[Discussion] Roberto Luongo Trade Thread 5.0


Recommended Posts

Tambellini can play both wings. The fact that we have Weise as a third line winger shows that we don't have as much depth at wing as we thought.

Tambellini has shown that he can play as a top 6 in short stints, Ebbett hasn't. That's why he would be much more valuable to us right now.

Plus his ability in the shootout could end up winning us some games down the road.

Yea, thanks could had used you earlier.

Even if Toronto did make Gardiner available in a possible Luongo deal, we wouldn't necessarily need another LH D-man. I mean Ballard could of course be moved or bought out, but making Gardiner the centre piece while we are lacking in secondary scoring becomes counter intuitive. Anyways, I already wrote a lengthy post on why a TOR deal wouldn't work. Might as well continue the WAS speculation.

But word is Neuvirth has been solid tonight, just because a team is losing it doesn't mean it's the goalie's fault. That's how we got in this situation to begin with!

#NJD Really good period so far for Michal Neuvirth. Guess Oates made the right decision in going back to him tonight

And you can't fault him for the 2-0 goal when it's on a 5 on 3:

#NJD Devils convert on the 5-on-3 to make it 2-0. Elias puts back Zidlicky's rebound for a PPG

neuvirth or whatever his name is from the capitals had a great game which is fine and everything, but he had a rough game before and if the caps do not go out and get a good goaltender that is the way it is going to be for them- some nights good goaltending, some nights not so much and if they lose when their goaltender plays well, then they have waisted one of precious few times their goaltender will give them a chance to win.

agree....we dont need gardiner

we need a hard nosed stay at home d man (if we're talking d, and that isn't even a big priority bc we have Vandermeer in the minors)

we need a center for the 3rd line who can sub as a number 2 and a top knotch offensive prospect coming back

not sure why people keep suggesting trading our depth to not fill a hole but just create more of a problem?

trade lou for some young goalie how about that? same logic lol....grey matter...use it
