We have the worst fans in Canada, I've said it many times.

I would have thrown my hat, although I don't wear hats that much, but I'm on a fixed income now...I can't afford to waste money like that

Can we stop putting the Sedins in trades? Benning has always been pretty straight up with the media and he said last week that the Sedins will retire canucks.
I think Hamhuis, Vrbata, Prust, and possibly Edler be moved.

So if we do discuss trading the Sedins, I say Hank for McDavid, Klefbolm and 3 1sts and Danny for Karlson, Stone, Z, and 3 1sts. Because my trade is just as plausible as yours

I'd like a team to offer a free hat of the fans choosing if a player scores a hatty.

WTF

We'd better be getting a lot more than that if you're trading the twin powers!!!

5 young players with skill and cap space for two older players and Edler

I probably wouldn't have thrown mine.

But it just shows you how stupid our fan base is if they can't tell the difference between Henrik and Daniel.

You need more established young players if you're trading the twins, but like we've said all along, it ain't ever happening. Stick with Vrbata, Hamhuis, Edler, Prust etc. scenarios.

I will discuss trading the twins as much as I feel like.

Only an idiot GM wouldn't consider moving two aging players for the better of the team. If you don't want to discuss it then ignore the posts.

It happened to Gretzky , linden , Iggy and the list goes on.

Geez all you arses are getting married... I should get in on this... wait... that would require a willing (or at least drunk enough but not too drunk to give informed consent) partner...

Nah, I'll stick to being a bachelor, being a lone wolf is a lot more fun and variety is the spice of life after all.

Just stay single dude. Been there done that with the marriage thing...

I remember edm selling Gretzky when he asked to go to the kings.
And what does linden have to do with this? He is no where near the Sedins level.

And you agree then my trade as just as possible as yours

I'm kidding, I kind of miss him too. Wish it was 2011 again.
- pker2theend

I appreciated what Lou did when he was here but really having Miller here is just like if Lou would have stayed. They are both good for 2 Muffins per game now and a 3-4 goals allowed per game. Check the FLA-NYR hilites last night...a few muffins for Lou...

True I'm just starting crap I won't hang that whole series on Lou. The Bettman/Campell factor after the Rome hit in Gm 3 was the ammo Bettman needed to get things done for Boston.

He had 9 goals and 22 points at TDL. And was only willing to go to one team. So I see what you're saying....

It actual has a lot to do with it. Fans here go nuts when Bieksa is traded and refuse to stop going to games . They do come around again but it does affect sales.

The right thing is to move these aging players for assets. People female dog daily about Hamhuis Vrbata and Edler . All three have overstayed their welcome . It will happen to the twins also.
