dannyegg Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 anyone who plays here would want to be traded given how they are treated by the media and fans. so disappointed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ovechking Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 OOOOOOOOOOMG imagine SCHNEIDER VS LUONGO in the finals next year!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandmaster Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 We should keep both. We don't need a #1. They can split the season. Lui's cap hit is not bad, it can be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzi Babe Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 It's probably best for all concerned. Luongo can go somewhere out of the spotlight, we can get a few assets for him, and Cory can become the #1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NordicNinja Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 What about the fact that Gillis has publicly stated that he will not ask a player to waive their no-trade clause. Luongo said IF asked, he would waive it, but Gillis has said he won't ask. So either Gillis breaks his word or Luongo has to ask for a trade.

Guest The Brown Burrows Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Great news if we can sign Cory to a short term (5 year max) contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5nothincanucksohno Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Don't we get more in return for Schneider? Don't get me wrong, I think Schneids is great but we still have Lou and Lack. We could get a huge amount of young talent for Schneider. The number of teams are going to be limited with Lou and other GMs are going to play the salary card. I say we keep Lou and get 3 or 4 great prospects for Schneider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kacholu Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Although I feel bad for lui, I think a new start would be the best for him. I don't think the media will ever let lui get away with even a bad pre season game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poetica Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Of course he would be willing if it's what the team needs. Despite the bad rap people have given him, he's shown time and again that he's a professional and a team player. And that's only been increasingly true this season. And who wants to stay where they're not wanted or appreciated? That being said, I don't understand why people think it's an either/or situation. The NHL is changing. As Gillis said in his media interview today, the emphasis is on scoring. That makes games much harder for goalies so having 2 awesome goalies is something we should take pride in and be trying to protect, not trying to tear apart. We don't need to get rid of either of them, we need to keep them both. I firmly believe they make each other better. Cory needs to sign a 2-year deal with a promise or even guarantee of more starts (I'm thinking of a 60/40 share, barring injury or poor performance) and then he and Luo are given starts according to who's hot instead of assuming one of them must get the start. Like Gillis said, every position has to be up for grabs and every player has to earn his keep. We have 2 awesome goalies more than willing to do just that and our team can only benefit from them proving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Anderson Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Spezza said the same thing to Bryan Murray last year and he didn't get traded. So I wouldn't exactly take him saying that he is fine with being traded to mean that he will actually get traded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lateralus Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 The big question might be, if/when Luongo leaves, can Schneider handle the #1 spot and the large amount of games 60+ as the starter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kacvan Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 We will return to the goalie grave yeard if Luongo is gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odjickwillkillyou Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Lu knows he can only hurt his potential stock if he whines about this, thereby making him look like more of a team player to suitors. Do not get me wrong, he has been a great teammate, but all he can do at this point is potential damage control in the event of a trade or different scenario arising. If he does move on, I wish him the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
