CrippledCanuck Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 "@Aportzline: Told by very good source #Canucks G Roberto Luongo has - to this point -- declined to waive no-trade clause to go to #Blackhawks or #Leafs." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Toronto just got burned Edmonton style. Luongo probabaly doesn't want to play with the dirty Keith. Plus he doesn't want Toews to expose him for what he really is. Most importantly he doesn't want to play with a rat like Bolland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JLumme Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 i'd do luongo for brian campbell forget prospects and picks. if gillis wants a "hockey trade" this makes sense. campbell is same age as luongo, signed to big contract and upon arrival picks up were erhoff left off on pp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kassian Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 This can only be good news...more hostile situation, more likely hood of a trade to go down. I don't want Lu gone, I just want this goalie situation resolved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrippledCanuck Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I lol'ed Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie End of day, Luongo has to make sure he doesn't end up in CHI...with AHL Wolves. Right now, tho, FLA and TOR think VAN asking price too high. https://twitter.com/#!/TSNBobMcKenzie/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casualty Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 That does make sense... I like it. Campbell is a good d-man who probably has a few good years left. You may be on to something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neversummer Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Luongo for Jovo? Or here is the menu, take your pick: http://capgeek.com/charts.php?Team=16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hedman Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 he is a number one goalie but he is being a douche about this... he wants to be traded but he is giving MG limited moves... maybe luongo has more loyalty to Florida and maybe he is trying to help Tallon give less for him so luongo and his new team will be winning in the trade and helping Luongo in the long run Luongo is being such a dick about this i just can't believe it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neversummer Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 ThisFlorida is rebuilding, they have Markstrom and they know MG is limited on who he can trade Luongo too, we are not getting a top prospect out of Florida.a big contract for a big contract trade seems reasonable, plus the Canucks could use a good offensive Dmen like Campbell to fill the void that was been vacent ever since Ehroff left.

Li'l Fra Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Roberto is not the one being lame here. He signed that contract not too long ago. He promised the Canucks the rest of his career and here we are chasing him out of town because we finally found a backup who can play? He has every right to choose his next destination. He already chose Vancouver. He's the jilted party with the NTC. We don't need to clear cap space to bring in a power forward. We'll have a tonne of room if the cap goes up to $70 million like its supposed to. And this only helps IF Schneider is ready to be the #1. Let's just say he struggles this year, like most youngsters handed the reins to a team. What if that costs us 10 wins and a berth in the playoffs? While there is no doubt most of us believe in our red-headed, golden boy, he is far from a proven #1. We already have one of those: Luongo!

RUPERTKBD Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 Luongo was elite before the Chicago meltdowns, he is now a Vezina RUNNER UP, a Stanley Cup FINALIST. and of course NWD Champion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heretic Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 There is that little thing about the Olympic Gold Medal as well, but hey, what's that compared to what James Reimer, Scott Clemmensen and Jakob Markstrom bring to the table.... Of course he's within his rights to stipulate his preferred destination, but if he truly wants out of Vancouver, he's making it virtually impossible. As it sits right now, he's "within his rights" to ride the pine in Vancity, or as Bob McKenzie suggests, earn his big bucks in A Wolves uni. Lets see what they think at the deadline when both are on the playoff bubble (and it's about to burst). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
