Hortankin Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 With Florida exposing Luongo to protect Reimer, there is a chance Vegas takes Luongo. Before that I was thinking Vegas would take Fleury and Subban as their goalies but now I'm debating who is more likely taking? Fleury or Luongo? It'll be interesting to see for sure. If Vegas does take Luongo are we in the clear of that cap penalty for early retirement? It'll be fun to see Louuuu 5-6x a year All time favourite Canuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JM_ Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Nope. It makes no difference to us, we're stuck with the original recapture no matter what. A little gift from Gary. The only way we avoid it is if Lu somehow plays it our or ends up on the LTIR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who retires first Luongo or Fluery? Taking Luongo over Fleury gives Vegas a shot at Bonino.

Never heard of Marches salt but is Smith really that good? Don't follow Florida much at all especially since Shaw was traded to the Ducks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckNORRIS4Cup Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 Fluery, Luongo, Miller as LV goalies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymond Luxury Yacht Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I doubt LV takes Lu because there are better, younger long term options, BUT, think about this. He has a 4.9mil cap hit for the duration of his contract. For the first few years LV will have to be careful with the cash they spend, and cap aside, Luongo's salary has one more year at 5.9Mil, a year at 2.5mil, a year at 818K and two a 200K. If he was interested to play it out, he would be a bargain. I bet we would retire after a season, and that would be bad for our recapture penalty.

The team that benefitted from the front loading of the contract to bring the cap hit down takes the penalty. And there's no penalty if he plays out his whole contract. It's if he retires early that hurts the Canucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
