He is one of the best AHL goalies and the kid Is huge. He is worth a second for a team that is desperate for goaltending. I would package him with Highins

Boston may want him also. They need a back up and Subban is a bigger risk

At this point I expect Lack to go.

Looking back further Reto Berra got a 2nd from Col in 2013 maybe there is a chance.

That is suicide. Lack is the goalie for the next 5 years. Why keep an older very expensive guy with the same numbers. Lack proved he is ready for number 1

if only we still had Kesler, Miller would have requested a trade already.

Because you signed him to an 18 million 3 year deal and nobody else will take him.

I am still intrigued by Millers parting comments at the end of last year, " thanks Vancouver for everything"

Then you keep both

Ward has some grit so I don't care one way or the other. Trade Vrbata
- VANTEL

At this point I would have to agree especially after seeing Vrbata completely neutralized in the PO's. It would suck to lose Vrbata's seasonal goal production but if it means a first rounder get 'er done.

Ward had about 25 so it is not a huge drop off

Sorry 19 my bad

Vrbata not worth a first

One thing I really like about Lack is he loves Vancouver and Vancouver loves him. He can be a bit of a goof but the kid in him will go away after a year or two of playing in the number one spot. This year he started protecting his space. A few times I seen him punching opponents or giving them the business with his stick. Unlike a few goalies here in the past who would just take the crap or flop like they were hit by a train, this guy will protect his space.

Hell , once he even skated to centre ice ready to brawl. Once he gets serious and it is a business and not a game , that smile will go and he will be meaner.

Vrbata not worth a first

Ward would be a lock for 25+ with the Sedins and probably more effective in the playoffs than Vrby.

I'm not suggesting it, but that's what I'm predicting.


I was ready to roll with Lack/Markstrom last year. Hated the Miller deal since day one.

Vrbata is ok, just ok.

not worth a 1st.

I hope he stays, but I wouldn't be surprised if he gets traded for a 2nd. Ditto with Kassian.

Kassian I can see being traded because of the history . Lack like I said would need to be a huge deal.
