HockeyHobo73 Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I think these articles and news stories about luongo being a "salary dump" are ridiculous.. I've heard the words "mammoth contract" thrown around a lot, when the fact is his cap hit is VERY comparable to other top goalies plus the front loaded part has been paid by van (mostly)... its almost like the Toronto Sports Network is trying to de-value luongo, when reality is that elite goaltenders are rarely traded for small returns And since everyone loves throwing proposals out - Luo, Raymond, 1st for Schenn and 1st Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrippledCanuck Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Luongo does have a mammoth of a contract, But lets face it he will probably not play for the entire 10 years, 1.6mil x 1 yr and 1mil x 2 years - he isnt going to fulfill that part of the contract I would bet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aladeen Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 This again was well known way before Bob said it.Bob never has anything new to say, he tells the hockey world what is known and he is NOT needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aur0ra Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 Burke's hockey career will be over if he doesn't find a top shelf goalie this summer. He'd be a retard to not have Loungo on his team before July 1st, so he has some financial certainty leading up to free agency. Same with the 'nucks, we need Lou gone so we've got money to sign Garrison, Schultz, Edler, Burrows, Schneider, a 3rd line center, and whatever else.
