Patrick Jane Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 This is a Proposal from a Toronto Fan that thinks is overpaying for luongo and other trades. I dont know what your thoughts are, but i think hes nuts. Current lineup Kessel bozak lupul jvr grabo mccarther kuli connolly kamorov brown steckel Mcclement phanuef gunnerson liles gardnier franson Komiseriak reimer scrivens So, may issues age (leadership)? Grit? Goalie? defence? top 3 centre? How to make this possible under new salary cap limits Offence 32.7 Kessel(5.4) kadri (1.7) lupul(4.25) jvr(4.25) grabo(5.5) maccarther (3.25) hamilton(.6) Aucoin(.65) morrow (4.1) brown(.7) steckel (1.1) komarov (1.2) defence 12.4 Phaneuf(6.5) reilly (1.7) ranger(1) gardnier(1.2) ellis (1.4) kostka (.6) goalies 6 luongo (5.33) scrivens (.6) 2013 51 million 20 players signed Lupul pay increase 6mil Maccarther pay increase 3.5 mil steckel pay increase 1.5mil kadri pay increase 4 mil hamilton cycled out komarov pay increase 2mil kostka pay increase 2 mil morrow pay decrease 3mil 2014 56.3 mil Luongo for Bozak, frattin and gunnerson why? bozak and frattin will add to the failing second line and gunnerson is capable of replacing the injured defence yet toronto is overpaying 1st for kuli 1st for gunnerson ellis for liles, connolly or kuli again we are overpaying but he is stay at home defence man who is good at cycling and they get an offensive side which could fill the gap left by suter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AriGold Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Luongo for Bozak, frattin and gunnerson I would like to offer you the position as GM of the Toronto Maple Leafs if you think this is an acceptable trade for Toronto.

allkill326 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I highly doubt the trade would actually come to fruition. With Scrivens about to take over the starting goaltender spot, Toronto's value on Luongo has depreciated to the point of merely keeping him as a starter/backup, who can support Scrivens by splitting time with him. In fact, Luongo has been successful splitting game times with Schneider with Vancouver for the past two seasons. Therefore, Toronto would not afford all of the three players for simply Luongo. If this trade were to happen, since Frattin and Gunnarsson are going to replace a forward and a defenseman, Raymond and Ballard would need to be traded to Toronto(An organization which I highly doubt will take the two players, especially Ballard, with an expensive contract.) or some other organization, prior to the Luongo trade. Having both Frattin, Gunnarsson, and Raymond and Ballard would be unlikely, as salary cap takes on a toll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smashian Kassian Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I don't mind the deal actually. I would probably do it if nothing else comes around. Not sure where you are going with the rest of it but Nashville would never give up Ellis for Liles just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHL rocks Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 I don't think there will be a deal with TO. MG right fully called them out when he accused them of negotiating thru the media. I don't think the two sides like each other very much. I don't think MG wants to help TO get better. I still think there will be a deal with WSH. Edit NYI intrigues me with Nino asking for a trade. Perhaps MG can get him out of NYI, that would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
