Ryan Parent will be put on waivers tomorrow by the Canucks.
That from Dan Murphy on Twitter. Parent has a 1-way contract. He could be claimed either on waivers or re-entry waivers if the Canucks run into injury problems with their D down the road. He was hanging out with the team as the 8th defenceman behind Rome, but with Raymond returning it's cap crunch time! "Salary Cap" and "Canucks" are going to be a hot topic over the next several weeks. Especially now that Sami Salo has begun skating with the team. I'll have more on that soon.

We haven't even seen him play
= no comment possible?
The only question I have is that, if Parent is on a one-way, could we keep him in the minors until playoffs to have him not count against the cap, then it’ll be a million dollar insurance policy for the D of sorts?
About it.
Or, some defense starved team claims him. They are certainly letting everyone know ( not until tomorrow officially ).
Either way, at least it clears some Cap. which should be fun for all the math folk here in the coming days. How to get Sami under, and when it is most optimal to get him back ( or trade someone ) should be good for some rosterbation….( and deadline rosterbation is the best kind )

hahaha, yes, but rosterbation only goes so far in the Salo scenario. It is most likely about flogging a roster player for draft picks to create space for Salo

Trade Luongo!

so probably isn’t worth the shit it wipes off a street persons ass, but they were talking about MayRay being cap relief/trade bait now… THAT would suck.

7-0-2
since Raymond went down with the thumb and hasn’t been in the lineup. What do they say about fixing things that aren’t broken?

Trade him
To Nashville. They seem to collect wee forwards down there.

Raymond and Bieksa
for Cody Franson and Ryan Ellis?

As it stands
Right now, I’d rather wave goodbye to Erhoff.

Raymond replaces Hason on the 2nd line and he plays with Kess and Tambo on the speed line. Hansen gets moved to the 4th line and Volpatti heads to the moose.
As for Salo returning, I could argue that they are also 7-0-2 during that run without Salo in the lineup… but he has a no trade clause so it gets tricky.
I’d rather move Ballard than Erhoff, but that depends on if the Hoff can get a deal done at a reasonable rate and Ballards trade clause.
This is all well and good, but does not make us cap compliant.

Possible. He’s 6-3, 23 yo, makes $925 this yr and next. RT @RearView4U: "Any chance the Oil will look at Ryan Parent? "

"Do you know of Dr. Freud, Mr. Ismay? His ideas about the male preoccupation with size might be of particular interest to you." Rose from Titanic.
I would trade Erhoff and keep Ballard, we need strong and durable defense. Erhoff helps with scoring, but he is worse than Ballard when it comes to defending in our own zone.
And Salo can score as well.
But the problem is that if we lose Erhoff and then Salo gets hurt again (which you and I know that it will happen), then we are screwed.

Normally, I would just say what Section is saying: we are doing great right now, why fix anything. Why do we even need Salo?
But we need Salo’s toughness in the playoffs.

I think Erhoff is better and cheaper than Ballard and if I had to chose between the two, I would choose Erhoff for this year’s playoff run. However… next year is a different beast and it remains to be seen what kind of contract he’s interested in.
As for Salo – he’s already on our team so we can’t just not have him. He has a no trade clause and he will be healthy soon. I’m pretty sure you can’t leave healthy (for Salo) players on the LTIR.
I have a post going up about this topic on New Years Day

Great
So now everyone’s going to be trying to figure out salary cap calculations and the CBA while hung over.

Healthy or not
Salo will be on the LTIR until someone else on the Canucks gets an injury and goes on the LTIR. Until then he’s going to be at 80-95% trying to get “back to game shape”.
Don't do anything till the playoffs
bring up Salo in the playoffs.

It is my understanding
that if the league thinks a player is fit to play they can bring in a neutral party physician to determine if the players is healthy.

i read some quotes from the CBA in other forums that seem to indicate that teams do not need to clear cap space for injured players getting healthy. Its a bit of a loophole that might allow the canucks to leave him on the LTIR…
Well if they did that
it would be a pretty shitty way to treat a long time player who has been good for this team for a long time.

So,
You would sacrifice a younger player to the cap for a guy who, in all likelihood, won’t be here next year?

If it gives us a better chance to win this year
absolutely. And given his injury history and the amount of time he has missed this season who will be lining up to give Salo a big contract? He will probably return here for about half what he is making now if he doesn’t retire.

And of course
that doesn’t really have anything to do with what I said. I said leaving a healthy player on LTIR would be a shitty way to treat a veteran guy. I didn’t say anything about what I want to do instead.

Speaking of waivers...
Rolston has now cleared re-entry in Jersey.
Nobody interested in taking him at half price (albeit 2.5 mil or so). Lou must has a sad right now.
