Have learned the #Canucks have called the agent for UFA Dave Bolland. General talks have taken place.

@News1130Sports
The Bolland camp won't do anything with Vancouver until they resolve the Ryan Kesler situation.

makes sense...doubt anything major will happen until the floodgates open at the draft.

Ch28 06-25-2014 08:20 AM

No thanks to Bolland. He's played ~50 games over the past 2 seasons combined

OGCStrike 06-25-2014 08:22 AM

if kes is gone. stastny pls :accepted:

7seven 06-25-2014 08:26 AM

Bolland wanted somewhere around $5mil per for 7 years from the Leafs. Wouldn't want him at that price nor term, he's a 3rd line center ideally

411ken 06-25-2014 08:31 AM

Would the sedins want bolland here :P

to be fair...the other season was a shortened season lol :badpokerface:

but ya..I'd rather sign Ryan Malone for CHEAP (Even for 1 year) if possible as he just got bought out

jeedee 06-25-2014 08:52 AM

Bolland as the replacement for Kesler? :heckno:

Hope the Canucks target and sign Steve Ott. Drafted by Benning in Buffalo and coached by Desjardins when he was as assistant in Dallas, so the connection is there

Great faceoff and bottom 6 player

murd0c 06-25-2014 08:54 AM

all I know is I'm so excited, when ever someone posts in this thread I hope its some new juicy Canucks trade info.

pretty sure hes still banned and on substance abuse program. players who go to roxy end up bad enough, speeding around high on coke is another problem

hhaha had the same reaction. Bolland in Van? fuck that...he's crazy for asking that much term, only place he'll end up is on a team looking to get to the cap floor.

I'd rather take my chances with Malone and his coke habit for a year.

Hondaracer 06-25-2014 09:36 AM

Malone playing in the west? Lol ya no thanks

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun now

I believe that Gaborik's 7-yr deal is worth around $4.9 M or $5 M a year. I am working to confirm.
Damn...how the hell does the Kings have all that cap space?

Grandmaster TSE 06-25-2014 10:08 AM

good price for him overall

murd0c 06-25-2014 10:16 AM

wow that's a steal for him

#Canucks have called 2 big names UFA's today - Dave Bolland and Ryan Miller.
Apparently we called Miller too?

murd0c is right, I'm pretty excited this week on news from the Canucks.

Kesler Trade
#1 pick trade maybe...
UFA

Bouncing Bettys 06-25-2014 10:32 AM

Bolland is looking for a retirement contract. Not happy about giving up 3 picks for him if he finds another team. As always, no player is willing to play for a hometown discount in Toronto and I can't blame them.

jeedee 06-25-2014 10:40 AM

Bolland wants an 8 year deal worth Gaborik money.... :lawl:

Also wouldn't mind Miller on a short term... not confident with Lack/Markstrom duo..

Wouldn't mind waiting another year when Schneider is a UFA either :troll:

7seven 06-25-2014 10:44 AM

Have to believe Vancouver would be on Miller's list with his actress wife, or at least 3rd behind Anaheim and SJ. If Anaheim wants a vet to pair with either Gibson/Anderssen and SJ looking to move Niemi

slicrick 06-25-2014 10:48 AM

Gaborik for 5M per year sounds pretty good but for 7 years :heckno: he is already 32 and has a history of injuries.

If he can stay healthy and keep playing the way he has this season it could be a bargain for the Kings, this year and especially playoffs he looked completely different than the Gaborik that played for NYR he was going to the front of the net getting hit and not shying away from physical play I hope he can keep it up I was sad to see him leave from NYR I would of liked to see him play under Vigneault

Nikita Nikitin only got 400k less per year than Gaborik :lawl:

Benning drafted Miller as well when he was in Buffalo and they're on good terms supposedly

Doesn't hurt to put an offer for him

Gumby 06-25-2014 10:59 AM

It's great to hear that Benning is on good terms with a lot of people.

Unlike our previous GM... :fuckthatshit:

I didn't know that when I posted, I thought in the new CBA all players 35 or over if retired with years left would carry a cap penalty? or is that only when bought out?

The only part I didn't like was the length, the cap hit is really good



Callahan's new contract for TBL


Ch28 06-25-2014 01:14 PM

I'd gladly take Gaborik for $5 mill

Mike Oxbig 06-25-2014 01:22 PM

Lol why did i get fails for posting Canucks being interested in Miller few months back :fuckthatshit:
