What would the Canucks do?

[The Q stache]

If a team puts in a sizeable offer sheet on Schnieder? I'm hoping thats what the Hawks do/ trade Crawford.

 

[The Q stache]

Just to be clear this isnt cause I hate the Canucks, which I do, but because I want Schneider.

It would be fun to watch, that's for sure...

It would be a twofer I'd have a chance to upgrade the goalie position and I'd get to see Vancouver squirm.

how does this work rfa stuff confuses me with the arbitration and whatnot?

Thats what I thought once...

There are some teams out there that definitely could use an upgrade at the goaltending position. I'd hate to see Kipper go, but Irving looked pretty good last year. I think it's time to make a move, Jay.

I had read somewhere that there was a 15 day window where he could be offer sheeted before the Canucks have a chance to qualify him (similar window where we offer sheeted Backes). But then somewhere else I read that we can close that window by exercising our arbitration rights.

in summary

You can have Niemi back if you ask real nice...

only if you take Crawford back and pay the higher cap hit.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

i get a sense that the whole process is a moot point and that Crampy will be signed to a long term contract before July 1 ... the order of everything else shaking down (ie moving Luongo) will be interesting

That's not nice at all.

i thought you qualified your players, then people had a chance to offer-sheet.. if you dont qualify them, they're UFA

is that not correct?

no. once you make the qualifying offer, then no one can offer sheet the player.

i just read its
qualify your rfa players ... player can reject and become rfa eligible for offer sheets starting on July 1st extending for 5 days ...depending on arb rights, team can file arbitration paperwork in a 24 hour period (july 5 to 6) and cant walk away from the resulting ruling

alright i was sorta right.. guy has to reject the qualifying offer for RFA to kick in, didnt know that part

aren't qualifying offers just a modest raise on their last salary though? which would lead to a lot of 'rejected' qualifying offers
