I barely saw Cam Barker get any ice time during th Spegnler Cup but for an over all depth defenseman not a bad pick up! I guess he would be an upgrade then Ryan Parent when we got him!

murd0c 01-08-2013 04:07 PM

So just found out this year the conferences won't play each other. The east plays the east and the west plays the west.

I think thats a pretty good call since there will be less to worry about travel but those eastern NY teams are beyond lucky being so close to each other.

Hondaracer 01-08-2013 04:12 PM

however its alot easier for Philly to take the train to DC than Canucks to fly to Dallas lol

Mike Oxbig 01-08-2013 04:28 PM

cam barker sucks, ship him to Winnipeg!

spideyv2 01-08-2013 04:37 PM

lol isn't Barker an alcoholic who just got cut from an AHL team?

Yeah, guyz, letz deffz pick him up. perfect pick fosho guyz. reclmation prjocedt ftrw gytz!

spideyv2 01-08-2013 04:38 PM

Everything I read about this guy isn't good, look at how much the guy has regressed every season. Sign him for league minimum, then release him half way through the season.

Perfect pick up.

MR_BIGGS 01-08-2013 04:46 PM

East playing east is a luxury for that conference. They stay in the same friggin time zone. Winnipeg probably has it the worst.

keifun 01-08-2013 05:10 PM

I thought with this season being only intra-conference matchups that they will move Winnipeg to the West and put a team like Columbus to the East.

Guess not.oh wells.

rsx 01-08-2013 05:48 PM

They most likely signed him for that old people requirement or whatever for training camp.

No, what the above posters were referring to was an actual contract, not a PTO.

No thanks, Jeff.

Cam Barker isn't even "old" :pokerface: If that's who you're talking about lol

Mike Oxbig 01-08-2013 07:37 PM

He isn't old but he sucks!



:derp: "How would you know? He was drafted behind ovechkin and malkin."

because i had him in my hockey pool and he fucking sucks!

SkinnyPupp 01-08-2013 07:38 PM

Cam Barker + Granville St = recipe for disaster

punkwax 01-08-2013 07:42 PM

Barker knows he's on thin ice (pun intended) career-wise. This is one of those 'hope for the best but expect the worst' situations. You never know, he might pull his head out of his ass and be a player.

Poor choice of words. "Veteran"?

Isn't there a requirement for training camp to have some vets there?

fake account

Not really racist! 01-08-2013 09:20 PM

bozak = do not want

theevilslave 01-08-2013 09:24 PM

IMHO I doubt Gillis would risk trading away Luongo in this shortened season. I think the goalie tandem is perfect for a deep playoff run in case one screws up. Lu can go end of season though, where there will be more time for better negotiations.

take all that media surrounding the issue with a grain of salt
Both Lu and Gillis WILL say the exact same thing to the press.

Until I hear it from a Press Release or what not, Luongo will be a Canuck throughout the camp and into the shortened season

:shhh:

My neighbour's uncle's pet cat's breeder told me that a deal consisting of Luongo + Ballard + Raymond + 2014 1st for Bjugstad + Gudbranson + Weiss + Theodore + Petrovic + Howden was 99.9% confirmed.

Trust me, he's legit. He called the Hodgson trade waaaay before anyone did !!!

spideyv2 01-08-2013 09:44 PM

Hamhuis-Bieksa
Garrison-Tanev

Dunno if you're joking or not, but how is that lineup impressive? Might as well call this team the Vancouver Panthers. And you traded Ballard and still have him in the lineup. I think you meant Garrison instead.
