    Default Canucks Update

    Hi All
    Well the latest I\'m getting is that Un-Luckey Luc may be done again. Looks like Edler has the edge on him. Luc\'s having trouble with the thinking part of his game.
    Jannik Hansen.. is still hanging in there and Veenyo is singing his praises.
    Nazzy.. just keeps looking better..keep your fingers crossed he gets off to a good start.
    Rick Rypien.. is back to his old tricks.. banging and a crashin.. Kamikaze. He might take a 4th line job.
    Krajicek..is going to get a big break... I think Salo\'s minutes are prolly going to him to see what he can do with the opportunity.
    Nonis..is shopping for another D again or so the newest rumour goes. I think its true tho. Danny Markov anyone? Prolly can\'t afford him. Anyone know Markov\'s $ this yr?

    Another D? That\'s crazy...

    But then again if Luc can\'t make the cut, and Salo is injured (likely for half the season with his luck) Miller has the abdominal thing and Mitchell is with a sore groin, l can see the rumors start to fly.

    Ah, the fishbowl that is Vancouver. If there\'s not some sort of trade rumour going around, it wouldn\'t feel like home!

    Since last season, it\'s been that Ohlund\'s gonna be traded because of the Nux D depth for a scoring forward...to so many different teams! I heard Elias, Murray, Jokinen, Marleau...the list goes on. Or Morrison\'s getting traded, or that the Nux are signing Gomez, or that they\'re signing Forsberg, or that Jesse Schultz is the next coming of christ...

    This is what we deal with. Seriously? A new d-man is not coming. Even if Salo, Mitchell and Miller go, there\'s still guys like Edler, Bourdon, etc., that they\'ll bring up to cover in the meantime. If we\'ve learned anything about Nonis, it\'s that he doesn\'t make knee-jerk moves. And I think he\'s learned that he hates being stuck for cap room also. Miller will be back a few games into the season, ditto with Salo (although you never know with him), and Mitchell will sit out a couple pre-season games and be ready for action when the real games start.

    One thing\'s for sure though...Bieksa will be given every opportunity to log huge minutes at the beginning of the season if a couple of the boys are still a little tender...

    Yep thats what the man said lookin for cheap d depth...heard it might be Nolan Pratt. Might not be quite so anxious tho if Edler keeps up the good work.
    Hah...you hit the nail on the head re. fish bowl.

    I like Nonis, I hope he has learned from the Jan Bulis and Marc Chouinard signings.

    what do you guys think about Lukas Krajicek\'s numbers for this year and the next 2-3. Do you think he could be come a fantasy stud? 50-60 points for a d-man??

    what do you all think??
