TSN1040 said Canucks have third priority for Pulkkinen after the Leafs and Oilers. He doesn't excite me though. Small skilled forward.

Pick up Mark McNeill, let Burrows/Etem go?

Teemu Pukkanen on waivers
- VANTEL

He would be a solid pickup.
Parenteau would look pretty good here too.

Both only make $1.25 mil.

Toronto probably grabs one of them, but we should have a shot at the other...

Grab one of them and dump Etem and Dorsett.

Edit... As Lefty pointed out, we're third in line.... I thought the Oilers had made a claim already for some reason.
There are some quality guys staring to hit the wire anyways.

Nope. I will pass.

Yep.

Stetcher to Utica

I can't see the Oilers claiming

Agreed. they are pretty stacked with skilled forwards. Although Puljaarvi hasn't looked quite NHL ready, maybe they grab Parenteau and send Puljaarvi to the AHL for a year...

The sky is falling.

Stetcher to Utica
- Vanoxy

JV will be next I assume.

Feck, there's more action today than the trade deadline

So this means Canucks can't pick up a waiver . Even now if they send JV And Tryamkin down and release Skille and Ruutu they are at 23 man roster.

Writing on the wall for all four remaining hopefuls.

Has to be.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone, especially Carol!!!!


Mrs. Marwood and I are going to the Quinsam River outside of Campbell River to watch black bears feast on spawning salmon.

Etem is gone, no way they keep that plug.

Etem hasn't shown me that he is an NHL player.
And, with better options on the wire, he'd likely make it through.
I'd waive him and grab one of the more skilled guys, personally.

I think they will.

The most intriguing question still to remain is whether or not Tom Nilsson makes the roster. After all he is the only Canucks' defenceman who had an error free pre Season.

He had to be waived today for that to happen

He made the roster. He would have had to be placed on waivers

The Canucks' could also still have a trade or two in the works that could change things before 2 PM PST tomorrow.

I don't think you are correct on your assessment . Why would they not release Ruutu and skille and send everyone down to Utica at the same time as Stecher and Bachman?
