oldnews Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 "The Heritage Classic may have been the catalyst in Roberto Luongo's move out of Vancouver, according to his agent Pat Brisson. Luongo, long the subject of trade rumours, was benched in favour of Eddie Lack on Sunday against the Ottawa Senators, and Brisson said he was then given the green light to explore other options for his client." If in fact true, I'm thrilled with Tortorella's timing here. Lit a fire under Brisson to get his job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegasCanuck Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Hope Lu does well down in FL, but am I the only one who's noticed that his stats (other than shutting out Buffalo) haven't exactly been Stellar since he got there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nux4lyfe Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Get some revenge on the guy he said the best part about his time in Vancouver was leaving. Post a proper quote, or stop making up BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 gold I thought that was pretty funny. I believe it did come after Luo referred to him as "Tiny Tim". The rest of that interview was pretty 'respectful' however Tim, do you think you could co-exist with Roberto? "Yeah. Of course. He's a good goalie...and from everything I've heard about him he's got good character." Do you want to stay here? "Yeah, but now I've got to see the situation. See what they're thinking. I'd like to check in with Dale before commenting." "I'm looking forward to it. It should be fun." "I wasn't an enemy of him....We're both pros."http://nesn.com/2014...d-to-be-pumped/ Evidently Tallon thought better of experimenting with one of these guys backing the other up...

Why not wait until the offseason then? Luo 5.3 Thomas' 2.5 Ellis' 900k I don't think it was the money as much as the potential gong show - and the likelihood that Thomas wanted to go somewhere with potential. Do you acquire Luo and then make him compete with Thomas? Probably not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lui's Knob Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I still think we for good value. Luongo is getting old and we are grooming lack and markstrom. Mattias solidifies the 3rd line. Too bad we didn't get a pick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan kesler the beast Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 52 saves for Lu tonight against SJ. Had the Panthers under siege in the third, outshooting them 29-2. Luongo was just outstanding... He really does thrive when you play him more and he faces more shots. Florida won 3-2. Really shows you what a goalie can do, imagine if we had him in the islanders game or Tampa or captials game? We would be in a playoff spot. Thanks canucks management team "Lu played well," Sharks captain Joe Thornton said. "He made some good stops. That's what he does. He's a world-class goalie. I thought we could do a little bit better getting in his eyes but he played well." "You could tell he was just on his game from the beginning," Pirri said of Luongo. "It's pretty impressive what he can do. We probably would have liked to give him a little more help. He's the best goalie in the world for a reason."
