It was a wild Saturday on the eve of the draft, if speculation is what you’re after: Now both Vancouver goalies on the trade market, Tyler Seguin is available from the Boston Bruins, David Perron from the St. Louis Blues, Cal Clutterbuck from the Minnesota Wild.
Nathan Horton has told the Bruins he’ll be leaving to test the free agent market. He’ll be an unrestricted free agent July 5.
The Bruins are taking offers on Seguin, who has a six-year deal that will start paying him $5.75 million per season beginning next year. They want to open up some salary cap room to give Patrice Bergeron a mega-deal.
he circus that is Vancouver’s goaltending situation took a surprising turn when GM Mike Gillis revealed he’s been asked about Cory Schneider, with rumours suggesting Edmonton is after him. The Canucks, of course, have been trying to trade Roberto Luongo for months. Gillis said he may have to buy out Luongo, but nothing was certain.
“You have to listen,” Gillis said Saturday. “If you’re in any business, you have to listen to what the proposals may be and act accordingly. That’s what we’re doing.”
