MoneypuckOverlord Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Gillis offered Howden + 2nd, trying to bump that up to a 1st. That is probably the highest offer the Canucks are going to get for Luongo, but other teams have offered a lot more (Lu won't waive). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theminister Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Dubinsky is the exact type of the player the Canucks should be adding to their existing roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pears Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Exactly.Which makes me wonder.... what would people think of a straight up deal for Brooks Laich? The Caps have Backstrom, Ribiero, Johansson, Perreault and Beagle down the middle without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dasein Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Luongo is due to have a rebound season. There's no way he can be as bad as he was last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riffraff Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 ?????? Luongo's stats weren't great, but Luongo played very well last year. I thought he played a lot better than the season prior when he had what was statistically the best season of his career. Luongo started playing more of a hybrid style by coming out aggressively once in awhile and trusting his instincts than staying back all the time like he did the year before. He also held his glove hand higher and it seemed like his glove hand was back to being what it used to be. A lot of people on this board think Luongo went down from last season, but I don't see it that way. I think people's memories have been contorted by what happened in the playoffs where Schneider took over, but Luongo was the main reason we were winning a bulk of the games we were winning this season by letting in one less goal than the other team - whereas last season, we won by scoring a bunch more than other teams.

RO8!! Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I guess thats what this board is for...to cast your opinions...whether they make sense or not ! His stats were way down which equates to a poorer season. His change in style(other than raised glove) was not effective. Glad you think he looked good. Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder !

Pears Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Which is actually 31 and 22 !! On a First placed team? hardly Stellar and GAA of 2.41 up from 2.11 when he was playing a better shutdown style. 14th and 16th in the league in goaltending stats and a dud against LA. If you had any technical knowledge about goaltending you might understand my position better but betting most of you don;t ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ossi Vaananen Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Luongo is 33 with 10 years left on his contract. Yummy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theminister Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 <p> I know a couple Caps fans who would consider Laich untouchable in the first place, let alone that they don't need a keeper with the apparent emergence of Holtby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riviera82 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 If that was Schneider's record you'd be praising him. And Luongo was anything BUT a dud in the LA series. If it weren't for him we probably would've lost the first two games by 5+ instead of 4-2 in both of them. Now take your Luongo hate glasses off and realize the fact that Luongo is an elite goalie that any team needing a starter would love to have.

cdubuya Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 So if it ends up being Howden and a 2nd and then looking at the Ballard trade; Lu, Grabner and Bernier For Ballard, Oreo and a 2nd Ouch! (though I do like the Booth and Higgins trades) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
