canucks dont have the horses ... gillis is the one taking it right now

but seriously 43 ... you say the cap will be going up but cbj arent historically a perrenial spend to the cap team ... they usually have an internal budget that is below the cap ... that type of money to 2 goalies makes no moneypuck sense at all ... example, it restricted the canucks from getting the 2 top 6 forwards that they needed to remain a cup contender

I know. And if they are talking goalie with Carolina, I would much rather have Peters. Plus, as I said they are probably talking with Anaheim too.

Bottom line is they don't need Gaborik, and they are in horrible shape if Bob gets hurt again. Ward is expensive, but would fill the most glaring need - and if they get Gaborik's salary off the books, it is okay short term. Hurts at the end of next year, but maybe a team will get desperate at the deadline. If Bob wigs out and starts the KHL crap again, Ward is good insurance.

The owner of the team has seen what the building has been like the last few games and is giving JD a bit of a long leash. I think they will spend when it helps improve the team. And D consistency and backup goaltending are the holes right now. The D is shaping up, but McIlhenny is not.. He's just not.

The Jackets are not and will not be a cup contender for a long time. But they are a team that desperately needs to get into the playoffs and go a round or two to make up recent dollar shortfalls. Missing the ASG hurt bad. That can rectify itself next year too.

Getting Ward is not ideal for sure, but I won't be suicidal if it happens.

hell no ... not a one i have seen

More fans calling for Gillis to be removed or to make a move, most are quite happy with the job Torts has done.

Good, I was gonna say, don't think he's done a bad job at all ths far. Him and AV have figured it out it seems like.

Wonder what the potential asking price for Kadri is?

I love that gif. but it's true, he's tweaked his system to benefit a guy like Girardi who has finally gotten back to form.

Don't get your hopes up. DZ has played well over the last few weeks. Think they may move John Moore before they move DZ honestly.

Anyone interested in Ville Leino?

I'd be willing to part with him for cheap. Real cheap. Like "we'll pay you to take him" cheap.

any rumblings on Eh-rror-hoff?

 

[pixburgher66]

Anyone have any wingers they're willing to part with? Willing to part with particular young defensemen.

He's so versatile, he can play center AND wing.

DAVID BOOTH !!!

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

Not that I've heard, but I'm not a good one to ask since the rumblings don't get down to Charlotte too well.

Light up the Boss-signal and hopefully he'll show up and provide some insight.

 

[pixburgher66]

Ville Leino or David Booth. You guys are great salesmen.

Hey get in line.

 

[pixburgher66]

Seems like the goalie market is seller heavy. And that's just a tough position to move at the deadline, unless there are injuries on a contender.

 

[sabresfaninthesouth]

We'll make it a twofer.

All it takes in return is some magic beans.

OK, fine. We'll take some regular beans. Or no beans at all.
