stonecoldstevebernier Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 This is hardly news, has anybody been high on Steve Bernier for the past four years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 It wouldn't matter because Lombardi has made it pretty clear he has no intention of moving Bernier. I'd say Florida are the front runners for Luongo - 1 - they have far more attractive young assets and can afford to part with a few 2 - they don't have a stubborn, lowballing GM 3 - most likely Luongo would prefer to go there 4 - their starter Theodore has only a year left at 1.5 cap hit 5 - their prospect Markstrom is only 22 and injury prone 6 - the Leafs suck and should continue to.

Brick Tamland Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Is there a reason Lu wouldn't be a perfect fit for the oilers. He was a childhood fan after all. Maybe Dubynk is NHL ready soon but you'd think hed be an ideal goalie candidate for a highly skilled but experience lacking and mistake prone team. It's not like they wouldn't have the pieces to acquire him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WiDeN Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Yeah, I don't really like the returns we would get from Toronto. Florida could be good though. I like to mention that Schneider to Winnipeg might be a good deal. I would prefer to keep Schneider, but the return and flexibility to trade him wherever we like is attractive. I'm not saying Schneider for Kane, I am thinking Wheeler. Blake Wheeler would make Kesler and Booth look great. He could also play with the Sedins (who couldn't?). I think there are more teams interested in Luongo than is being speculated, and I think there are a whole bunch of teams that will/have inquired about Schneider.

allkill326 Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 Umm, the reason is obvious... he has to approve the team he is traded to and there is NO WAY he goes to Edmonton.

oldnews Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 What Toronto is high on are delusions of grandeur. What they want only matters relative to what they are wiling to give up - otherwise, the rest of us don't give a dung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Kassassin Train Posted June 19, 2012 Author Share Posted June 19, 2012 I find it amusing the logic being parlayed out of Toronto (and from other parroting 'experts') that everyone knows the Canucks are likely to move Luongo, therefore his trade value is lower. And really who cares what McLean (or Kyrpeos for that matter think) - these guys speculation are not worth much attention. Patently obvious counterpoint - everyone knows Toronto desperately needs a legitimate starting goaltender - therefore, they can try to lobby via the media, and posture all they want, meanwhile Florida will swoop in a do the wise thing, which is make a hockey trade. That would be sweet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bleednucksblue Posted June 19, 2012 Share Posted June 19, 2012 I don't get all the Schenn hate. I think he would be the perfect partner for Edler. Big and strong, good defensively (as good as you can be on Toronto) and RHS. Plus he's much cheaper than Weber and still has a lot of room to grow as he's only 22. It would also give us more options on the back end, saying putting him with Hammer together to form a pretty good shutdown unit. Additionally, being on the same team as Hammer would be a big boost for him, as he can learn from one of the most underrated (imo) dman in the league.
