Ron McLean: “Lets get to the meeting in Minnesota. Because the World Juniors are taking place in St Paul. Everybody’s together, and maybe Vancouver first.”
Friedman: “Yeah, well, there’s a lot of talk going on. I don’t know how much action there’s going to be, but there’s going to be a lot of talk. night, the Vancouver Canucks announced that they had re signed Linus Karlsson to a two year deal.
The big name everybody in Vancouver is kind of talking about right now is Kiefer Sherwood. Unrestricted free agent having a career year, and the Canucks did make a new offer to Sherwood this week. I still think there’s a sizable gap here.
I don’t have a timeline for when anything is going to occur in terms of a trade or anything like that. But they did, the both sides did talk this week. I still think, however, there’s a gap in where Sherwood would like to be and what the Canucks are willing to do. So let’s see where it takes us.”

“Secondly, for the second time in three games , the Edmonton Oilers made Andrew Mangiapani a healthy scratch. It’s going to be interesting to see where this goes here.
I do think there’s interest in the player. I heard there were some teams maybe a little concerned about the second year. Although other people say they don’t think that’s going to be a big deal. He’s under contract for this year and next.
I heard Anaheim was one of the teams kind of poking around it. We’ll see where that goes.
But, either, you know, Edmonton is going to have to do one of two things, either they’re going to move on from him, or they’ll play him and see if they can get him on a good role. They did try the other night.
