You know who I'd really like from that list? Brian Rafalski from New Jersey, Ryan Smyth and Chris Drury... just to really piss the Buffalo fans off.

you mean see them on the list or see them get traded?

see em sign up with Philly. Buffalo is going to have trouble keeping both Drury and Briere. They're either going to have to get rid of one of those 2 or part with other important pieces of their team. There might be a little bidding war for Smyth. Philly needs a good leader and play making center to go with Gagne. Smyth fits that mold. Rafalski has always been a pretty solid d-man. He could certainly help out the young group Philly has.

Why don't they take Naslund. I'd like that, and so would many more Canucks fans

cause the chances are it'd end up just like every other trade offer that Philly gets. It'd involve (unless you wanna take Pitkanen) their youth which they're not going to part with.

 

[jeezy]

Naslund is not going anywhere, unless he lifts his no trade clause and if you think hes not the right captain then you probably dont watch enough hockey. Hes one of the greatest players out of sweden to ever play in the nhl. Ya so he had a un-naslund like season and still put up 60 points being juggled around different lines. He has become a great 2 way player and his leadership role has been great this year, his attitude has changed alot. Sedins are great but they didnt show up in the playoffs and they have a consistant linemate to play with unlike Naslund, you try playing with several different players and see if the chemistrys there, even the Sedins said they aren't used to having forwards being juggled onto there line with them. They need to get some good players to play with Markus and thats it. By the way Naslund was the best player for our team in the playoffs along side Luongo of course.

 

[bigbadbrody]

Personally I think that the Canucks could be better if they were to get rid of Naslund. He hasn't had a decent season in a while, and looked pretty sad in the playoffs:2 cents:

 

[jeezy]

Depends on what kind of players you would get for him, he was a whole different player in the playoffs. He was never known for his physical play and lead the team in hitting and goals.

 

[L3ggy]

you are just saying that because he is from Sweeden and so are you. But in reality he is not.

The sedin Twins are great hockey players

I am not just saying that 'coz im from Sweden, The Sedin Twins r good too.

 

[Clarkie25]

Well, in a little less than 3 hours we'll all get to see if Buffalo tries to do something about their situation or if they simply go out with nothing more than a whimper. I predict that Ottawa will go for the throat and try to put it away early. 4-1 Ottawa.

 

[Clarkie25]

son of a bitch! great Chance to take Buffalo out and they don't go for it.

 

[nealdrox]

Im pretty pissed but oh well I guess.

 

[ckjedi66]

Oh god the Sabres won, here come the fanboys with the cries of "The cup is ours!!!!!" :rofl:

 

[nealdrox]

Sabres played good Ill give them that. Line 1 from the Sens just didnt show up tonight.

 

[Thunderbolt]

Ottawa has to win the next match or they might be in trouble . They can't let the sabres regain their confidence . And since the next game is in Buffalo it's gonna be a tough one for the Sens .

 

[bigbadbrody]

If Ottawa does not advance I am not watching anymore. As long as Detroit or Buffalo don't win I will be satisfied

 

[nealdrox]

Well I need Sens to win tonight. Please win Sens!!!

 

[satan81]

Did NBC just switch to horse racing ? Are they not going to show OT in the Sabres game?

 

[nealdrox]

[satan81]
