I'm sure we'd absolutely crush the 2007 playoffs!

Post that on the nucks facebook page, you'll probably be one of the top comments a midst the "trade the sundins" posts.

If Benning doesn't go off on ufa goalies, there is money for a ufa like Moulson or might be able to capitalize on a cap dump from another team...

If we get similar production out of Bonino to the numbers Kesler put up, then we are still lacking that 2nd line finisher that we have lacked since Samuelsson left...

If we can get a proven 20+ goal scorer for the 2nd line, we will be at least a wild card team again next year. If Benning is done on the trade front, we may be in the hunt for CMD.

No to Moulson. He will want a long term NTC.

I'd rather see an UFA like Moulson signed for 3 years than Miller for the same....

But if Moulson wants more term then it is a moot point.

Iginla for 2 or 3 years would be awesome.

I'm still hoping that Benning takes a run at Winnik.

Winnik-Richardson-Dorsett would be a HUGE improvement for our 4th Line.

Speaking of which, where is the old bastard. I though his ban was over. I need his take on singing Miller and Iggy to play with the Sedins.

He's all for it, because our unproductive old guys need older players to make them productive.

Ferraro on TSN Radio "really surprised/impressed that Vancouver came out of the gate swinging"

Ferraro "it signals a direction that the old regime didn't want to go down & I think that's positive. They were stuck in middle ground"

Ferraro "if you're going to sign R.Miller for 3 years $16 why not approach Cam Ward because contract is less and shorter?"

Ferraro "there are going to be plenty of guys on the goalie market that will be available and adequate"

Jamie McLennan on TSN Radio "no starter in the league should be playing 20 games in a row let alone Eddie Lack"

Ferraro "I would look even a step less than Hiller if I was Van. I would look at Reimer or Chad Johnson"

Ferraro "maybe you hit a home run with Reimer or Johnson if you're Vancouver. Maybe take a shot at Craig Anderson who has 1 year left"

That is a great point! I would way rather Ward over Miller, I think it would be better for Lack`s development.

If Jagr was available for a 1 year deal, I'd say go for it.

We just need some scoring for the 2nd line.

Looking at capgeek for the Canucks... is Matthias really only a year away from ufa?



Top 6:Sedins, Bonino, Jensen,

inbetween: Kassian, Burrows?

Bottom 6: Higgins, Hansen, Richardson, Vey, Matthias, Dorsett, Sestito,

Ferraro "I look at when you get to free agency, the common thing I've heard the past few days is teams have cap room they have to spend it"

Ferraro "you don't have to spend the money because you have it."

Would prefer Hiller.
- VanHockeyGuy


To say you'd rather have Hiller over Miller... I think that's pretty bold. Miller has been an amazing goalie over his career. Yes, he's had a few bumps here and there, but he stood on his head for Buffalo. For some reason he didn't do well with the depth of the Blues defense. However, I do think Hiller is a better fit, considering Eddie Lack did so well last year, UNTIL he took over the starting role. As Luongo's back up he had solid statistics, but then once Luo was dealt, he started too many games in a row and it definitely showed. I think having Hiller would be a better choice for salary cap reasons and it would give Lack a few more games to regain his confidence. I'm very excited with either of Hiller or Miller and I am liking the steps that Linden and Benning are taking to retool Gillis' chaos.

Not many people may agree with this, but I would love for Ferraro to be brought in as an assistant GM or head scout for the Canucks. He knows what he is talking about and not afraid to say it

I love the guy, tonnes of years in and around the league, tells it like he sees it, right or wrong.
