DIBdaQUIB Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 trading a franchise player especially in a market like this is going to cause a media ... even if he says nothing, and waiving his NTC so they can trade him wasn't best for the team?

Mustapha Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 the way he was treated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggins Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Yeah you're right. I should have been cheering him when he was giving up 8 goal stinkers in the playoffs. Guess that makes me a bad fan Face it. Sometimes Lou is gold. Other times he can stink up the arena. The problem is, he tends to stink up the arena more often in the playoffs. The Canucks were beat up and tired by the middle of the SCF, but instead of making a big save, Lou folded like a paper doll. I don't hate the guy, I don't even know him. I do think he had his chances, and now it's time for him to go. Hit the road Jack, and don't you come back no more. Interesting statistic: Every team that has won the Stanley Cup has done it without Roberto Luongo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nuck nit Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Mike has given out one long front loaded contract. That's it. Other than the Sundin contract, which didn't ever hurt us, which contract are you complaining about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pouria Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 That doesn't automatically mean Luongo has the starting job back. Schneider will be the #1 guy for the majority of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Screw all these Canucks fans who want Luongo gone. Can't accept the fact that Luongo carried us throughout the playoffs and still somehow takes all the blame for the loss. I want Lui to stay.

16*17*1*14 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 that quote is blatantly saying that shneider is starting you moron..had it been luongo he would have made a point to say that luongo has been our starting goalie for 6 years and will remain so until something other than is confirmed.

WiDeN Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Google it and you will find a whole lot of displeasure.I am not the only one that sees the ridiculousness of what was done? Yeah,the one front loaded contract that he should have never given along with the Sundin nightmare contract.Not sure how it helped anybody but Mats and his bride to be pay for their wedding. There are other contracts and signings but those two are monumental goof ups. The 'habit' I was referring to was a character issue and not contractual. If Gillis had not created and signed such a contract with Luo we might be able to afford to keep him now and this whole drama Gillis and /or the .org created could have been placed into some things positive. That's how Gillis set it up so let's see how it turns out.Good thing Luo is a good sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
