heard he couldnt play either? lolTopper wrote:Can Vandermeer play the right side?
Unless Bieksa can play this Saturday, the Canucks definitely need help on the blueline. Not saying that Vandermeer is the saviour but I don't think he could be any worse than Alberts.rats19 wrote:heard he couldnt play either? lolTopper wrote:Can Vandermeer play the right side?

Another bold move by Holmgren.

#Canucks have put fourth-line winger Aaron Volpatti on waivers. Could be another roster move coming.
Yeah that's the way they generally like to spin it.Hockey Widow wrote:They apparently want Volpatti to get more playing time. If Ebbett gets recalled to replace Kesler we have enough bodies up front. Sounds lie it is a situation where they don't want him sitting in the press box any longer.

Yeah, if the ice time thing was a legit concern you'd think they'd try and get Barker on a men's league team or something!Strangelove wrote: Nah, something is up.....
I'm not saying it's pertinent to this situation, but since there are no more recall waivers it is much more feasible to use your farm team for depth even if your first call up might require waivers.Strangelove wrote:Since when do we ever run with 12 forwards?
The compensation will be a 1st and a 3rd round picks. I just can't see how the Avs not matching.Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
Breaking: Told thhe Flames have filed an offer sheet on Ryan O'Reilly. #TSN
Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger
O'Reilly details more clearly: 2 yrs .. 5M AAV ... 1m salary this year and 2.5 SB ... 6.5M salary next year.
$5m for a RFA that has yet to score 20g a season. The Sedins and Kesler are cheap UFAs afterall.Brick Tamland wrote:Holy balls 5mil AAV!!! For only 2 years. On his body of work. That is crazy talk.
