That reminds me, I know lots of the guys on here are from the island/northern BC. Just wondering how the cost of living is out there/work opportunities? I'm looking to gtfo out of the city. Too many kaptaans around

Let's face it, pretty much anywhere you go, you are going to have to deal with a "Kaptaan"

As you noted, there are quite a few people on this board from the Island and even Northern B.C, so I'm sure you'd be able to get some further insight in terms of cost of living and work opportunities. Of course, you could always just become David Booth's moose caddy

So Your saying Heatly is available.

That entire page on LWers is hilarious. It might have been better served had they simply said "N/A"

Google vice donkey episode.

This world is a messed up place.

Careful there might be children present.

Just in case anyone was wondering who is still available:

Vice is a good show but this one deviated from the standard subject manner just a bit.

its not exactly a complete list though. I would think Penner (LW) at the right deal ( as in 2.5 AAV over 2 year) could be interesting.

Today was a bust... still need at least 1 legitimate top 6 guy. Vrbata looks to be the guy, and hopefully they make a trade as well. They seem to be looking at a re-tool with signing Miller. Don' love the signing, but there was a lot worse today, decent term, $ too high

Sedin Sedin Jensen
Shink Bonino Kassian
Burrows Vey Matthias
Higgins Richardsen Drosett/Sestito

Bieksa Hamhuis
Edler Sbisa
Corrado Stanton

Miller
Lack

I think Tanev, Hansen and Markstrom are out and could give us some return.

Sounds like Tanev isn't happy. Markstorm could even make the farm through waivers. Hansen could be moved for dirt to Winnepeg.

I think you are seriously undervaluing what Hansen brings

Verbata is apparently seeking 4.5m per for 3-4 years. If we can work that down a bit (both term and $) I'd be ok with that signing.

If that's the framework then I'd be for that.

If by "a bit" you mean a $1.5 mill per on a 1yr deal, then yeah!

Let the kids play.

The remaining free agents are garbage. I'd rather just give one of the young guys a chance than bring in any of the remaining clowns

Canucks have 11 mil in space with 19 players I imaging Vey and Weber have been offered around 1 mil and Kassian around 3.5. If Tanev has been offered 3 that would leave 3 mil for a player. If he wants more he will have a new address

Yea, if we're going after a top 6 player at this point then let it be through trade. We missed our chance on an actual impact player. I don't see how playing Radim Vrbata on the second line helps us in the now or the future more than playing Jensen
Edit:
I would have been cool with an Iggy, Stastny, or even Moulson signing if they wanted to improve the top 6 via FA. After that the players just aren't worth the money or the risk. With all that's left now I would be most comfortable with just signing Santorelli for 2 years
