Eddie has a lot of potential though I think. Goalies seem to peak later than skaters in their late 20s and early 30s, so Lack's best years are probably still ahead of him. I like Wisniewski, not the best defensive guy out there but good offensive instincts, brings a lot of energy and isn't afraid to drop the gloves.

Goalie trades are always a toss up. I've seen Ottawa get rid of great goalies like Ben Bishop and Brian Elliot over the last few years for next to nothing, and now get rid of Lehner after 5 years of developing him.

I hope so, even though he's not a canuck anymore he is still one of my favourite players..

I would have preferred if the canucks never signed miller, I would have much preferred hiller who took a million and a year less on his contract, the shorter contract and slightly less money would have been a better enviroment for eddie to have a real chance at taking the number 1 spot but it didn't happen so good luck to eddie and carolina !

The Canucks need to get rid of their blue & green unis and go back to the old black, yellow, and red!


Did any of you guys see the draft? What do you think of the big trades made? Looks to me like the New York Rangers and Boston Bruins are out to make the Hurricanes contenders in the East by making such boneheaded trades.

I think Carolina made out real well. They could surprise next year. Maybe we'll finally see Sergey Tolchinskiy up in the majors. His speed and hands are incredible.

I guess we'll have to wait and see how Boston's first rounders turn out. It'll be years before we know if they made out well or not.

The Canes put Semin on waivers....hopefully the space cleared goes to Sergey Tolchinskiy

[Beanflicker]

Good move, Semin stinks! Sergey Tolchinskiy would only get rookie salary, 500 or 600k whatever it is. Might as well try him out. He's a tiny little fuck though, they need to get him on that testosterone.

MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO!!!!!

Semin is a contract year player plain and simple...he's got talent, but no drive

TJ Oshie to the Caps

@Beanflicker why do you hate Toronto so much?

They are the Chicago Cubs of hockey
