DeNiro Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Pros to getting Versteeg: He's a right winger Clutch playoff performer Good cap hit Can put up good points He's a cup winner Cons to getting Versteeg: He's another small winger He's a douche He's a former Blackhawk He can't rap There are definitely worse options...

CanucksJay Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Anyone else a little concerned about what Howson got in return for Nash after ALL this waiting? Looks like we might be disappointed in the return for Lu... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timberz21 Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 This Nash trade just reduce the value of Roberto Luongo IMO If Nash couldn't pry Kreider, Hagelin or Stepan out of NY, what make you believe Gillis will pry Gudbransson, Huberdeau ou Bjugstad out of Floride. Maybe, Bjugstad since he hasn't played NHL yet. I didn't think we would get one of these guy before, now i'm pretty much certain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noheart Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Stop worring about Florida it has been well documented in the past few weeks that FLA has basically stopped talking to Gillis Time for all you to pull players from other teams out of your a$$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeNiro Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I'm kinda worried. Let's hope Gillis doesn't pull a Howson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCRenegade Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I would think Washington is probably quite happy with Holtby. They already have Ovechkin's lifelong deal, why would they want another albatross? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeBossy Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Honestly I am ok with a prospect and a 1st rd pick for Lou as it frees up some cap space. Thats said Schenn and a 1st looks pretty damn good right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaBestPlaceOnEarth Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 I think that Columbus getting what they did for Nash validates Vancouver's demands for Luongo. Lu is a guy who has had way more success in his career than Nash, playoff experience, he plays a more crucial position. His contract is similar in some ways but not as onerous, like Nash there's a leverage and marketplace issue driving down his value. I feel like in the aftermath of this Nash deal that any Luongo trade needs to bring back something along the lines of what this or the Mike Richards trade did, anything less, we can afford to keep Luongo, we can stand pat.

Hafizzle Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 That's the gamble really. If your initial demands are too high and you don't budge, you can turn teams away until you're only left with one. Then you basically have to take whatever they're willing to offer. Depending on whether we can sign Doan or not, I would be happy with a good prospect and a pick. I mean, Nash got Erixon and a 1st plus two roster players. Surely Luongo can at least fetch the prospect and the pick. Bjugstad and a 1st would be great to me.

Darth Kane Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 Now that we've seen what Columbus got in return from Nash what does that do for your expectations for what Luongo will bring back? The situations may be similar, but I think the Canucks are in a more difficult position when in comes to trading. Do you think Luongo will bring back more, less or about the same?

Canucksh Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 To see the talk from other GMs saying the price for Nash was too steep, and now to see what they got for him..... how could they consider that steep? Makes me wonder what the GMs think is steep for Luongo..... Luongo obviously doesn't have as much trade value as Nash... so its not looking so good. I would have thought Luongo could get something around the same value as what Columbus just got for Nash, now it makes me think they aren't going to be getting much at all. I mean.... Dubinsky and Anisimov are 30-40 points per year players, which is worse than what Raymond got a couple years ago.... 1st round pick from Rangers isn't all that great. Erixon has only played in 18 NHL games so far also, so its hard to say how well he will be, he wasn't that high of a draft pick either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
