Heatley On Hold.

The Heatley Deal is on hold due to a couple factors, teams are unsure of who will have to pay the 4 million dollar fee to Heatley on July 1st. Plus Heatley who asked to be traded and has a No trade clause, would not wavie his no trade clause to go to Edmonton. He said however he will sleep on the idea and decide tomorrow again.

FREE AGENT FREENZY!

Tomorrow on TSN at 9 A.M. Pacific and 12 P.M. Atlantic time. Get ready for a whole lot of action!

Marian Hossa, Danny Heatley.

Marian Hossa has reportedly rejected a 10-Year contract worth 4 Million a year with Detroit. Apparently he wanted 6 Million a year. Danny Heatley has been asked to waive his no trade clause so he can be traded to the Edmonton Oilers, well if this rumour is true then there goes all Edmonton's young talent and a whole lot more of there Cap Room will be taken up.

J-BO Signs With Calgary.

J-BO Signs with Calgary for a 5 year deal at 6.6 Million a Year. This in my opinion is not a good desision for the Flames. They now have close to 13 Million dollars tied up in 2 defenseman and are losing camillarri and Possibaly Phanuef Or Jokien. Good Luck Next Season Calgary.

Mike Gillis Final attempt to Resign the Sedin's

Mike Gillis Flew to Sweden without notice on Monday. He got the same flight a JP Barry and went to the Sedin's homes to meet them face to face. They spent about 2 hours talking and then Mike Gillis Left them a deal and is letting them think about it. Rumours are out that it was around 5-Years, and there was a brief report out of a Swedish Newspaper saying that the Sedin's agreed with a 5-Year Contract for 6 Million a year, but this Rumour was quickly dismissed. Apperantly the contract offer is a 5-Year deal. It is currently 3:31 in Sweden so we can expect to hear a answer from the Sedin's either late tonight or early tomorrow morning. If the Sedin's don't sign then we will likely be paying a few million dollars more for 2 players to replace them, it just seems smart to sign the Sedin's and save money on them and then have more money to spend on other players. But because the Sedin's have waited this long they might as well Test Free Agency, but I hope they do not.

Roberto Luongo

Sources say that Roberto Luongo is pretty much locked up in Vancouver for another 7 or so years, reports say that the deal is done and they just need to announce it on July 1st which is the earlyest they can announce it. This could be very inviting for lots of free agents knowing that they will get to play with one of the best Goaltenders in the NHL and World. If we don't have the Sedins signed it will get interesting on July 1st.

Have the Sedins played there last games as Canucks?

Since the Sedins made the Canucks an offer nothing else has come from it. I believe the Sedins will stay here because we want them here and they want to be here. They will just strecth this out and try to get as much money as possible. I can't see MG filling there places with the free agents avalible this year. I think offering them 7 or 8 years at 5.25 million a year would be a great deal. But we will see who knows what Mike Gillis plan is. I will keep you updated.

Marian Gaborak

Marian Gaborak has suprizingly bought a house in West Van about a block from Pat Quinns house. This is weird because Gaborak does not become a free agent until July 1st and if Vancouver has already talked to him then we could get charged for tampering. But this looks very good for Vancouver. Getting a star who puts up lots of points on a defensive team. He could have an outbreak with us. We will see what happens on July 1st

Sedin's Make A Offer.

The Sedin's Made the Canucks an offer, they wanted identical 12 year deals for 63 Million dollars each. This would have been a great deal getting them for 5.25 Million a year. This however would have taken them to 40 years old and you can never tell how well a player will do in the latter part of there careers. Rumours are now that the Canucks are offering a 8 year deal for around 6 Million dollars a year, but the Sedins want 7 Million a year for a shorter contract. But i believe this is a good sign because it really shows the loyalty the Sedin's have to Vancouver and the organization and the fans. Lets hope we can lock them up b4 July 1st. GO CANUCKS GO!

Let the Transactions Begin.

With the Playoffs Now over, let the signings, trades, and transactions begin. This is set up to be a very busy off season for Vancouver, with about 10 players contracts ending. It will be Very interesting to see what happens.

Penguins Win!

Who would have thought way back in the end of November when we were playing the Penguins and we lost Roberto Luongo to a groin injury and we won the game that the Penguins would be the Stanley Cup Champions. Who would have thought when the fired there coach in February and were 5 points out of a playoff spot. Who would have thought that The coach they hired had never coached the NHL level and was only an assistant coach in the AHL b4. Who would have thought the Penguins being down 2-0 in the Stanley Cup Finals that they would come back and win 4 out of 5 in game 7? No one. This marks the team as a real team of Champions. They definatly deserved it and they outplayed the best team in the NHL over the past decade. What an exciting series, it was the most exciting Finals in a long time. Congratulations to the Penguins and especially Matt Cooke (Former Canuck) and Kris LeTang (Luc Bourdon's Best Friend), Kris said that he was playing every game for Luc and He and Luc now get to share a Cup together like they always dreamed they would. Congrats.

Off-Season

Sorry I have not posted in a few weeks, I was extremely bust with school and watching playoffs. Well we all know what happened this year, we came out really strong sweeped the Blues in 4 and had a 10 day break. Who would have thought this 10 day break wouldn't help us? I definatly didn't. We played great against chicago in game 1 but we handed game 2 to them. Game 3 was a great game, we showed we could come in there building and shut them down. But Game 4 was definatly the TSN Turning point of the series. AV desided to play defensivly, like the wild always play. We were playing outstanding until the last 10 minutes of the 3rd. We were winning 1-0 and then with 2 minutes left we made a costly error, no one picked up Martin Havlat! Anyone who knows hockey knows you can't let this guy skate around with lots of room. I thought Luongo should have made the save, but that's just how things went. Then chicago scored in OT. This evened up the series, but if we had have won the game it would have been 3-1 going back to Vancouver. All of Vancouver still believed that we could win the series. But we all no what happened after that. Anyways all in all I think we had a great season and it was very successful for MG. It will be interesting to see what he decides to do with all the Free Agents we have. I am looking forward to the draft, and some of our prospects to be on our team next season.
