Ryan Kesler as community relations expert?

If the players burned Foote in their exit interviews, then I would be in favour of his dismissal. Hopefully this means they will pass on Maholtra at 3, assuming Manny is promoted.

If they want Jr, use the Minny pick and some mi rounders to move up to 5 - 7 and take him then.

Would you pick him at third Donny?

Is Carels a RD?

I would sign Buium for a long term deal this off season, hopefully 8 x 7m but no more than to 8 x 8m.

If they fall into Canucks lap, sure but I wouldn’t give up too many assets to pick them both.

A GM's self-preservation termination.

Yeah, apparently K had quite the end of season interview with the GM too

Canucks to hold press conference at 1 pm PST.

Oilers fire Knobhead

It’s a glorious morning. Canucks pick will be 24th unless Anaheim knock out Vegas.

So is the new management group official yet?

I mentioned in another post today full NMC's are moveable, but Filip's could be tricky. Not sure why he insists on sticking around for this. Guessing by mid way next season he will have had enough. Why so horny to trade him? We need a few veterans who don’t suck, or the losing culture will set in a ...

Which one of them plays 3C then?

Neither, EP 40 does.
