oldnews Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Luongo - "there's a lot of stuff going on".... hence the heightened rumour-mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiFiclub Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I love the timing of the Luongo interview. I wouldn't be surprised if this is being orchestrated by Gillis to try and put pressure on Tallon. Luongo basically just announced that he would be willing to go to any team that has a chance to win. Which pretty much opens the door to alot of teams who are still looking for a number 1. So pretty much this says to Tallon, pay up, or we'll be exploring other options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trebreh Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Luongo to Chicago = They already hate him there. First bad game he has they would be running him out of town. Not happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMantooth Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I would LOVE to see Luongo in a Hawks uni, just to see the reaction of Blacksucks fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73 Percent Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 They haven't had a legit goalie in quite some time. I have a feeling they would get over it quickly when he churns out 35+ wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KSniper88 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Guys I know things can change but yesterday TSN reported that the only team Canucks are talking back and forth to is Florida currently, no talk right now with Toronto and Chicago was not even mentioned.

EvoLu7ioN Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 That DM conversation would be easy to fake, he could make a twitter account with Gervais' name and avatar and DM himself. As for the news, I don't see how any of that proves he has inside info. Some of it is convincing, but when you consider the volume of information he's putting out there he's bound to get some right. With regards to Parise and Suter, he said many, many times before they signed that signings were imminent with Pitt and Det, the popular speculated destinations for them. It wasn't until he had a twitter fight with Wild beat writer Michael Russo that he covered his tracks. I'll ask you this: Why would some insider do this? What does he have to gain? Why would he risk his contacts and current and future job opportunities for this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pasific Coluseum Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Its only a matter of time before we see Luongo being traded to Florida. However we're not getting Gudbranson. Versteeg, Ellerby and Upshall are all realistic options. Theodore too if he decides to waive his NTC to come to Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Franz Liszt Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 These are the trades I am hoping for: With Florida: Luongo+ for Matthias, Versteeg, Bjugstad and/or 1st With Toronto: Luongo+ for Lupul, Colborne & 2nd / 1st & 3rd With Chicago: Luongo+ for Hjalmarsson, Stalberg & 1st / 2nd & 3rd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustJokinen! Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Believe me, I was skeptical at first too, but the evidence is too overwhelming for it to be complete fluke. Regarding Gervais, I suspected that too, or that perhaps it was photoshopped, but Bruno Gervais is following him, that cannot be pure coincidence. Yes he did speculate Parise and Suter had interest in Pitts and DET respectively, and I believe that was the case. According to Pierre Lebrun Detroit thought they had Suter, so I think this is a case of a last day decision by both those guys. And regards to simply getting some things right due to the volume of rumors, that just doesn`t seem to be the formula for this guy. How does one predict Jagr to Dallas or Burish to SJ. These came out of absolute left field, and the guy only mentioned 1 or 2 other teams with interest. And if that still is not enough to convince you, how do you explain him calling Steve Ott to Buffalo for Derek Roy days before the trade. Out of the 600+ players in the league he gets that one 100%, the odds of randomly selecting two players and having them traded for one another in the next few days are astronomical. Honestly, I have no clue why the hell he is doing this. Perhaps he simply enjoys being the bearer of news? But for me, the evidence is just too consistent to be chance.
