Tampa - Van (Lu)


Recommended Posts

To Tampa:

Luongo

Rights to Raymond**

To Vancouver:

37th, 40th, 50th, 53rd** picks

** These are only included in deal if Florida elects to give its 2nd round choice to Tampa this year.

Why Vancouver does this:

- Cap space

- Go into draft with 6 top 60 picks to either use to find a few gems (good scouting team) or use as trade bait.

- Get a pick for a contract that wasn't working in the system but would work well somewhere else.

- Luongo gets to go to a team near his family helping Vancouver's PR reputation

Why TB does this:

- Get franchise goalie

-Improve 26th-rated penalty kill with a young forward who also has good potential offense

-keep both top 20 picks in draft.

The 10th overall plus Connelly for Lui and say Raymond would be a win-win for both teams.

Been salivating for a while now at the prospect of icing a kid line of Kassian - Jensen - Connelly next season.

I never see Malone's name in proposals anymore. I'm not totally sold on Connolly and I don't discuss draft picks often in trades because they are both insignificant past the 1st round and can swing in either direction. The way I see it there's 4 players we can target on TB in a straight up trade of players, NO draft picks.

-Lacavalier (Similar big contract to Luongo's)

-Purcell (seems like a Burrows-esque player)

-Malone (Big,power-forward who can score)

-Connolly (unproven, RW who can score,dangle and has size but might not make his potential)
