kloubek Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Burkie talks a lot of talk. You *know* he is not comfortable with his goaltending situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enforcer22 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 After Burkie pulled that stunt with the Sedins, which we should be a mill and a first overall pick richer because of (thanks Buttman). I think Gilles should give it to him proper, with no reach around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Doctor Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Luongo Record since Being in a Canucks Uniform (6 Seasons - 386 Games) 224-115-41 = 489 Points Entire Leafs Revolving Door Record... over the 6 Season (492 Games) Jonas Gustavsson James Reimer Ben Scrivens Jean-Sebastien Giguere Vesa Toskala Joey MacDonald Curtis Joseph Martin Gerber Justin Pogge Andrew Raycroft Scott Clemmensen 212-210-70 = 494 Points You tell me if Burke is not desperate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number1Pick Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Look, if we're not gonna get that #5 pick, this trade won't be done until mid summer. There's no rush at all If MG gets his players during FA to fill in the cracks, there's no need to trade for a Luke Schenn or Jake Gardiner if he can get the right players for his team.

Moonshinefe Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 James Reimer and Ben Scrivens as their one two punch eh? It'll be another short season for Toronto if Burke is going to leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdubuya Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 People here are so stupid. They expect this crazy return for Luongo from Toronto. This article makes perfect sense. Reimer has proven he can be a successful no 1 goalie. He lead a crappier leafs team to a 20-10 record in his rookie season. He got concussed last season and it was a setback but that doesn't mean Burke is gonna start trading their lottery pick and blue chip dman for a 33 year old goalie. I'm not bashing Lu or saying he won't improve the leafs cause he will. But this article makes perfect sense. It doesn't seem like a "bluff" or even usual hockey speak. Burke is about as truthful and candid as they come. If they can get Lu for cheap they probably will but I suspect Gilly won't give him up for that. Hopefully we sign Cory to a reasonable deal or another team makes a serious play for one of our goalies before the draft. If Cory gets a lucrative long term offer sheet any bargaining power we thought we had goes out the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keslerian one Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Imagine Luongo goes to another eastern conference team, helps them make the playoffs, and leafs fail once again next season. Burke will be run out of town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Notice how the Leafs media come out with a new article everyday trying to devalue Luongo? They want him badly, and Gillis knows it. Burke can say all he wants through the media, the bottom line is, pay up, or lose your number 1 goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ABurrows14 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 i still think that it is definitely possible that Lou doesn't get traded and Schneider does. Burke and MG could easily have their ego's collide and a deal does not get done as a result. If Columbus is interested in Schneider and they are willing to give up a lot (say a 2nd, or Nash in a deal), MG would be more than happy to keep Lou with Lack as a backup and deal Schneider, as would I if we get overpaid by Columbus. I've been crying for Lou to get traded but I'm starting to think I'd like assets from Columbus back more than what TO is willing to give us. Plus, we'd still have Lou so... ahh the suspense is killing me!!! I just don't know!!!??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUPERTKBD Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 His value seems to be all over the place. What do you think he will return in trade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABurrows14 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Cory is a RFA, correct? It's possible Burke tries an offer sheet that Vancouver can't match to acquire Schneider. Burke knows Vancouver can't have $9mil cap hit stuck in both goalies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dorrcoq Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 It's all posturing to lower what he has to give up. Why waste your time with endless speculation? It either happens or it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABurrows14 Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I think he will return a high draft pick, highly touted prospect, top 4 defenseman or a top six forward. If Burke, or any other GM won't give him that, I think Gillis will hang on to Luongo and see how desperate teams are at the trading deadline.uxury of pat Of course, by then, the price just might be higher....
