GDT: Canucks free agent frenzy

[LickTheEnvelope]

I remember when I used to be so preoccupied with UFA day, and getting mad about us not signing anyone significant (not that we never did or anything). But now I don't really give a **** anymore. I'm more excited about a couple of years down the line when Shinkaruk, Horvat, Gaunce, etc. will make the line-up.

I'd be fine with this if the Canucks were going the rebuild direction.

Don't like keeping the old core forever taking all the roster spots and leaving 4th line spots and 5th/6th d-spots for youth.

We already have a different roster.

exactly we will have a new third center, fourth line center.......our roster is so different especially if you include young players but some fans are blind!

Removing Schneider and Roy from our roster doesn't help us improve.

Any chance we see all 3 horvat, gaunce and hunter make the team next year. Bring the youth movement (just for a few months) and hopefully ONE of them plays amazing and then fill our the roster down the road?

OMG I'm so blind. I totally missed the new 4th line center who we don't have yet, and Schroeder being our 3rd line center. Wow I can't believe I missed that. We're back to Cup contenders now because we have a new 4th line center!

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie now


now that's a good deal. I had weiss at 5.5m

What is sad to me is we think that is a good deal.

50-60 point player with 1st line, 1st unit pp time, and is coming off a significant injury.

This free agent period is making Gillis and his nicely signed contracts look better as he each player signs.

Yeah...we don't have things to trade....


Great day for Detroit adding Alfredson and Weiss.

Where did Roy sign?
