Can the Rangers do Sweden a favor & send Lundqvist to the World Championships immediately? I just want to make sure the Rangers go out in Round 2.

This firing of AV is taking a way longer than I thought it would. its been a week

seriously I thought they would have gassed him by now if they wanted to. I wonder if gillis is trying to convince Aquilini for one more year. ....

yah could be ... if they wanna play defense why not keep the defensive coach ... botchford and gallagher have essentially the same story (they might be the same guy) today about eveything being stale about the team and that the sedins being in Vigneaults corner is hurting the franchise



that being said ...


watch for the Friday May 17, 4:30 pacific time before a long weekend press release

when I worked in corporations that time on Friday was always known as Pizza Firing Time..

the companies always seemed to release people at 4 on that day and then take out the survivors for pizza and beer....

Dun dun dunnnnnnnn

his contract up then?

Gillis is going groveling to Aquilini to write 2 buyout cheques (and maybe they cant buyout Booth if hes still considered injured during the buyout window)

Vigneault is signed to a couple more years (me thinks)

and then they will go out and sign a new coach to a multi year deal?

idk

they need to sell tickets and they go out and get Tippett? keep Vigneault??? play a defensive style???

theyre in a bad spot

 

[mattola]

i think AV has one more year on his contract wasnt LAST year the first of his 2 yr extension. why dont I google

 

[mattola]

May 2012 - Alain Vigneault signed a two-year contract extension with the Canucks


so yes 2 years left

i will take this as good news since they were saying this morning Kurt Overhardt was in line to become Tanevs agent (he got Ryans Kesler that offer sheet from Philli when he was rfa)

i would give Tanev and extra $500K just for not using an agent....

 

[jstewismybastardson]

maybe during negotiations Papa Tanev gives the canucks the old ... "you know ... I have another son named Brandon who is a college free agent and would one day love to play with his bro"

is his brother any good?

 

[jstewismybastardson]

is his brother any good?

hes a forward

he played for the surrey eagles a couple years back ... he was 5foot9

he played as a freshman for Providence College ... he's now 6 feet

same late growth spurt as Chris

 

[jstewismybastardson]

if #fireav happens today (or in the next couple days) ... Eakins might be the direction the canucks go


Darren Dreger ‏@DarrenDreger 40m Going through old notes. Marlies coach Dallas Eakins is free to consider any NHL coaching gigs. Window opened last night with Marlies loss.
