Sedins are probably worth in the $4-$5M area each right now. Hometown discount with NMCs on 1-year deals may bring it down to $3.5M each.

Ultimately, if it’s a 1-year deal and we go with a bunch of kids on bridge deals and ELCs, it doesn’t really matter.

Its really a simple process for the Canucks.
You tell them at the end of the season you are interested in bringing them back for a 1 year deal to help prospects like Pettersson and Dahlen but at a lower cost(3-5mil) and guaranteed NMC.
If they ask for time, you reconnect June 1st & Jul 1 and tell them you would still appreciate them on the team but would need to know by August to move forward.
If they don't come back, you fill their positions by acquiring players that have short-term bad contracts, along with picks from other teams

not true. Canucks could have retained on one making it 10.5mil for both, or had reacquired Hansen for pennies and then retain on both. Add to the fact that teams would be sending back contracts freeing more space for them.
Out of teams in the playoffs/fighting for a spot and quickly glancing at available cap space/knowing contracts on the team.. LV, SJ, NJ, LA, NSH*, ANAH, FLA all could of fit them.
NSH would require them to trade a longer contract they have

OHL coaches poll came out http://ontariohockeyleague.com/artic...s-poll-winners
Gadjovich, Dipietro, Brassard all getting some love

Also BOESER off IR. (only paper move )

I don't think Sedins are going anywhere. They sounded pretty firm that their loyalty is with the Canucks and that they're content with their careers. Not winning a cup would be OK. They seem like the type that wouldn't ditch their family even for a few months to prioritize a cup opportunity over them.

Canucks, so good..............

at tanking

Score once to make it look like you're interested in winning, then take hundreds of penalties in hopes of losing lead and then game.

As few pure goal scorers as the Canucks have ever had, they've never had a marquee defenceman... Jeff Brown, Jyrki Lumme and Mattias Ohlund the closest things... but nothing close to a Lidstrom or a Karlsson. Not that Karlsson has won anything in the NHL lol

Murdoc is right, the NHL will never let us have him hahaha

Now that's how you sing the anthems. Pure and simple. Lots of power. None of this embellishing the song to hide your lack of talent.


Poor VanHoover Cannots. Way over their heads. I hope the VGK find it in their good christian hearts to show some compassion. 5-0 should be enough.
