i don't see the point in this
"The $297,297 Kovalchuk missed today is money he will never, ever get back. And the more cheques he misses, the better the deal is going to have to be for the players to justify him sitting out. And unlike the owners, the players can direct their leadership to get a deal done regardless of how disadvantageous it is to them."

Samuelsson is a 40 point scorer. Thats not a bad grab for the Nucks.

this read helped make some sense out of the deal
"If you're looking for Dale Tallon logic here, consider this: Booth was someone else's cornerstone, someone else's building block. Booth, and his long-term deal, simply weren't in the plans. (He had a no-trade clause that kicked in next summer, per George Richards.) For a team that added so much payroll so quickly, clearing out these contracts made fiscal, if not hockey, sense."

I think Vancouver wins this one. Marco Sturm hasn't done much for the canucks.

Clearly a financially motivated move by Florida.

Booth's contract is pretty bad, but Samuelsson and Sturm are awful. This feels like a move designed to clear out Booth before he's untradeable.
Meanwhile the Canucks can theoretically pump up Booth and then deal him. It's interesting that a player like Booth, who's in his prime, being dealt for 2 players who aren't, this is a 'go for it now' deal, because it's hard to know what Booth actually is.

A lot of talk around twitter that Vancouver may be involved in another move...

Booth will be great in Van and guessing Florida wants Sams Defense along side Jov
