I dont know if its been mentioned but...
Friedman was on sportsnet 650 yesterday and noted a quoten from Edler in which Edler expressed that he is about to become the 2nd all time leader for games played by a Dman in Canuck history. Friedman said this was important to Edler and lilely means Edler wouldnt waive his NTC.
that's not true, actually. edler is 3rd; he cleared 4th last season, and needs to stay longer than the rest of this season to catch 2nd. edler is only a few points away from passing ohlund as the canucks' all-time scoring leader on defense, after having just passed lumme and kearns, who had been tied for 2nd. i'm guessing that's what friedman was talking about.
but who knew that edler was so obsessed with beating ohlund? with his NMC, he can beat ohlund in three things beyond an eye exam: games played as a canuck, points, and not going to tampa. sad, though, that he was never able to match ohlund on the ice, which we all hoped he would when the viking took the eaglet under his wing a decade ago.
