Watch Luongo pull a "I refuse to play" and majorly screw over the Canucks.

Canucks organization totally dun goof'd...

Kinda surprised coming from Gillis who's a former player agent.. you'd think he would treat his players with some sort of respect...

Luongo is a professional... he'll get through it eventually

I sort of hope Luongo doesn't want to play here anymore and demands a trade. He would probably be one of the players I wouldn't be upset about not playing here. Just the whole way the organization has dealt with the situation and Lu still being such a professional; he deserves better.

Farewell Schneider! Met him when he first got called up to play back up, am a huge fan of him and his whole approach to being so calm. All the best! This is the most interesting offseason in recent memory.

MG screwed the guy and made this into a bad situation for a whole year. Lu made it clear that he wants to be traded and MG made it clear he is trying to trade him and go with Schneids.

Now you tell him, you can have your job back? I tell him to fuck off.

Of course Lu is upset, who can blame him? He had his heart set on leaving and was reassured by management that it would happen. Yes, he will be a professional and play, but his heart is no longer here. This can only get worse imo.

He needs to suck it up and realize no one wants that stupid contract. He gets big bucks so he's gonna be a pro and play. He's gonna need a big year to be Canadas number one at the olympics.

They said owners didn't have money to buyout Lu's contract. If Lu walks, I don't blame them as it's the owners/Gillis fault that it got to this.

I hope Lu pulls a Tim Thomas on the nucks. Gillis and the nucks deserves to be fucked.

Luongo can't be faulted at all.

The organization was telling he'll be out the door since day 1. They then expect him to be number 1 again?

If Gillis actually told lu, NJ is interested in Schneider before the draft, it would've been an olive branch. A respect move, but he didn't. Not classy at all.

^^ Holy shit the last 4 years in a row his save percentage was less than .900, with a career post season save percentage of .903.

His regular season career save percentage of .910 is also really unimpressive.

In '09-10, Tim Thomas lost the starter job to Tuukka Rask.

Next year...well...
