It was funny , two years ago when we were trading Kesler the names thrown around were Etem and a first , Pulliot Sutter and a first. We just need Pulliot.


Benning has done a very good job making us younger.

Hamhuis for Pulliot, let's get the rumour going.

If you are cleaning house does it matter if Bachman or Canata play back up for three months?

I dont know if Puliot is the next cleddening but that is type of trade that we need to start making on defense if we want to speed up the rebuild which only happens if you get lucky and a couple of deals of this variety turn out in a positive way

One more season @ 3.3 I think... If he keeps goin the way he Is it'd gonna cost them a nice size contact... Also tanner Pearson.. I mean they could probably squeeze lucic in but it's gonna be real tough with the young guys they got needing to be paid soon

No....but JB won't move Miller and not grab a backup. I'd be fine with it...no matter what happens it would help the pumpkin

Be pretty crazy if a 7th rounder and a 5th Neill turn in to NHL regulars from the same draft class

Maybe, and if that's the case then it still makes him look bad that he's not even willing to play even just to showcase himself so that some team is willing to pay whatever TB wants for him. Just not quite as bad, but I highly doubt this is the case, my guess is that SY and JC are more worried about Stamkos and either getting him signed long-term or trade him for as many assets as they can manage since they'd instantly be in a rebuild situation.
- DariusKnight


Keep in mind he has been showcasing himself since october/november which is when he asked to be traded. His agent said and yzerman confirmed that they just didnt want to release it to the media after nothing happened they went public. They took their two weeks in the ahl and still nothing. So the hold out is now happening. I really think something goofy happened but even if not he did give them months to make a deal.

2 mil Canucks can keep 3 mil it doesn't matter next year his salary is off the books. The idea is to get a young prospect further along

No sure if that is bad or not . It would depend if he is getting them when they are blowouts or not

No, but you're supposed to be a professional, you are getting paid to play. There are 1000 players waiting for you to fail and take your spot. If you're being manipulated by your agent then you should be firing him and taking him to the bar association to be disbarred. Like I keep saying, you can't tell me that he didn't know what his agent was going to do or that his agent did it behind his back against his wishes. The fact that he's still Drouin's agent despite obviously bad advice that's now essentially killed his career for the moment tells me that either he condones what was done in his name or else is too full of himself and wrapped up in his own little world to care.
- DariusKnight

But there are not 1000 players that are good enough to even take a spot on an AHL roster, Let alone someone with top 3 potential.

I know. It really means Canucks are about to sign Vrbata long term. But do wonder what different teams would offer.
- bazz
