Im pretty sure that Smyth isnt a Burrows comparable....hes an albatross...great trade by the Oil ( in perfect 20-20 hindsite)
Pyatt is also making 1.5 mill with 14 points this year...also a UFA at the end of the year I think

Burrows will probably end up at 2.0-2.5 per on a 3 year deal...that makes the most sense for him and the team.
Other comparisons either points wise or salary wise proving this out both off and on the Nucks roster.

The State may, but the City of New York is 8.2 Million I believe.
This says 8.3+, and it comes from their city planning site... I think this can be taken as accurate

No wonder the Yankees have so much money. Everytime someone buys something with a Yankees logo on it they cash in. anyway back on topic. Jagr is crazy for going to Europe to play. He would look good in a Canucks uni and has proven himself in the playoffs. as for a trade I have my doubts on Kovalev, He's good but doesn't always show up. thats been his biggest knock his whole career. get Jay Bo from Florida (last name is way to long for me to spell it correct
) I always trade for him in EA's NHL hockey games

I can't see Florida giving up Bouwmeester based on the fact they're in the playoffs right now, 5th place in the East I think. Why would they give him up unless they were getting someone proven in return? Whoever said John Michael-Liles is smart. Colorado sucks, but it might be hard to pry away from a division rival. Would love to see Jagr in a Nuck's uni, they'd have to sign him to the maximum cap room so that no team could afford to claim him when he comes through waivers.

jagr is a bad idea. another ageing former scorer. so far we are batting 500 with this premise. one just starting to work out, the other, an epic fail. i'm not convinced jagr could work well in the west conf. forget gabby coming to van, no way in hell minny is going to give him up to a division rival. i like the idea of j-m lyles. he's not a superstar or at the calibre of jay-bo, but steady, fast, and he can move the puck well. i also believe he would be cheaper to get, but i don't have the numbers. 10 minutes to game time. is it on ppv tonight?

He is cheaper the J-Bo, but Colorado are trying to dump Smyth right now, so I'm not sure if they'd be willing to part with him. Games on Sportsnet I believe.

Latest Rumor has it the canucks might go after kovalchuk and 2nd round pick in next years draft, giving up ohlund, raymond and 1st round pick in next years draft

i lay odd's that it would take a lot more than that to get kovalchuk out of atlanta. could he servive in the west? 3-0 canucks after 1. bryan murrey on with larshied. can't understand him one bit.

Agree, getting a Jon Michael-Liles for Raymond would be a good deal. Could fit in well with the Avalance system, since he's a prospect we probably wouldn't have to add too much to sweeten the deal. Then we could move another D for some top 6 help.

Bouwmeester has stated that he wants to go home to Edmonton (eventually).
Kovalev would be a waste of money. Lots of talent but no desire.

We've got a crapload of utility players and have some average prospects that are cheap and could be moved to a team that is rebuiding and/or wants to drop some salary. These guys also need to be moved to make room for Hodson and perhaps even Grabner next year.
I can't see them going for any top 6 forwards since they seem content with the top two lines they have and they aren't going to mess with their current chemistry. Getting another scorer for the third line is pointless.
Look for the addition of some depth on defence considering the fragility of Ohlund and Salo. Moreover...neither will likely be here next year.

smart man....expect nothing big from the Nucks, especially considering their current winning ways. Gillis will be afraid to mess with the team too much.

the three guys I'm not to impressed with are Pyatt, Bernier and Raymond. all three are brutal. as for the back line all seven are pretty good. not great but good. adding a puck moving D-man would be good. I think they should call up Grabner and have him play on the third line with Wellwood and Bernier.

Get rid of Raymond - way too weak. We need more physical play in the 3rd and 4th lines.
Keith Tkachuk a decent rental player for a playoff run? Would only need about $905k in salary cap room.

Keith Tkachuk is not a good playoff player. he's brutal in fact. played on so many lossing teams in the playoffs. Neil Thompson on the Team 1040 said he's not a very good leader at all. and not the best teammate. not a good idea. maybe in 1997. but he's waaaaaaay past his prime.
