Sundin was pushing 38 when he joined the Canucks (though still put up a point-per-playoff-game)RoyalDude wrote: You not worried about his age, Doc? Ya know, old man disease??? Sort of like the 3rd installment of a 'falling star phoning it in to cash in on his name and past glory with the Canucks as being the suckers, Sundin and Messier????
.... plus don't forget his mentoring of Kesler.
Messier was a party animal (they tend to go into earlier decline).
Solid character Sundin never "phoned it in". Mess yes. Doan has character in spades..
The 2nd/3rd year(s) of a 3 year contract might not bring great value but I want a Cup in 2013.
Horse race: Phoenix first, LA second, both no doubt ahead of your Vancouver Canucks right now.
But don’t underestimate our nearness to Kamloops and Canucks Christian Culture Clubhouse.
I say get christian cousin Ellerby as part of the package for Lou and Shane choo choo chooses us!
