Pavel was reached at his in Los Angeles home where he had this to say, "Well it is going to be nice to play in Vancouver. I have many friends there and I also still own a home there. I am really looking forward to the opportunity of playing with Joe Sakic, and bringing my exciting style back for the fans of Vancouver." The deal sees Brett Hull and Keith Primeau leaving town, along with Jyrki Lumme, and youngsters Patrick Poulin and Pavel's brother Valeri. Along with Pavel , Nelson Emerson who is rejoining the Voodoo, Dave Lowry, Alexsei Karpotsev, and Danton Cole. Nelson Emerson will fit in nice as the second line center, while Dave Lowry will have big shoes to fill on LW as the Voodoo aren't very deep there. In other news the Voodoo have welcomed Nolan Baumgartner to the team. Nolan will compliment the Vancouver defence. Coaches Darren Kinnaird and co coaches Tom Renney (newly hired) and Pat Quinn, feel that Baumgartner has really good talent but feel that it mut be worth it in the long run to have him play for the Syracuse Crunch (Voodoo farm team) this season to let his skills fully develop. Thats all from Vancouver. ****************************************************************************** Darren Kinnaird www.ualberta.ca/~kinnaird/ Owner and CEO Vancouver Voodoo-WHL Sometimes I wanna kill,Sometimes I wanna die, Sometimes I wanna destroy,Sometimes I wanna cry, Sometimes I could get even, Sometimes I could give up, Sometimes I give,Sometimes I never give a F--k -Guns N Roses ******************************************************************************
