Re: Forsberg?
Toucan said: Would I offer Willie Mitchell a two year 5 million dollar deal? Sure. Would he take it? Uh, likely no. We've already lost Ohlund . We pay 2 barely competent dmen over 3.5 mill ( Edler and Bieksa ) and Mitchell is not in his mid 30's... age right now is 32... Mitchell is by far our most...

Re: Back to back games
Dunno the anwers really.. but its still the same problem.. too big a salary load for a ' fringe ' sport.. meaning too many games... too much travel and a lot worse product on the ice.. WTF is a Vancouver team doing travelling to Florida for hockey????? ... maybe break the NHL up.. to a western leagu...

Re: Forsberg?
Board needs a " capologist " :) , but I doubt we could bring in Forsberg without shedding salaries. Maybe trading away Wellwood who would be redundant and 1 of either Edler or Bxa would do it . Bring in a 1 mill dman and/or Rome or Baumer.. With Salo and Schneider as point men we wouldn't be losing ...

Re: Back to back games
I kind of agree with both dork but would take it one step further.. Make it like the Playoffs.. day rest and travel.. then 2 days b2b against the same team .. It would work out well and foster division rivalries.. Not sure why we are now playing 3 days off.. 2 games b2b while travelling 2 time zones...

Re: Canucks/Moose @ Dallas/Texas Starss! 5:30pm PST SPAC/PPV
Hard game to watch... only a couple Canucks playing well... Schneider deserved better support he had a great game. Pettinger and the 4th line looked good ..Edler again sucked along with most of the Canucks. SOB had a good game... drawing a penalty instead of taking one :) Sorry Jelly.. he was one of...

Re: More bottom 6 talk
And if/when Demitra suits up?? Sedin Sedin Samuelsson.. ( Samuelson gets the nod over Demitra - more willing to go to dirty area ) Raymond/Grabner Kesler Demitra. Benier Bolduc Burrows ( a tough checking line ) Pettinger/Johnson/Rypien/Hordi Wellwood has offensive upside but for a checking/defensive...

Re: No Dancing to Lady Gaga Next Game SOB Suspended
a 1 game suspension?.. league is equalizing for the Byers 1 gamer.. Next time I hope he does a bit more damage to Avery and gets 10 :).. Yeah we might actually play a responsible defensive game for once. as the worst offenders on responsible defence are Edler and Bieksa I don't see how this will mak...

Re: GDT: Rangers visit Canucks, 7:00 PM, TSN, 1040
Jelly school of hockey? .. yep kesler took the original penalty... so SOB"s fault? ... SOB was the guy clearing Avery away from the net all night while getting cheap slashes and giving out a few of his own.. I just wish SOB had a longer reach and could have shoved the stick square up Avery's butt !!...

Re: GDT: Rangers visit Canucks, 7:00 PM, TSN, 1040
Hell of a game.. Kesler was superb.. and AV deserves full credit for getting great mileage out of a patched together team.. Great to see the whole team playing a good defensive game. yeah SOB's penalty was dumb... but his play and ballz inspire fear in the opponents - and he is cheap :). Tanner Glas...
