palindrom Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 What about a trade around Luongo for Brodeur + ? Brodeur had a shootout today, he is one of the most playoff proven goalie in history and he made it to the Stanley cup finals just last year. Even at his age, Brodeur fit well in Vancouver windows of opportunity to win the cup. He still have it in the tank until his contract expire, And even better, i know it had been said countless time before in all our Schneider to New Jersey proposal (Remember these Parise for Schneider proposal?), but i have to say it again : Brodeur could be a great mentor for Schneider. I know Brodeur have been in NJ all his career, but the fact that he reached the UFA status prove that he must be open to other possibility. So what do you guys think ?

AriGold Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Brodeur just shutout the Flyers for his 120th shutout. He is the face of the Devils and a living legend in net. The price you would have to pay to get him to leave would be astronomical. He will retire a Devil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AriGold Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 is not giving Luongo for him paying astronomically ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palindrom Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 There is significant value in a player whos about to retire that has played his entire career with the same organization. You don't trade a guy who has done this for your team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 But you let him become a UFA on 1st July without signing him before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bd71 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I thought the whole point of moving Luongo was so Schneider could be the starter. In what world will Martin Brodeur backup anyone? He is easily one do the greatest golatenders of all time and he is coming off another Stanley Cup finals appearance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allkill326 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 This is probably, by far, the most preposterous trade proposal ever read in CDC. I'm sorry, but AriGold is correct. Marty is close to being a priceless individual for the Devils. Luongo may be an all-time hero for the Canucks, but what Marty has done for the organization as well as the entire league is astronomical, compared to what Luongo has done in whole.

DownUndaCanuck Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Brodeur is the best goalie to ever play the game. Luongo is probably the 2nd best active goalie, but he'll end up a solid 200 wins and 50 shutouts short of wherever Brodeur finishes. Besides, Brodeur is probably done after this season, why bother?

Super_Canuck Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 OP, are you serious or just being stupid? The whole problem we have here is that we have 2 number one goalies, so you solve that by trading one of them. So then why the F would you bring in another number one goalie? You'd be back at square one you moron. You will have solved nothing but created even a bigger problem. Schneider doesn't need another mentor, he's ready now! The guy doesn't need his hand held his whole life. This is just so damn dumb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashian Kassian Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Marty is the best of all-time. Ari is right, this is a completely different scenerio, this isn't the situation Mats Sundin was in a few years ago, this isn't the situation Jarome Iginla is in right now, this isn't one of those scenerio's. This is the greatest player of all time in his position, who has played his entire career with the same organization and has been unbelievably loyal and the loyalty has been mutual (Marty not having an agent till last summer tells u something about his loyalty to the Devils) This is an entirely different situation than we have ever seen really, Broduer is probably one of the most untouchable players in the league, no chance this happens.

Master Mind Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 No way. They wouldn't trade the best goalie of all time. They show respect towards the best goalie to ever play for them... something Vancouver should learn to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Merely an opinion. Stating a proposal, involving a trade of Brodeur is an utter disrespect towards the future Hall-of-Famer, and therefore, I find the proposal utterly ludicrous. Technically, trading a healthy, 33-year-old goalie for a soon-to-retire goaltender is not a viable option for any General Manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
