TOMapleLaughs Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Burke's an honest guy. (tsk) He says he hasn't talked at all about Luongo. Meanwhile, i'm still waiting for that Perry trade to happen... TOML Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jester@wraiths.ca Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Obviously you've never seen what Ron Wilson can do to a player... At least AV has a Jack Adams and got us to a Stanley Cup Finals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dasein Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 No, I've seen how horrible he is with players, but comparing how a young player who doesn't know he can be a solid NHL'er yet has lost confidence, to watching AV change ballard who was a very solid top 4 D in every other season he played, be reduced to being completely unsure of everything he does, is a whole different level of messing a player up... Ballard had confidence at this level and it was shattered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 The Maple Leafs could look at signing veteran goalie Tomas Vokoun or possibly trading for Roberto Luongo. “It’s certainly nothing we can discuss publicly,” said Burke, emerging from the league’s general managers’ meeting. “We’re trying to evaluate what we have and what we can get and go from there.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RunningWild Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Strombone @strombone1 Wow bud @NotBobbyLu I thought for sur I'd be the first to know if you got traded. How do no trade clauses work btw? Cuz I'm confused? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phamda Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 I think the earliest we will hear a trade announcement will be after the Calder Cup. The Marlies are playing the Norfolk Admirals. I can't imaine Burke pulls anyone from the Marlies in a trade at this crucial time for the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 from RunningWild in Canuck's talk - Luongo's value thread... "Interesting news from TSN insiders today: http://watch.tsn.ca/...0358#clip690358 Stating that Thomas 'might' be thinking of taking next year off. That's good news for Canucks as it's another potential goalie off the trade market this summer. They also speculated that the hiring of Bob Hartley in CGY likely means the veterans (Iggy/Kipper) won't be on the market this summer (as per Feaster). Gillis also stated that he is receiving interest from teams re: Lu. Also, Philly might be looking for a veteran goalie to back up Bryz as well - meaning another team looking for a goalie. Basically, there are potentially fewer goalies on the market this summer and more teams looking for one. Good news if Gillis wants to trade a goalie."

DeNiro Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 Luongo gets pretty much any team into the playoffs, so any team looking to make the playoffs (*cough*Toronto*cough), should covet him alot. Gillis needs to get a kings ransom for him, otherwise he should hold off on trading him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoneypuckOverlord Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 CAN ANYONE actually confirm or remember Samjam reporting the trades before it happened? We all know the David Booth trade was reported by Gillis right after we defeated Minnesota. NO f in way he could have reported that 10 minutes before it was officially announced. it's like now he is taking credit for saying he "tweeted it"? Also anyone recall the Hodgson trade being tweeted by him before it was officially announced by the NHL? I'm smelling B.S here. Also if a trade is already completed then it must a vast overpayment to get Gillis to agree to a trade before he gives other gm's a chance.

oldnews Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 You had me up until "Philly might be looking for a veteran goalie" no way Philly has both Bryz+Luongo on the team. Thats $11M in just goaltending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
