Sedinry Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 For some reason I feel like GM MG might have gone soft. 2 years ago on Draft day he picked up a flurry of picks (Hammer + Malhotra + more) and beat others to the punch. Last season the Kings did that exact thing, but this year with so much to offer, the media is making it seem like we have nothing to give and won't get anything in return. I really hope I am wrong and that a poster will be able to say "your an idiot" once MG does something spectacular. But for now, count me on the fence for whether Lu will get traded and if we get anything in return. Sure it's great to have 2 great goalies. Guess what? 2 Goalies don't play at a time, and you only need one great goalie during the playoffs. We are in need in front and even in the back end. We still have a championship-capable team, for the next year or two at least, yet I feel MG is thinking for the future. Vancouver doesn't care too much about the future IMO, Vancouver wants a cup, and it wants it now. We could get rid of Lu's salary and get Parise or Nash or some superstar, if we can all dream big, why can't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Karlsson Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 I have the same feeling, Gillis better make atleast one trade during the draft for a player who will actually have some impact on our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keslerian one Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I think MG wants to make a "hockey trade" whereas Burke wants to dump Komisarek on us. Hence the hold up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thehamburglar Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 I dont think trading for sake of trades and making fans excited should be done. Be smart, which Gillis has been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
