He wanted a lot more than what I expected, which in return, I was forced to make him as a qualifying offer and quickly make a trade against the Tampa Bay Lightning before they did anything to compensate the offer.

What I got in return? Something for the future, they gave me 2013 1st Round Pick (I know schneider is excellent, but I would doubt it that they would make it far to the playoffs considering it's tampa! :P) and a 2013 2nd round pick.

Hopefully that 1st Round pick will benefit it, but I am really making Schneider's value really low.. This is why I am extremely confident that tampa bay will be near the low standings in the NHL.

Cool, excellent compensation I think.

10 GAME UPDATE.

Standings - Updated October 26 2012.



Recent 5 Games.

It was another slow start for Vancouver. As usual the Canucks usually have a slow start, and then boost it during November and so on. Last year was amazing as they got out of their slow start, and when on a enormous run, (7-1-2).

The Canucks weren't really on a so-so start, but 5-4-1 has gotten them 8-9th in the spot so it is not bad. Roberto Luongo also has been playing fairly better,from all the usual slow starts as well. Posting up a .905 Save percentage, with a GAA of 2.21.

Roberto Luongo has gotten a lot better. But Dubnyk has never gotten a start other than Luongo being pulled out to Dubnyk and saved 19 out of 19 shots in a game against Edmonton.

"Dubnyk will be called soon." Coach Alain Vingeault replied.

2 GAME UPDATE.BY DEREK JORY










VANCOUVER, BC -- The Canucks are suffering through a power-play drought. In the last 12 recent games, the power play was just at only 3.2%. "I don't know what it is, we've had our shots on the net, putting in traffic. It's just we need bounces." Henrik Sedin said.


In total, the canucks power-play is 12.5% this season and it is continuing to worsen. Coach Alain Vingeault is planning to edit the power-play lines. "We've got great penalty killing, good 5-on-5 but we can't produce our power play. That's going to be a big time problem if we head to the playoffs." Coach AV said.


Coach AV stated that Cody Hodgson is going to be the 2nd PP unit on centre. "He's been playing really good, despite his last few games." Cody Hodgson, playing 12 games, has already have 6 points, so far his great nhl record year, we can recall.


Maybe this 2nd PP unit will wake up.
