Latest on the Panthers/Luongo Saga

Okay so here's the latest after speaking to a source last night.

The Panthers have agreed to move Nick Bjugstad to the Canucks IF they include Schroeder and a 2nd. Deathly afraid of losing any depth, HOWEVER a Luongo deal looks more and more unlikely as the days go by as Gillis hasn't even spoken to Luongo or his agent recently and a few teams that were interested (Chicago, NY Islanders, and believe it or not Ottawa) have dropped negotiations with Gillis because they're tired of waiting on Gillis and his high asking price. Gillis wants whoever takes Luongo to absorb more cap in Ballard.

Further with the Panthers, after losing out on Wellwood they feel 100% confident moving forward with Huberdeau in the lineup next season.

I'd take Campbell only if his cap hit wasn't so high. But on the positive side

Hamhuis - Bieksa

Garrison - Campbell

Edler - Tanev

Those are all #1 pairings. I don't think Florida will want to take Ballard back though.

I would like to see a deal somewhere along the lines of Luongo, Schroeder and a 2nd for Bjugstad, Ellerby and a player like Matthias or Goc. Florida has a surplus of centres and Ellerby seems to have fallen down their depth chart. I think it fills a couple of needs now and for the future. Bjugstad is the future while Ellerby and Matthias/Goc are for now. Ellerby would be near the top of the depth chart for Vancouvers defensemen prospects and we could insert either centre into the line up immediately.
