naslund.is.king Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 My only true complaint was getting so little for Schneider.... First rounders are a gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackberries Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 this draft is being compared to 03, (arguably the best ever)if thats the case then this deal will be a homerun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Undecided. Could Gillis have got more? Sure. I would have taken a very good prospect as well, or a solid roster player along with the 9th. Of course if Horvat turns into a star for us, is anyone really going to care about what else we could have got? Probably not. Oh Horvat, I hope you turn out well because this is a ugly god damn trade in Canucks history if you don't.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naslund.is.king Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I was really stoked Shinkaruk fell to us. Last Medicine Hat Tiger we took turned out pretty damn well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lui's Knob Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Not against trading Schneider if we had to but we should have gotten more so I voted no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nucklehead Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 What does in matter if I like it or not? It's a done deal. fyi I voted yes. There was no other practical way to handle it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuckster1970 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Apparently there were other teams willing to give 3 times as much for Schneider, but Gillis panicked. He wanted that 9th pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edlerberry Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 If the trade was for Barkov there wouldn't be nearly as much controversy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wai_lai416 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 i really hate all those idiots that are saying blah blah blah Luongo's and the management fault for having this ridiculous contract.. they made him unmoveable etc etc etc.. no.. it's the NHL that made the contract unmoveable with the new CBA.. with the cap recapture rule after he retires.. there's plenty of teams out there that can afford the contract or even the cap hit as 5.3 isn't bad.. they just don't want to take on the contract because of the penalty against their cap once he retires before the end of his contract.. reason why he wasn't move last year before the new CBA?? isn't it obvious? GM are waiting to see what the new CBA is like before they make their move.. and they were smart.. the new CBA targetted these types of contract.. which is stupid to begin with.. how the hell do u retroactively penalize a team on a contract they signed under the old rules? if you had a job with certain benefits would you be ok if a new management comes in and everything just changed and nothing u can do about it?? i don't understand it at all.. why did NJ get penalized their 1st round pick for circumvening the cap back then when under the new rules they are going to get raped with the recapture rule.. NJ got double screwed lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wai_lai416 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Schneider was/is ready to be a full time starter. He could've played 65 games or so and Lou would just sit on the bench. Ya cant tell me Lou wouldn't waived his NTC then. Gillis could've got something for Lou but Lou only had Florida in his sights. I can't imagine Lou is happy even now.

Mclean1 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I've been a Lu backer from day 1and I totally feel bad for Cory with the way it ended with all the Bs both him and Lu have been given by this management team .Memo to Gillis you've turned our beloved team into a days of our lives crap show...please just resign already!!!

Buckeye Fruit Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 Said no. OK with trading ginger, but think Gillis should have been working this option from the start and gotten more for him and NOT jerked Luo around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugar baby watermelon Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 If Schneids learned alot from Lou, which he did, then I hope Lou learned alot from Schneider, preferablly ability not to flop over, don't want Lou to keep flopping after the first shot giving shooters the wide open upper net.

Nas19 Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 If Horvat turns out to be a Patrice Bergeron like player, which some scouts said he can be, then I'll be happy with the trade. Right now I'm undecided. I think we could have gotten more for Schneider though. Man if Gillis could have gotten another prospect from the Devils our future would be looking awesome. We had an outstanding draft yesterday. Best one in years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 I voted YES because, seriously, were there any other creditable options, given the fact that we still don't really know how good CS was. Wait till he gets to NJ, it will be interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted July 1, 2013 Share Posted July 1, 2013 We just traded what, in my mind, is a vezina-type goaltender (the most important piece you can possibly have on your team) for a good prospect. Not even an elite prospect, just a good one. Obviously a trade had to be made but the return was extremely low. Somewhere in private, Lou Lamoriello is dancing a jig right now.
