Vancouver Canucks Messageboard

Boston won the Cup thanks to overspending on Chara, the Ducks won their Cup in part by spending $$$ on Niedermayer. Don't be afraid to spend big bucks on Norris caliber dmen, it's quite fucking simple really. That's how I am coming around too. What i am thinking is: Blow the wad on Karlsson, re-sig...

very good point actually. The more I think about it, the more I think we just throw the chequebook at Karlsson and say sign and you write how much. Good point, how often do we have a chance to sign a Norris Trophy winner.

If that signs, sign Myers for a decent amount.

Whats Dickskin Wart doing on that list lol

riding the coattails of a strong line up?

Agree. Myers and...... which other D are available as UFA this summer?

I am actually 'okay' with the forwards we would be bringing back next year. Yes, there are some I would like to see gone, Sutter, Spooner, Erikson but I think their replacements would come back in trades. What I would like is to see Benning, or whoever our GM is, spend most of the cap space on bring...

Just wanted to say Congrats! to Pettersson. Hopefully he can go on a hot streak and catch Bure's goal record.

Don't care that much if we win or lose, just get a hat-trick for Pettersson.

Eriksson is untradeable. Almost all of the dozens/hundreds of players this has been said about over the decades... got traded. Hell, someone here said that about Guddy the Penguin. It's poppycock... Once we pay that stupid July 1st bonus for the bump he is very tradeable. Won't he be $2 mil in real...

Shouldhave been a 3 goal lead this time.

Official excuse will be: he accidentally threw his stick.

Fine if one ref missed it but there is one other ref and two linesmen. They didn’t even huddle up to talk about it.

That was shocking.

The NHL is the worlds biggest bush league even worse than the CFL.

He threw his fucking stick

Did you see the ref's expression when talking to Green? It was pretty much, 'I don't know. '

Okay. I can see how the officials miss that but how does Toronto?

Hope Pettersson record breaking point is a goal.

1 good thing that has come out of his foot injury, which doesn't look to be too severe, is that it gives all parties an excuse to keep him in the press for for a few games. That alone should help him see what parts of his game that he needs to adapt to be successful at the NHL. Also will give him mo...
