chrisbanks Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 it doesnt matter .. we have the biggest group of over paid Defence in the league this team right now is in need of 5 or 6 buy outs .. i wonder if we can trade for other teams buy outs? id trade luongo for a draft pick and a buy out at this point.

NUCKS4CUP 28 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 PHA Schneider VAN Couturier Simmonds BOS Edler VAN Lucic Scoring solved. Change coaching staff, gain Ballard. With Tanev and Corrado the Canucks are set for the future but still need a T1D. No, Hamhuis is NOT a T1D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canucks_Hockey_101 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I'm 100% for it... no one here supports lui more than I do. Its just too late. Cory shuda been traded at the 2011 or 2012 deadline... our core needed an infusion from a Cory trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robongo Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Our core doesn't need a refusion, it needs to be blown up. I am not cool with being the new Calgary Flames, and the sooner we realize that is what we are, the better. We simply dont have the assets or a competent enough GM to revamp the top six forwards. Blow her up and be done with it, get some good young blood on this team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LouieB Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Doesn't make any difference because the problem was the team in front of the goalies, not the tenders. Trade the goalie that will get the best return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riviera82 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I see 5 goals in one game. What do you see? Regular season performance? Now turn around and ask the same question: why the hate on Luongo all this time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFastOne21 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I'm in favor of these moves, but you're crazy if you think Edler alone would grab Lucic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCammer Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Simple answer. Because most of us have seen Luongo have similarly bad or worse performances many times in the playoffs as Schneider did last night. You make excuses for Luongo's sub-standard play over years of playoffs, but Cory has 1 bad game and you want to hang him? Get out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcoasting Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 One bad game??? He has a 20% winning percentage in playoff games.That simply isn't good enough. You can't seem to get it that the team has performed poorly not just the goalies. And now you can't handle the fact all the arguments you have used against Luongo are being targeted at Schneider. The third period meltdown last night was one of the worst goalie performances I have ever seen. However, someone with some hockey acumen realizes that despite the incredibly weak goals let in there were some defensive breakdowns that allowed the opportunities to occur.

centurion Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Like many have said on this forum - goaltending hasn't really been the issue here. Trade the goalie who can give you the most value. There are other issues besides goaltending that needs addressing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westcoasting Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Never too late... Luongo is still Canucks property. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesler's Nose Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 The bottom line is Lu definitely has what it takes to deal with the scrutiny and pressure from the fans and media and still stand his ground while delivering a good performance in net, as he has shown everyone during these playoffs. Lu haters don't have too much to say now that Schneider dropped the ball- as Lu has done in the past as well. It happens to the best of us and the responsibility doesn't lie solely on the goaltender, as people have always seemed to promote here in Vancouver. (Doh!) However, I think Lu's loyalty and dedication have been tarnished by the fans of the city and that he will be forced to go else where. If he could stay and move past this and forgive the fans of Vancouver for turning their back on him, than I'd be all for trading Schneider instead... We could obviously get a better return for him, we could perhaps acquire a star forward to play with the twins (or Kes) which we need with out a doubt in my opinion. I believe we should ship out both Booth and Ballard as well, it would be legendary to try and make a trade for a player like Shea Weber; for Edler and whatever else it might take. Hell, I'd throw in a packaged deal with Kassian or which ever prospect they desired and two first round draft picks if it got it done. Only untouchables to me would be the Sedins, Kesler, perhaps Burrows and one of our goalies. I highly doubt Hamhuis would go back after leaving anyways and Garrison and Bieksa have NTC's.. So they'd most likely be off the table. EDIT: We just may need a new head coach as well and possibly a new GM. (Depending on how MG handles the off season) Lindy Ruff and Brian Burke come to mind.. Either way after our playoff run is officially over, I expect some changes to be made. Two first round exits is weighing heavily on my conscience, I really don't want our window of opportunity to win a Cup to be closed.. This team is too good for that! I hope something with significance happens soon, it's high time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcon45ca Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 100% agree. I don't understand what AV was thinking playing a guy who hasn't played in 13 games over a guy who has been the best player on the ice for the canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuretoMogilny Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 I would just say, this game tells the Lou haters or the Cory lovers that it is not easy to be a goalie, especially behind a team who play like crap. Its just a bad day for Cory, worst decision by AV, and suck it Lou haters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuretoMogilny Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Down 3-0 you need to let Schneider learn. This series is over, let him learn. He is our future and this is his team. I wish Roberto was staying and he was starting as much as I love Schneider and am happy he is back from injury. We are lucky to have them both but for the future this is Schneiders team and we will die this season with him in net. To me this just shows the glaring hole that our defence really is. It was never about Luongo melting down (though he did on occasion) or Schneider being a new meltdown king. It is all on our defence. A complete lack of will and fight for all the talent they have. Which is telling of the entire team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
