After a disapointing regular-season finish, a lot of questions need to be asked in the Canucks' camp. Will we resign Markus Naslund? Will the Sedin twins stay in Vancouver? Will Luongo be able to carry a team almost single handly to a cup?
Nonis needs to address the Naslund situation, and I think that the best solution is to just get rid of Naslund. He isn't a good leader for this team, and will be captain if he returns. He is getting paid way too much for the the amount of points he's getting. He's making roughly one million dollars for every 10 points he gets.
I can see the twins being traded for a star player such as Rick Nash, or a star player of that caliber. It would do a lot better to have one elite forward than 2 good second-line players playing on the first line.
As for Luongo, I don't think there is any question that he must stay. However, he needs someone to score on the other end of the ice. Vacnouver shouldn't be so dependent on defense, even if they have arguably the best goalie in the league. They should get rid of Ohlund and get a speedy center who can win faceoffs and put a couple in the net too.
That's my opinion anyways, hope you enjoyed.

The sedins for rick nash is a horrible trade for vancouver.
nash only put up 69 points in 82 games... each sedin has put up more points than him.. absolutely bad trade..
they should keep naslund but sign him for 3-3.5 million.. and they should remove the C from him to take a load off him.. and give it to someone who doesn't need to score to show leadership.. ie Willie Mitchell.
Again, i reiterate that the sedins - nash trade is an absolutely horrible deal.

Trading the Sedins -- no way... Trading the Sedins for Rick Nash, you are kidding right?
The Canucks need to fill offensive holes. We don't need a superstar, we just need 4 full lines.

ok yea maybe not a rick nash, but i meant like someone like him, a big player that can score too like ,Bertuzzi(in his prime),orjarome ignla maybe(although the flames would never givew him up). and its not nash's fault look at the support he has on that team, not much besides Zherdev.

WE SHOULD ONLY DO THIS RICK NASH TRADE IF WE AQUIRE MARION HOSSA AND A CENTRE LIKE JEFF CARTER AND WE COULD AFFORD THAT.THEN TRADE THE SEDINS FOR RICK NASH.IF YOU DO THAT HE WILL BECOME A ONE HUNDRED POINT SCORER AS WELL AS HOSSA AND JEFF CARTER COULD REALLY GET HIS STATS UP. NASLUND AND MORRISON MAKE A DECENT SECOND LINE TO GO ALONG WITH A FEARSOME FIRSTLINE THAT HAS TREMDOUS SKILL AND GIRT. NASLUND AND MORRISON ARE 20 TO 25 GOAL SCORES.THINK ABOUT GETTING STILLMAN WHO WILL BE AT A CHEAP PRICE AND IS STILL GOOD ENOUGH TO SCORE IN BUNCHES.
OUR LINES WOULD BE
HOSSA,JEFF CARTER,RICK NASH
NASLUND,MORRISON,KESLER
BURROWS,PYAT,SHANNON
THEN A BUNCH OF NOOBS
