German Canuck Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 His rights cost a 3rd rounder. Very clearly that he will sign in Tampa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Am.Ironman Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 1 hour ago, German Canuck said: No because the only two players we are missing in comparison to the last offseason are Kuzmenko and Cole I don't think last off season is all that relevant because I don't think we have the degree of playoff success taht we had without Lindholm and Zadorov. We now have a big (literally) hole to fill on D. 1 hour ago, Spoosh said: Panthers maybe? That would be a pretty sweet F U to Tampa. If we don't sign him I hope he stays in Florida. 1 hour ago, Blitz-Pix said: Careful what you ask for....Remember "Messier" & "Sundin"? LOL The right fit also matters IMO Sundin actually played well for us in the playoffs, it took him half a season to get into shape though. If Luongo didn't let in 7 softies against Chicago in game 6, we probably go on to win the cup that year. Sundin wasn't the problem and he benefited the Sedins long term. Both he and Naslund scored 2 goals each in game 6 which we lost 7-5 IIRC. I'd happily give stammer the Sundin deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Herberts Vasiljevs Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 3 minutes ago, DeNiro said: Pretty high price to pay if you’re not certain though. You would think he gave them a strong indication he would sign with them. Ehrhoff had his rights traded twice in 2011 and neither team signed him. Also, still waiting for that Tanev 'extension' in Toronto! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iinatcc Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 But Canucks are fumbling here I feel. Leafs, Utah, and now the Bolts have went ahead of the Canucks in securing either a player or their rights 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont get why some people press the panic buttom at this early stage of the upcoming season. Edited June 30 by German Canuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until he signed with us he always seemed to be a PPG+ player. He was great for the Sedins AND Kesler IMO...Kes had high praise for Sundin in helping him take his game to the next level.

Olli Juolevi Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I think the price of Guentzel's rights indicates that they're not that close to signing anything. If TB really thought it was a foregone conclusion that they'd get this contract done, I don't think they would've ponied up a pretty significant asset relative to what rights usually get traded for.

TetrisBloctT Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Remember the the canucks traded a first, third, fourth, and a fifth round pick, with Kuzy who in time i think would be a steal for calgary and some minor players for Zadorov and Lindholm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
