It is no longer 'the package' but now...'the bundle'...

I've proposed on this site we sell everything like we're going out of business if we are on the fringe of the playoffs at the TDL... otherwise we push forward

Burrows - 1st + conditional 2nd if the team makes it to the finals
Hamhuis - 1st + top d prospect + conditional 1st if team he goes to makes the conference finals + conditional 1st if the team wins the cup
Vrbata - 1st + conditional 1st if the team he goes to makes the finals
Weber - 2nd + conditional 2nd if the team he goes to makes the semi finals
Edler - if we can get him to waive - 2 firsts + top d prospect + conditional 1st if the team he goes to makes the finals
Prust - d prospect + conditional pick
Dorsett - d prospect + conditional pick
Higgins - d prospect + conditional pick
Sbisa - prospect + conditional pick
Vey - 2nd
Bartkowski - top d prospect + conditional pick

update:
forgot Tanev
Tanev - 1st + top d prospect + conditional 1st if team goes to semi finals + 1st if team goes to finals

Wow. If we have so many players worth so many high picks we might as well just keep them and win the Cup.

Massively under-valuing Canuck assets....



Ps - I thought I saw fosco in one of Ek's threads....

I think so. When I was in Penticton this weekend we looked into getting some tickets. Lots of tickets left for Canucks games, but all of Edmonton's games are sold out.

No need. Benning will find another Stamkos with the 15th pick. If not then it will be with the 45th, 75th, or 105th pick.
- bloatedmosquito

How many Stanley Cups does Stamkos have? Oh ya...none. But, Conn Smythe winner Brad Richards, third round pick, has two.

In fact, do you know how many 1st overall picks have won a Cup in the past thirty years? Six guys in 30 years. Get off your whine wagon. It's about the sum of the whole....not a singular part.

Joe Murphy 1986 - 1990 Oilers Cup
Mike Modano 1988 - 1999 Dallas Cup
Vinny Lecavalier 1998 - 2004 Tampa Cup
M. A. Fleury 2003 - 2009 Pittsburgh Cup
Cindy Crosby 2005 - 2009 Pittsburgh Cup
Patrick Kane 2007 - multiple Chicago Cups 2010, 2013 & 2015

I was like ten tastings deep at that point, so take it with a grain of salt but I'm pretty positive that's the case. There's lots of retired Albertans in that area.

And while the Canucks are starting to fill their young stars roster with some intriguing prospects, the Oilers team is going to be ridiculous this year. McDavid, Nurse, Draisaitl. It'll be awhile before a team that good rolls through Penticton again.

Have you ever tried Marichel? Probably my favourite winery in the area.

If you can find it or are in the area give them a go. They're one of the little guys that you want to support. It doesn't hurt that they are good at what they do.


Edit: also, definitely what you want to hear from an engineer.

Vintage Spirits in the Rialto Hotel is the only retailer on the Island to get it. Or at least, that was the deal they originally made, maybe things have changed. Some pretty tasty Syrah.

They have an all Syrah Rose that is super dry and really weird. In a good way. And their Estate Syrah is the best in the valley.

I thought Albertans retired in Red Deer.
