[Article] Botchford: 1-2 mystery teams in on Lu before CBA expiration and one is rumord to be the OILERS!?

[TOMapleLaughs]

Nope.

[Lonny_Bohonos_14]

I would want one of Musil or Klefbom involved in any trade. Plus Paajarvi and top six forward.

So something like:

Luongo for Klefbom/Musil + Paajarvi + Hemsky

*Should be noted that I would only trade a premium player to a division opponent for a clear overpayment.

[Stefan]

I didn't mean all of them for Luongo

A combination of them was preferred

[Kesler's Nose]

Gagner or Hemsky, or for a first round draft pick and Paajarvi. No way they give us one of those players plus a 1st. Also for all of you insinuating that we could get Eberle are hilarious.

EDIT: If we could package Raymond in the deal, that would also be satisfactory. He's from Edmonton, if there's one place he could shine besides here? It would be there with all their young players.

[VanCityScout]

interesting

but unlikely

[Sharpshooter]

Botchford is an idiot....but not as idiotic as the thoughts of some posters around what we would or could get back in return for Lu, so far in this thread.

[Boudrias]

For sure Hemsky. They can put him with the Twins and they can call it the 'Puff Line'!

The article was already posted in the /topic/333538-rumoursreports-roberto-luongo-trade-thread-keep-all-news-here/page__st__30#entry10914680">Rumours/Reports Luongo thread over in Trades, Rumours and Signings.

I'm really hoping the other mystery team is the Caps.

[kacvan]

I'd consider the trade if it was for Eberle(sp) and RNH and a pick.

[Cromeslab]

Only if R.N.H. Comes here and I don't think the Oil is that stupid.....so no.

[Dogbyte]

I don't buy the division thing. So that's 4 extra points a year we're worried about possibly losing. The only reason it's not done is that GM's are reminded of it more often if they play against them lots during the year.

[Ossi Vaananen]

I want to see Hartikainen in a Nucks jersey so bad. Him and Gagner would be a reasonable return.

[CanucksFanMike]

Edmonton is bad enough that if we traded Lui there it wouldn't matter in terms of our division

[87Crosby]

imagine Gagner Harkitnen, and a 1st whitch turns into nathan Mckinnon

[Tortorella's Rant]

Oilers were probably offering Hemsky + 1st or Gagner + 1st.

[WeDreamOfStanley]

Hahahaha!

Eberle or RNH for Luongo?

Holy smokes my fellow canuck fans sure provide some ridiculous ideas to laugh at! Might as well be dreamers hey?? Gives us even more to complain about when impossible things don't happen, no matter how bad we want them to.

[CanuckRow]

Trading Luongo within the divsion just wont happen unless Edmonton overrpayed, which they wont do.

[canucks_dynasty]

lol @ Hemsky. Try harder, Oilers.

[Burnsey]

Oilers obviously have some great young talent but having Luongo added to their team is a huge improvement for them and they would be close to becoming a contender. Lets not help them too much. If we got a good return it could be interesting but personally I just don't see it happening.
