sampy Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Dreger is just trying help his brother in law out. There's no way Burke can go into next season with Reimer and Scrivens unless he's going for another lottery. Hopefully MG is going to be patient and make Burke sweat it out. Luongo and Schneids is an upgrade on 20 teams goaltending and there is no goalies available, MG holds all the cards. If there is no market for Lu, trade Schneids, Lack is not too far behind, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmo2337 Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Easy explanation...we have the cap space because Kesler will be on LTIR... nothings happening at least till Xmas... We don't have to make any trades right now in goal...we have one of the best goal tandems in the league! What we might need instead is a center and dman upgrade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wh!stler R!der Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Honestly i forget what that deal was, other than it was 90% done almost a month ago and that 'he broke the story' although Lu to TO talk has been going on since April. Jesus this off-season seems LONG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I laugh at your proposals, because they are funny. IMO Luongo's contract is the main reason he will not be moved. We will see who is correct I hope to god its you and so does Gillis. But like i said before I dont live in a dream world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Burke on if they can’t land a goalie, “We are prepared to go forward on that basis,” Burke said. “If we can upgrade at the goaltending position, and at a reasonable price, we’ll do it. But we are prepared [to go with Reimer-Scrivens]. I believe in James Reimer. He’s young, he’s athletic, I believe in this kid. If we have to start like that, we will.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Strome Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I've never once thought his value was that high. I was always hovering around Toronto's 2nd rounder, a prospect and a roster player. Like: Franson, Colborne & TOR 2nd FOR Luongo, Raymond & Tanev. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Li'l Fra Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I don't think this deserves its own thread, so I'll just say it here and unburden myself: Damien Cox is in IDJIT!~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boudrias Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 Ok I'll get with the program. Luongo to Toronto for Komisarek - straight up. Sorry, I just can't take Cox or Dreger seriously, certainly not on the Luongo matter. The Panthers have 40.5 million in contracts at the moment - 30 million dollars of space under the projected cap. Tallon was free to go out and spend 7+ million on Campbell - they made the playoffs - they are a franchise on the upswing - I'm sure Luongo for two young players and a roster player would only add a couple million in cap. I don't think the problem with signing Garrison is a lack of money or cap space - I think he is looking to test the market or go somewhere of choice.

oldnews Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 I was making a weak attempt at sarcasm. TO propoganda doesn't impress me. The market for a goalie of Lou's quality is substantial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCammer Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 There are already so many threads on Luongo, leafs.... etc.. etc.. etc... Why not keep it all in the same thread. IMO we don't need another thread for every so called hockey analyst's tweet on the subject. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Vintage Canuck- Posted June 21, 2012 Share Posted June 21, 2012 @SportsnetSpec Chicago is in goalie market, but won't touch Luongo. Contract too much, is primary reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
