DeNiro Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Now everyone will come on here and say how much they love Lu and they'll miss him, when really it's BS. Most of the people on here couldn't wait to get rid of him. Well now you got your wish. Time to rejoice I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primal Optimist Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 So Cory is loved as much as Luongo was when he first came here. Any bets as to how long it takes before fans start tearing him down? My guess is he'll be gone in 3 years if he struggles at all in the playoffs, due to ungrateful fans, and overly critical media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
:D Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Hay do you guys have any more tweets that you want to post 4-5 times? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyville88 Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 I know this is typical of a Canucks fan but now that Luongo basically has one foot out the door, I'm starting to freak out a bit. Watching some of these tribute videos that people have put together makes me realize how much he's been through with this Canucks organization. From the highest of highs to the lowest of lows. Hard to picture him tending goal anywhere but here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt.Awesome Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Perfect now trade him. This $ makes him very valuable to other teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Cory signs...We trade Lu for some solid players, sign Schultz, maybe get another 2nd liner. Would be a hell of a summer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Femme.Canuck Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 For those wondering if strombone1 is Luongo, Jeff Paterson tweeted this out: "Gillis asked to confirm that @strombone1 is Luongo. GM said he could not confirm that, but said Luongo is witty" Take it for what you will. That being said, great deal for Schneider. He worked his tail off for it and will prove, in the long run, that he is worth every penny. As for Luongo, I'm not sure what to think. Is the era over, will Gillis make something happen? Who knows. But, in his time here, he was most definitely a helluva goaltender and however which way it goes, I'm glad he was a Canuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RunningWild Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Initial thoughts, good timing and contract by Gillis. Was concerned he get a long term contract and there's always a possibility he can't live up to it (you never know). 3 yrs will give him time to prove himself as starter, then get paid if he's earned it. $4M is good cap hit considering they've bought 2 yrs of UFA & compared to Rasks $3.5M and no UFA yrs bought out. No offer sheets for the suckas who thought about it (Heres lookin' at u Burke) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
six-0h-four- Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Sick! Schneiderman is bringing us a cup, I GUARANTEE you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UFCanuck Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 It's a business, Luongo had his chance to bring us the cup. We didnt win it in 6 years with him, we had 4 amazing teams in that period. Time to give Schneider a shot to do what Luongo couldn't, win the 7th game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stick-in-Rink Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Looks like this is an end to the Luongo era with all the speculation that surrounds him being traded. I'm seriously going to miss you Lou, great goalie and an even greater guy. Here's to new beginnings and let's treat Schneider the way Luongo should've been treated during his whole tenure with the Canucks. We have a real star goal-tender with us now and it's time we treat him with respect and learn our lesson from last time. I was hoping the term would be a bit longer, but at least we can let Schneider test the waters without being tied down to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Singh Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 guess luo is gone. Oh well. geuss im going to the panthers forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
17's heart&hustle Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 personally...i'd rather have luongo reason is because i think the canucks play better in front of schneider because he doesn't have as much experience in big games.. as long as the canucks play well in front of luongo i think the team would be better... you people may get mad at me for saying this but this is my opinion..
