Except if you grab someone off waivers you have to put them on your active roster, which is definitely not a steal.
So don't get violent and don't get caught with your head down, the night she stole the moon.

I saw way too much of this on Twitter yesterday…why the hell would we want a guy back on the team who can’t make a rebuilding squad? Not to mention that if a small skilled center in Morrison is against the current team culture, where the hell would Grabner ever fit in?
Insanity I say!

yup
that would be stupid. Although lastword would probably have an orgasm.

This is looking more and more like a pure salary dump for Ballard…cuz all they have for him is Bernier. Yeesh.
Didn’t realize you had to keep the guy on the roster if you claim ’em…Grabner would be fine back in Manitoba…that was my initial thoughts. Or, he could join Chubby in Rooooskie-ville
Don’t forget the 1st. Not insignificant.
I would still make the trade, don’t get me wrong, but the 1st isn’t chump change.
Clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose.
Florida wanted Ballard’s contract gone too. If nothing else they get a warm body in Bernier and a project in exchange for cap space and a first rounder.

I agree
with Yankee.
If he couldn’t crack a weak roster on a rebuilding team do we really want him?

a 2nd source just said that Perrault is now on waivers.
Nucks Misconduct chief babe, now with a new Twitter username.
Keep your stick on the ice. Seriously, keep it on the ice, or you'll take another hooking penalty and put the Canucks back on the kill!
Who does that leave
looking for a roster spot in the forwards? I guess Hodgson, Tambellini, Schaeffer, Rypien and Desbiens are chasing the last two spots (assuming the Sedins, Sammy, Mayray, Kes, Malhotra, Torres, Glass, Hansen and Bolduc are locks).
I think Schaefer may get cut. 4th line looks like Glass/Bolduc/Desbiens. The lone remaining question is what happens with Tambo and Hodgson. If you’re a conspiracy nut, you may look at the fact Lack is still on the team as the potential Vancouver is trying to move Schneider, but that seems far our there.

So no room
for Rypien? I guess he can start in the press box and slot in if / when we need a fighter.

Right. He’s injured right now anyway, so probably not ready for Saturday.

SOB's days
in a Nuck uni were numbered imo in good part because he was the only Canuck with the balls to give 5uongo some of his own medicine in the playoffs last year.
How do you tell when blue cheese has gone bad?
Forgive me for dancing on the graves of these guys
But this article was a long time coming:
'Nucks Misconduct - Housing Swedish Millionaires Since 2000.
well, doesn’t this mean that we shouldn’t be sending SOB off to sea yet? So maybe he hits the Moose. But we’d have to put him on re-entry waivers and hope somebody else takes him. Or, what if we run into injury issues on D and we need him?
They’ve been trying to trade him but to no avail. Are they just going to let him rot in Winterpeg and never call him back up?

I should have read the article first..
On the other, they have a pair of players on the last year of their respective contracts who must now be viewed as injury insurance, providing they’re not claimed on re-entry waivers.

On Re-Entry Waivers
You get stuck with paying half their salary and its on your cap limit. I can’t see O’Brien making it through Re-Entry waivers and we are so cap tight that we can’t risk paying half the salary.
I always wonder if GMs talk amongst themselves about putting a guy on re-entry waivers. That way there is less of a gamble of having him back on your team.
On the $$$ aspect in that regard, I am pretty sure Gillis is still trying to pull off a trade. He’s probably almost giving him away at this point.
Gillis to another GM: “You can’t just have him. I need something in return.”
Other GM: “Fuck that, I’m not even giving you a late pick.”
Gillis: “A year subscription to Hustler?”
Other GM: “DONE!”
