Huckleberry Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 We'd be lucky to get campbell at this point. Quote
Thorner Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 Goligoski, gone. Yandle was reported yesterday that Florida will off him a 6 year, hefty deal. So he could be gone. Barrie isn't going anywhere. We need to hit on Shattenkirk or Fowler, or we're ######. Thankfully, if we actually do get Vessey, we have some expendable forwards we can trade Looks like we are definitely going to have to swing a trade for a Dman. Probably 2 if we get Shattenkirk as we would still need that LHD, Perfectly reasonable deal. I'm jealous. Seriously, the Guhle hype is starting to get to me. If Brendan Guhle is in our top-4 within the next two seasons, we're not going to be a good hockey team. Very jealous. Goligoski and Yandle were really good options and I was worried we might miss out on both. Looks like that will happen, relying on FA is so tough. I have confidence Murray will do his thing though, on the trade market. (Yes, I've changed my views and become hopeful on this matter :p) Quote
kas23 Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 I think if GMTM really wanted either of them, he very well could've sent their teams a 5th rounder. But, he didn't. He must have other plans. Quote

Agree. I have no doubts teams seek out the best deal which means our GM knew these rights could be traded for. Quote

Hoss Posted June 22, 2016 Author Report Posted June 22, 2016 LeBrun: Milan Lucic via text message says he's headed to UFA market. No deal with Kings. Huge, huge name headed to July 1. Now I suppose Kings still have time to make another new offer but that's how Lucic sees it at this juncture Quote
Norcal Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 Lucic to Vancouver (e4)Thats been the word since april innit? Quote
beerme1 Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 I hope the pig Lucic does go to Van. It would lessen the chance of Kane heading there. Quote

K-9 Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 Would love it if he ended up in Buffalo I want to get on the Yandle train, I really do. But I was totally unimpressed with him as a Ranger last season. I readily admit, I don't have the sharpest eval skills when it comes to hockey players so help me out; what am I missing on this guy? GO SABRES!!! Quote

The trick with Yandle is to close your eyes when the other team has the puck in his zone :p I'm only half joking with that. He's below average in his own zone without the puck, but he's flat-out great at generating offense whether it's with an outlet pass, rushing the puck, or running the PP. His offense is more than enough to offset his defensive deficiencies, but if you're looking for reasons to hate him, he'll give you one every game :lol: Quote

TrueBlueGED Posted June 22, 2016 Report Posted June 22, 2016 How soon before we have a Yandle Bunker? I'd imagine most people with an old school view of defensemen will have one by the end of his first preseason game :lol: Quote

I don't need reasons to hate him, I need reasons to like him. I'd like an offensive QB, too, but not at the expense of playing good defense. GO SABRES!!! Quote

If you need all of your defensemen to play well defensively, you may as well build the bunker when (if) he signs. Quote

I'm ordering the specs for my bunker design as I type this. In my book, a D man really isn't a D man if he can't play defense. I don't care how pretty he is on offense. GO SABRES!!! Quote

Huckleberry Posted June 23, 2016 Report Posted June 23, 2016 I think Yandle and Bogo would make a good combo. Quote
Eleven Posted June 23, 2016 Report Posted June 23, 2016 I think Yandle and Bogo would make a good combo. Oh no. I love you, my Belgie buddy, but no. Hey--check my question in the soccer thread. Quote

Nah, I don't think any of the Bogo-ites have nukes. I think Yandle and Bogo would make a good combo. That pairing would be positively terrifying. For us. When the other team has the puck. Quote
TrueBlueGED Posted June 23, 2016 Report Posted June 23, 2016 Darren Dreger @DarrenDreger 3m3 minutes ago As we discussed on Sportscentre...and really no surprise, consider Lucic and Eriksson high priority for Canucks. They want at least 1 of 2. Good move, if there's one thing the Canucks need, it's more veterans past their prime. :unsure: Quote
