as much as we all enjoy you're 'flagged' comments, i'd rather toss around the (largely unrealistic) ideas of bringing in various hockey players and imagining how they would fit with our team and within the payroll...because this is a rumour site after all

the more thought I give it (considering I am a very successful NHL GM and all) the more I think it would be a disastrous signing. He certainly doesn't seem like the type of guy that would take a hometown (or any kind of) discount. lucic would phuck up the chi in the room, and his skills are clearly declining, some would argue at an alarmingly fast rate.

Keeping going with the youth movement will be more popular with the fan base, and even Willie seems to be coming along in regards to playing the youths.

Lucic is an bumhole, a slow, selfish bumhole whose best days are behind him.

I was on board for acquiring Milan Lucic too. Although he has disappointed thus far, it's been a couple games and the whole Kings team has looked out of sorts from Goalie to D to forwards...there is a lot of talent on that team, and a lot of sucking.

let's revisit this debate next off-season.

JB was chasing Luc before he knew what he had in his own barn. The team is less desperate nowadays

I'm giving him the season before i decide if his skill are clearly declining, but so far, i'd say you are correct.

The only team I see throwing stupid money at him is the Leafs and Oilers

Vrbata is leading the LEAGUE in shots so far. Tanev in blocked shots.

What defense in this game. That Beltre play down the 3rd base line considering Reveres speed was about as good as it gets

They'll be plenty of interest. Toronto won't be in on him

It's a different game come playoffs. Canucks still lack toughness in their top 6.... unless you want to move Prust or Dorsett up there.... which ain't going to happen!

i'd still like to see lucic on the nucks just to add that toughness/size for the post season... couldn't care less what he does in the regular season!

Solid point. I'm sure some here won't agree but I see that as a valid point.

He would snuffed out Ferland last spring.


I love getting presidents trophys and our teams have been great in the regular season... but we've definitely missed that size and nastiness come spring time. Lucic would help.

that being said i would have a tough time paying him more than what he's currently making.. if he's looking for a big raise forget it!
