The Sedins and the face pubes, what they need to wear are matching head-bands.

I was told that Glendale and the NHL have agreed to a 30 day extension to 'sort out remaining obstacles'. I wonder how much of that is Jamison not being able to drum up enough cash and how much is Glendale hoping the signature collections fail.

It was an extension of the arena management deal. The NHL is going to "manage" the arena for another month so their employees and other shit don't get thrown out on the street.

Can't wait for the NHL and Glendale to finally put all this business behind them so we can just get back to watching the Phoenix Coyotes play ice hockey.

Canucks draft position in Gillis era: 10 (Hodgson), 22, 25 (dumped for Ballard), 29, 26

We clearly have a lot of draft misses but we're not exactly getting the Oilers draft order either. I'm guessing at worst Schultz is looking at our season record and how guys like Ohlund/Erhoff have fared leaving town for big money.

My take on schultz situation :

He's signing with the leafs, putting on this show to make it seem like there's no tampering involved by gardiner

His agency is feeding info to media saying Canucks and oilers are his preferred destinations

on his birthday Burke calls him up, says happy birthday! Offers him the 100,000 more now to his newfound age, magical compelling argument ruffles his non existent feathers and voila! Burke gives him a leafs jersey as a birthday present! Appears like leafs convinced him as opposed to gardiner wooing him.

Remember: jake gardiner convinced schultz to stay one extra year in college. That is something that shows a good friendship and shows how much respect schultz has for gardiner

IMO this is all a show

Blues fan here, wanted to know what you guys think about Vladimir Tarasenko deciding to sign here and play with us next season?

From an interview at that draft, Jarmo (at the time he worked in our organization, but now he is with Jokerit) said; "If his name was Walt Smith, he would have been long gone"

Assuming Burke and the rest of the management team did not specifically instruct Gardiner to contact Schultz, I don't think it's tampering if Gardiner convinces him to sign with the Leafs. Either way, it would be nice if we get him.

I was hoping that teams wouldn't entertain Schultz. Like offering sheet a bit of respect between GMs. If the kid didn't like the team he was drafted by (really its the NHL be harpy to be drafted) he should sort it our with management.

A free agent is a free agent

No contract in place meaning teams are free to do it

You cannot just sit there and play ethical judge, he did something technically allowed by the CBA

He exercised his right- it sucks, sure. Anaheim will make sure this loophole is closed. But you can't blame someone for taking advantage of it.

The media are loving this Schultz stuff. Now we're supposedly down to five teams:

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie
NYR are in on Justin Schultz. @DarrenDreger confirms TOR is in,@Real_ESPNLeBrun confirms OTT is in. That makes it VAN, EDM, NYR, TOR, OTT.

If he goes to the Rangers than I imagine DelZotto is on the package towards Nash which I am kind of hoping for if we dont get Schultz.

I understand he is within his player rights but it is shitty thing to do. A top tier prospect just says F-U I'm a free agent without playing a single game for the team who drafted him.

It's a loophole, they should close it.

This kind of shit happens in the CHL all the time, but few NHLers prospects use it.

Either Schultz is a Grade A asshole or something went sour between him and the Ducks.

Most prospects sign with their club.

Del Zotto isn't being traded for Nash, because im Not sure they need another offensive minded d-man. Also, even with Schultz that would hurt our depth. Don't see MDZ moved unless its midseason. Not surprised NYR only American team on list. Sather is tight with Meehan and Newport Sports.

And yeah some news dregs. You mean the best player in hockey is going to sign a mega lucrative contract with the team that drafted him? Holy shit!

That's a TON of liability for the Pens to be taking on (as Crosby can no longer be insured), so either Shero feels 110% about Crosby's health or his asshole is going to pucker every time Crosby takes any kind of hit for the next decade.

Well he'd be insane to let him go, so it's a lose-lose situation, and a big gamble in either case.

And of course, the deal will be some cap-circumventing bullshit.

He'll make $80M of that ~$105M in the first 4-5 years.

What happened to all the talk about Sid singing for way below market so that the Pens could sign other players?
