Who?
Burrows in unmovable
Higgins is hurt
Vey is young enough that they won't cut bait just yet

Who is it you have in mind?

Vey will pass through waivers.

Vey(Hansen is flat out better)
Prust(I like him against physical teams, but I'll take Hansen over him)
Burrows(I'd waive him before trading Hansen for a 3rd)
Sutter(Mainly because of the contract)
Higgins(Hansen is a younger/faster Higgins basically)

Biega
- A_SteamingLombardi

I've liked Biega, but yeah he's a safe bet to clear waivers and not a long-term piece.

Vey will pass through waivers.
- Marwood

No way.

23 yr old 15 goal scorer? No chance

15 goals?

Vey will pass through waivers.
- Marwood

I think he should

but i think some other team will pick him up.... but i think they'll end up being as equally disappointed.

He's just not good enough. great skill, but lacks any kind of engine, strength or speed.

15 goals?

Typo. Sorry 10 goals

You'd rather eat 3.6 mill per of burrows then trade Hansen? You have to be trolling. (frank) contract aside burrows is a better player and its not close

My issue with Virtanen is consistency.
- Bieksa#3

He stil has a lot of learning to do. I would love to see him up but me thinks he may be sent down.

They need a spot on the NHL roster this year to pick him up. The team that picks him up can't send him down this year

I bet about 4 teams would try and pick him up.

He wouldn't be the first 23 year old 10 goal scorer to end up in the AHL/Europe for most of his career. Especially considering that he isn't great defensively and gets pushed around.

Alright, well the other ones stand.

Vantel had Vey's back last season but with the emergence of much better youth coming up I doubt he will be crying at his loss. I think he will get a lot better but others are just playing to well.

Hows his movie career I wonder?

This. Every team thinks they can fix players like Vey

I would choose Vey over Higgins still

He still has some upside, but the odds are that he ends up as a tweener at this point. It wouldn't be the end of the world if they gave him a few regular season games before deciding if he's worth keeping but if it means not giving McCann a regular season look then I'm against it.

- VANTEL

I choose none of the above

- Bieksa#3

He is worth fixing. I bet a team like Detroit or St Louis would do quite well with him. He would be a fit on both team.

I don't really care what happens or who is in the line-up. I just want to start watching hockey again. Young guys old guys, who cares, let's drop the puck.

Vey won't be a bad hockey player given more time. I really don't want to lose him but the current environment dictates otherwise.
