I'd do that in a heartbeat

Hamhuis - Bieksa
Schenn - Edler
Gardiner - Tanev

Gross overpayment for Luongo. Burke would be fired on the spot. There's a number of goalie options out there who aren't 33 with a 10 year contract. Keep dreaming.

Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't be upset to have Luongo in a Leafs jersey, but you're going to have to take on salary like Komisarek for a deal to happen.

How was a 21-22 year old the face of the Canucks!?

He didn't make an impact like say oooh Ovechkin? Crosby? Stamkos?

Maybe more of Franson + MacArthur + 5th overall.

I'm sure if Gillis is trading Luongo away, he wants the cap space.

just saw this on twitter

Our Metropolis @ Metrotown Team Store is closing on June 3, so we're having a sale! #Canucks

Everything in the store (excluding jerseys) is 50% off from June 1-3. Last chance to check out the Metropolis @ Metrotown location!

Deal of the Week? All vintage jerseys are 40% off at all Team Store locations! (Excluding name and number). #Canucks

Mike Oxbig 05-31-2012 01:15 PM

Id do Schenn + 5th for luongo although im one of those people who rather trade #35 instead of #1. Atleast we will bring in another canadian player who throws bone crushing hits which gets the fan out their seats? In that case let the Brayden Schenn to vancouver rumors start :troll:

Anyone know what they carry? I went there when it first opened and they basically just had a lot of T shirts..

I figure most of the good stuff will be gone.

I don't think that's TOO far of a stretch either, but the 2 goalies have to be willing to do that for it to work. For a chance at a good run at the cup, I can see Lu willing to give up another 10 regular season games to Schneider and Schneider willing to play 1b for another season. Although many are saying that Lu is unwilling to give up his starting role, and Cory is unwilling to not be a starter.

Regarding Lu to TO, I'd be hardpressed to think Burke would give up Schenn/Gardiner/1st. But he would be willing to mortgage his team's future to get them into the playoffs, basically its the team's future vs. his own future. I'd pull that deal off in a heart beat, and I'd also pull off that deal in a heart beat without Schenn. Gardiner alone will give us a good shot at landing Schultz for 3 yrs at entry level pricing, basically a 2 for 1 deal to rejuvenate our blueline for pennies on the cap so we can stop having to play plugs like Rome and Alberts. Schenn MAY have potential as a good shut down d-man, some say he has been improperly developed and too much pressure placed on him. He is young still, but he isn't cheap for what he has brought to the table so far, so there is a risk taking on Schenn's salary if he has topped out already.

The Coho fans wanted him to become the second coming of Trevor Linden.

Gilgamesh 05-31-2012 03:05 PM

Schenn's only a 3mil cap hit. It's not too bad, if he can regain his 2009-10 (2nd half) form then it's a bargain.

Well, when you have a top line of Hagman, Stajan, and Blake, you have to do crazy things.
As already stated, the Sedins and Kesler are clearly the faces of the Canucks franchise. Canucks should just go for Schultz hard and draft a shutdown defenseman in this draft, since there are a lot of defensemen in the top 30 in this year's draft.

If Luongo gets dealt this year, expect Kesler to be the next player this city throws under the bus.

Last time I went it was bunk as hell. Basically just had a limited selection of hurting T shirts, jerseys, and a few random misc items like cups and shit. Unless you're already at Metrotown I wouldn't waste my time to be honest.

Apparently people don't know how to use photoshop in Detroit. Nice gesture though.

Interesting. You guys see this?

@samjam99: BREAKING: can confirm Roberto Luongo will be traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs. Deal will be completed by draft, if not July 1. #Canucks
This guy was right about the Booth trade, the Hodgson trade and a couple other Canucks things ahead of guys like Bob McKenzie and Darren Dreger.

Side-note: I find it hilarious that all the TSN guys are considered experts and insiders but no one gives a shit about what anyone on SportsNet (e.g. Kypreos) says.

Not really racist! 06-01-2012 12:53 AM

I think its legit... heh, we'll wait and see
