Say you overpay Mike Ribeiro for 5 years @$32M. That's your #1 centre during the 3-4 "rebuilding years", until at least one of the younger guys (say, Jankowski if he pans out or Barkov/Mackinnon/Whoever else is drafted this year and next) are ready to kick ass as top 6 centres. You may also have some space to get a good middle six player in terms of possession play - say, Cochrane boy Mason Raymond, who looks to be too expensive to keep for a cash-strapped Canucks squad, or Michael Ryder, or Pascal Dupuis. Take one of those guys on a 1-2 year deal with the full expectation that you'll sell them as a rental at the applicable trade deadling for a prospect.

How is Backlund on the 4th line and overpaying for Ribero a good move?

I'd rather a less talented Backlund as a 1-2 center than seeing Ribero in a Flames uni anytime.

All I ask is a good effort and to not be blown out.

Get ready for the Luuuuuuuuu's

@SUNGilbertson: Canucks G Cory Schneider has the flu, so UC Dinos G Dustin Butler will be Vancouver's backup vs #Flames. Roberto Luongo starts.

I hope the UofC kid doesn't try to trip Luo in the hallway or something.
Maybe they checked to make sure he wasn't a local fan first. Lol.

What a lucky guy though... even if it is with the Canucks of all teams.

Flames need to win tonight and Saturday night, then lose the rest and I'm happy.
