GDT: The Canucks and the Expansion Draft

[TruGr1t]

My mind is boggled they're actually taking Sbisa. Biega is available and a better defenseman. I guess the fact Sbisa only has that 1 year remaining on his contract gives them some flexibility.

 

[MikeK]

Looks promising

Maybe they're thinking trade deadline. Sbisa only has a year left?

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Boucher probably not taken.

Lol well alright then.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

Maybe they're thinking trade deadline. Sbisa only has a year left?

That's already more intelligent than what the Canucks have been doing the last few years.

Pro scouting in this league is awful.

70% of the scouts on 70% of the teams are still the dinosaur types being made fun of in Moneyball.

Square jaw! Pedigree! Size! Hard to play against!

 

[FroshaugFan2]

Miller gonna get paid now.

Miller getting a one year deal is a lot better than Benning signing Sbisa to a long term extension.

 

[M2Beezy]

OMG Sbisaaaaaaaaaaaa. Goodbye town enemy

 

[MikeK]

That's already more intelligent than what the Canucks have been doing the last few years.

True. Least we don't have to wait all year for Benning to dish out a terrible extension.

 

[vancityluongo]

The NHL, man.

If it's not Gaunce I honestly would have assumed Boucher. Hope Sbisa does well there if it is him.

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

True. Least we don't have to wait all year for Benning to dish out a terrible extension.

That's true but now he has that money to spend elsewhere....

 

[Cupless44]

Not surprised considering we've had a complete idiot as our GM for the past 3 years.

Vegas literally started with nothing.

Deadly combination of the worst GM for the last 3 years and the worst drafting in the NHL for the 10 years before that.

 

[Nuckles]

 

[Hansen]

I think Biega is gone. If it's not Gaunce, their LD is loaded, RD is thin. I can't see them taking Sbisa's contract and doing us a favour.

 

[M2Beezy]

So its Biega WOW

 

[thepoeticgoblin]

Well. Obviously VGK refused to pick anyone then. Miller's rights?

Edit:
Oh, forgot about Bulldog. Crap.

 

[Steveorama]

Uh oh.
Was hoping Rodin would get more of a chance in Vancouver this season.

 

[VanCanucks53]

Maybe it's Miller or Biega.

 

[TruGr1t]

Someone's sources are wrong here. The teams have known who they were losing since this morning.

I'm surprised if Sekeres is wrong since he probably heard directly from Linden.

 

[y2kcanucks]

So its Biega WOW

Stop jumping to these conclusions. Nobody knows yet.

 

[Shareefruck]

That would be an amazing result.

 

[RandV]

Well in the poll I've put my bet on Bachman, taking a long shot that they opt for an AHL goalie.

 

[RandV]

What hurts the chances for Gaunce/Sbisa is that Vegas will be picking 30 players and have access to a lot of mid-level players. Gaunce may be the best choice from Vancouver but no point taking him if he's only going to be you're 14/15th forward

 

[Saturated Fats]

Has the trade freeze been lifted?

 

[FOurteenS inCisOr]

So its Biega WOW

**pssst**

My sources are telling me it's Gaudette.
