[Discussion] Roberto Luongo Trade Thread (Keep all discussion here)


Recommended Posts

Another poster who gets it. I for one am very glad Gillis is our GM. He takes his time to analyze. He makes excellent decisions.

I don't buy this situation as being urgent and I don't think the owners, the GM, Luongo himself not his agent Lupien are in a hurry. At the end of the day, everyone gets paid, even Schneider and his $4.000 MIL/ yr.

Schneider's new salary as an RFA is rather expensive and I see it as a compensation for NOT being the number one yet. As an RFA, he has no bargaining power except on term.

I am glad and hope it runs as such, to have a Luongo/ Schneider tandem. Schneider is NOT fully trained to take over the Canucks' number one position. Maybe another team like Columbus or NYI but not the Canucks.

The Canucks need Luongo more than Luongo needs the Canucks.

You keep beating the same old drum !! To say that Schneider is NOT fully trained to replace Luongo is nothing short of rediculous. Schneider has paid his dues and is far more technically sound than your buddy Lou. Schneids outplayed Lou last season by a wide margin. What does it take for you to see reality? You don;t acknowledge stats, have no goaltending background and disregard the voices of reason....so...what do YOU base this opinion on?

Drum?

I KNOW GOALTENDING. I RIGHT! YOU WRONG!

Sounds a little over the top...

I ackgnowledge statistics alright, especially when the body of stats presented far outweigh another body of stats in time. Luongo is stable and proven compared to Schneider's at this time.

My goaltending background is irrelevant, as is yours since you keep referring to it. If you were that good, you would A: not be constantly referring to it to prove you're right, B: your disdain for Luongo would not exist and C: you would be too busy playing goal to write on CDC.

THIS. is the voice of reason.

Now son, please do abide by they who see clear and open your mind to the possibility that you, smurf, might be VERY. wrong. and only repeat what you hear.

Management thinks Schneider is the go to guy....so...thats good enough for me....I trust in their opinion more than I trust your misguided faith !! and to think Luongo is stable is wishful thinking on your part ...lately..he has shown to be anything but...again...management disagrees with you !!

Last I checked, FLA made the playoffs because they're the best team in the weakest NHL division.

I don't see their lineup laced with superstars and if their farm were better than their current roster, why aren't they playing in the hogs already.

I call bullsh!t on all accounts. Huberdeau MIGHT... be the only legitimate future superstar. The rest, including gofer Bjugstad, are barely "stars".

And they want Edler to boot.

FLA

Luongo

Edler

Schroeder

VAN

Campbell

Versteeg

Huberdeau

Bjugstad

Gudbranson

This is a two year President trophy winning team dealing with a Southern Division de facto playoff team.

The Detroit model is very Capitalist: the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Florida must pay up for what they want: a franchise goaltender, a franchise defenseman (compared to Lidstrom on numerous occasions) and an energy center.

Fla was a good team who came a goal away from beating the eventual eastern conference champs.

Capitalist system? The rich get richer? You clearly don't know anything about capitalism.

As for your trade proposal....
