Seriously though, I would love Naslund here, (who wouldn't)

A few reasons why I don't see him coming over though:

1) I think Vancouver would be reluctant to trade their captain. Despite talk that he's not a great leader etc...I still don't see why they would deal him away without getting equal return value.

2) He's got a 6 million dollar price tag and we have under 2 mil in cap space.

3) Even if Vancouver is out of the playoff hunt, it would cost us a lot. Look at what Weight cost last year. Multiply that by 10 to get Naslund.
I'd take the bet and pay a fair value to get him.
