The idea of a Bobby Ryan trade has moved from an imminent and sad proposition (or a great idea, depending on who you are) to offseason filler. The Canucks have offered Shane Doan a contract, and we will know the current Yotes captain's decision by September 15 (the same day that the current CBA expires). And apparently, Lubomir Visnovsky doesn't think that playing with the Isles would be so bad after all.
