Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Enter Kiprusoff and Dutter. A miracle trip to the Finals in 2004, that was VERY reminiscent of Anaheim's run on the back of Giguere, and suddenly the Flames are the post lockout hockey world's heavy favorites. They didn't add much in the way of marquis talent either. They had a good regular season,...

DAVE, FUCK OFF WITH THE CAPS YOU ARE NOTHING SPECIAL HERE. And Jesus what's wrong with your grammar dude? You're supposed to do this for a living ... Oh and no poker is not a sport! WHATEVER MORON DP Dave, just some friendly advice. You look like an absolute amateur using caps, and insulting your t...

WHy not? Florida desperately needs some offense. Gomez will be a good 3rd liner for them for damned cheap. And, he'll likely have 3 or 4 dominating games throughout the year, where he shows flashes of his former self. Interesting, a reasonably cap hit for veteran depth. Florida Panthers ‏@FlaPanther...

As of today if they sign Grabby? 1. Ennis 2. Grabovski 3. Ott 4. Porter Not looking good for Holdout Hodgson... Seriously? Grabovski is better then CoHo, but, Ennis?? And to rank Coho behind Ott and Porter is a complete joke. I don't know what the kid is asking for, but CoHo is worth easily as much...

Players that the Oilers need to re-sign or replace next season: Hemsky ($5m) Nugent-Hopkins ($3.775m) Smyth ($2.25m) Schultzes ($3.775m and $3.5m) Petry ($1.75m) Grebeshkov ($1.5m) Dubnyk ($3.5m) A total of $25.05m cap hit for these 7 players. Nugent-Hopkins and the Schultzes will probably cost the...

Booth and Kassian actually had some nice chemistry last season before Booth's annual season-ender. :scowl: It was one of the few times Kassian looked halfway decent last year outside of the first couple weeks of the season. Maybe Torts could alternate Booth and Burrows on the Sedin and Kesler line ...

To me that is one of the keys with Booth, he needs a centre that will distribute the puck. Kesler can do that but he is more of a shoot first type of centre, and when his shot is on I have no problem with that. They did show glimpses of good chemistry and then Booth's injury problems began and they...

Frankly, I'm not sure why people are so surprised. As long as he's okay with playing against inferior opponents in a lesser league... People are surprised because a top player is okay with playing against inferior opponents in a lesser league. :mex: For more money, and likely less physical contact ...

Getting cap space without using a compliance buy-out would be a meaningful return :lol: . What a sad indictment on the state of the league where that can be a true statement. If Gillis gets a 3rd-rounder for him, so much the better. Heck, Ballard and a 6th just for the cap space isn't even a bad Ca...

I can't be the only person who is totally baffled that Erik Karlsson will be back playing tonight...wasn't his achilles tendon nearly totally severed less than 10 weeks ago? Am I totally missing something? Those types of injuries usually take like 6 months to recover from. Maybe it was a clean cut,...

Belfour, Esposito, Hasek, Hall.....maybe throw Rollins in there. So I really don't think having to run with a backup in Emery and an AHL call-up makes a difference to them. Ant the Canucks had Lou, McLean and Brodeur. Hmm. Lou it top notch, but McLean and Brodeur were not ever considered top 10 goa...

6 years, $5 milion per year. Whoot!!

I'd like to congratulate Alex Edler on agreeing to terms on a new multi-year deal. Details to follow.

Hopefully it's 5 mill or under

There goes our Ellis plans for backup, now we probably need another goalie in return in the RL trade. The #hurricanes have signed goalie Dan Ellis to a one-year deal worth $650,000. TRADE: #Canes acquire Kevin Westgarth from #LAKings in exchange for Anthony Stewart and two draft picks: http://m.car...

Dumber than the "Brotha" line with Anson Carter?
