Bozak = Gagner
- VANTEL

better on face-offs, less offence (got carried by much better players)
Bozak would be a huge mistake

Goldobin Bo Brock
Dahlen ROR Pettersson
Sven Gaudette Jake
Leipsic Winnik Roussel

Eriksson Gaunce

Edler Gudbrandson
Hafanin Tanev
Manning Stecher

Pouliot Biega

Markstrom
Demko
- VANTEL

It's not an awful team, would need goalies to play much better

dropping lineups now!
i like off season Vantel.

So we traded ROR for Tanev and Granlund
and Hanafin for Gagner, Hutton, and Oj or was it the 7thOA?

They killed it at the world championship a couple of years before. It was probably the last time the Sedins were vintage Sedins.

But Ericsson has been so bad here that all you can do is laugh and shake your head. At least Edmonton got one good season out of Lucic. We haven’t gotten one good week out of Ericsson.
- CubanBuffet

ya he hasnt been what we expected for sure.

Again, several serious concussions are likely the reason why. it's killed many careers. Lindros one of the more prominent ones. Each and every one after killed his play more and more.
we've seen him concussed in a canuck uniform even. Time for him to either take extended time off to recover properly or retire and save his noggin. Insurance will cover the cash he loses anyways. I'd love to see him produce again here but honestly is it worth the risk to his brain? no

There's the whole off-season to address that. Just get a stop-gap this summer. There's still so many holes in the team it's not even funny.
- LeftCoaster

not usually any movement during playoffs. WE'll see some during draft time and Free agency is just around the corner.
Usually before that JB signs some college guys as well. Good idea to do it before free agency opens up.....not that that will fill the 2C but can shape your UFA plans for sure

lets hope gaudette is ready and better than expected.

This is what happens when teams buy into how players look at the world championships

I think that was a few year previous though wasn't it?

Why is everyone so high on ROR? The guy isn’t the leader everyone thinks he is. He has great skills and he is a centre but he isn’t not a guy I sell the farm for.

It is not a love affair with ROR , insert any name that would be an upgrade. His name so far is the only one being thrown around as being available.

They either have to trade from a position of weakness, over pay for free agents or let the young guys sink or swim. I think management genuinely thought the Sedins would be back, and they don’t have a contingency plan.

I’m not going to lie, I try to give management the benifit of the doubt, but Benning with a crap load of cap space kind of terrifies me.
- CubanBuffet

Agreed.

The trade request should be made public soon.

Top 10pick though?

We're not Edmonton level bad at at management, close to Calgary, but give us some credit.

Does anything Benning do surprise anymore ?

and what do you mean by us ....which one are you? Lol

I think that was a few year previous though wasn't it?
- SMBDragon

They saw them playing good on a line and everyone in here creamed to get LE for the twins ....there was lots of chatter prior to his signing

Nilsson!!!!

Not me and definitely not 6 years. There is no way I wanted the Canucks to give the twins a reason to stay longer

Grabs his ball and goes home

No I don’t think anyone saw the 6 years ...but yeah I believe you were very anti keeping the twins here longer

- VANTEL

He hadn’t done anything outrageous bad but he can’t make a move that everyone looks at and just accepts ...there’s always questions

Sutter and guddy trades
Hamhuis non deal
Reaching for OJ and taking jv
Signing LE

This is just off the top of my head for scenarios that were looked at as questionable moves at the time
