Tough for the sedins to be productive when they are pretty the only line producing...... thus, other team only needs to really put pressure on them.

Gumby 11-01-2013 04:01 PM

With their new contacts, wonder if the Sedins will be making any other donations soon... ;)

That's what Ottawa figured with Alfie when they lowballed him.

It's a fair contract all around. Canucks didn't really get any hometown discount, Sedins get to stay where they want with an opportunity to move on and win with another team if the Canucks can't do it over the next 4 years, which hopefully gives the kids enough time to develop and inherit the team. If we're lucky, there may be a year or two where the kids and Sedins all contribute in big ways at the same time.

If we let them walk the Canucks will be a bottom 3 team in the league next year. There's no one on the market to replace their production with.

Jmac 11-01-2013 05:29 PM

If the cap goes up, we can trade them for Bickell ... :pokerface:

Good on Torts for standing up for the twins in the post-signing presser.

kristianhay 11-01-2013 05:50 PM

EDIT: Whoops, didn't even look above :okay: He did edit the post though...video uploaded at 6:32 post at 6:21 ya assholes! Haha.

Holtby clearly wanted no part of that fight, pretty surprised the refs OR his own teammates didn't intervene. The guy got pumped.

Emery is such a sack of shit, such a douchebag in person too. He better get suspended for that, charging down the ice to jump a player who wanted no part of a fight, then continuing to punch him in the back of the head while he's down. Not sure what the ref was thinking allowing that to happen either. Even Flyers fans on their boards are pretty digusted with Emery.

RiceIntegraRS 11-01-2013 05:59 PM

wtf was Volpatti doing? Hes a fighter and somehow managed not to drop his gloves? Reminds me when Sedin was getting punched and Oreskovich didnt do shit

Mike Oxbig 11-01-2013 06:00 PM

The ref should be suspended, Emery is landing punch on the team Canada Olympic backup goalie for sochi 2014

XplicitLuder 11-01-2013 06:01 PM

Jesus. I'd b furious as a coach lol emery was practically stealing candy from a baby, and repeatedly lmao

Holmgren says Downie has a concussion from fight. Lecavalier has a facial injury and will miss time.
Things just get worse for the Flyers, ouch.

Just an FYI. If Ray Emery ever decides to skate down the ice and try to fight me I'm getting the fuck out of dodge!!!
:fullofwin:

!Nhan 11-01-2013 06:35 PM

is there a rule stating that ref's are unable to break up fights? i always see them just stand there and do nothing while there is only two lines men to break up multiple fights.

radioman 11-01-2013 06:55 PM

Where is big herb dean when you need him...

Any other player hitting another player when he is down on the ice and the back of the head would be in hot water.

Hope Emery sees some fines/suspension time.

Not really racist! 11-01-2013 07:44 PM

Fitting that the ref standing right there was St Laurent?

Retard doesn't even give a damn and watches as one player gets beat down

CorneringArtist 11-01-2013 07:56 PM

For anyone that wants to see the line brawl in full.

Ronin 11-01-2013 08:26 PM

Holtby goes after Emery's face so I think he said something to the ref that made the ref back off and let them go. Maybe Holtby had enough of Emergy jawing at him? Maybe Holtby's trash talked Emery a little too much and the ref thought he should get his face punched in.

Mike Oxbig 11-01-2013 08:49 PM

Daniel to Henrik... waitwut?

Sedins with a four year contract with 7 million per year. This just doesn't make any sense. What is even more hilarious is that they are on the decline as of right now, yet they get a 0.9 million dollar raise. If Vanek could yield a first round pick, second round pick and a solid roster player, I'm pretty sure the Sedins could yield this kind of return considering some contending teams still have high regard on the sisters. Darcy Regier at least is doing something right, bombing the next couple of seasons to obtain generation talents such as McDavid. Laugh at the Sabres now, but in a couple of years, the Canucks will be in the same boat, but nothing to trade to get draft picks. If the Canucks can think rebuild now, this franchise could still be saved, if not look like we will be watching least another woeful 5-8 years of dismal hockey in Vancouver.
lol

Mike Oxbig 11-01-2013 10:44 PM

Im sure we all know the conspiracy of the 05 draft. The Penguins franchise was financially in trouble and drafting Sidney Crosby saved that organization from being relocated.

My guess McDavid will end up going to NJ, BUF or PHX :heckno:
but i hope he goes to Calgary

GrapeDrink 11-01-2013 11:24 PM

^new jersey doesn't even own their first round pick this year ... the sedins contract is fine, people are dumb and don't understand that the cap isn't the same or the fact that 6 mil was a fucking steal for the Sedins and I don't even like them. For all the talk bout Sedins in decline they were 7th and 12th in scoring last season in the West and currently 1 and 4.
