Confirmed with Link: [VAN/OTT] Canucks trade D Patrick Mullen for F Jeff Costello

[yoss]

What? Wow, terrible value for Mullen. What are you thinking Gillis?

Just kidding I have no idea who either of these guys are.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Why is people saying elvis?
A contract slot could mean a lot of things

Elvis Costello is a singer

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

I would be surprised if he ever took up a contract spot.

Me too. I think he'll get an ATO once his college days are done, and then see how he looks from there.

Pretty clearly this is only a re-tool.

Mullen has a contract.

Other is a college fwd with no contract.

hint: contract spot deal

How the hell do you remember Macgregor Sharp?

 

[arttk]

re-boot.

 

[PhilMick]

How the hell do you remember Macgregor Sharp?

I swear someone around here mentioned him a few weeks ago. And that name! How could you forget it?

Just as random as Jeff Finger

 

[Free Edler]

Macgregor Sharp is pretty much the best Bond villain name ever. How could we forget him?

 

[KeninsFan]

Freeing up a contract spot?

Yes, every rumoured Nucks deal has them taking back multiple assets for one of our guys.

Mullen was a nothing prospect, couldn't play defense at the AHL level.

 

[The Stig]

ok.....

 

[luongo321]

Pretty clearly this is only a re-tool.

When you bring in a beast like Costello it will send shockwaves into the Canucks dressing room. This is a huge day for the Canucks. MG does it again!

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Woohoo.

 

[y2kcanucks]

I like this deal as much as I liked Burke acquiring Sergei Varlamov back in the day.

 

[Win One Before I Die]

Clearing space to find Booth some line mates finally.

 

[Bleach Clean]

Ryan Shannon for Lawrence Nycholat.

I don't know why I remember this.

Lol you're right. I misremembered that as Nonis because he brought Shannon here.

 

[canuck4life16]

minor deal that happen every TD

 

[RobertKron]

Just as random as Jeff Finger

Man, Finger must have the highest earnings/NHL games played ratio ever of a guy that didn't get shut down by injuries.

Anyway, I believe this brings them to 47 contracts.

 

[SeawaterOnIce]

minor deal that happen every TD

Yeah, sort of true, but this is Jeff Costello we're talking about. Show some respect.

 

[tantalum]

clearly a deal that fits into the youth movement of the organization....
