I'll almost guarantee it'll be Sharks for Pav or Sens for Turris. They're the best suitors IMO. Out of the two, I'd say Sharks are the most likely. Pavelski is what Vancouver needs, and the Sharks need a more solid goaltender than Nemo. I feel that if Luongo gets a fresh start and some new scenery, he'll return to his old form.

Why bother? The sharks are set with Gomez...

yes.

don't forget overpaying garrison for 6 years.. leaving 5/6ths of your blueline paid over 4.5 mil a season, and the first one off the books in 2015.

he already has 60.5 million spent for next season. with malholtra, higgins, raymond, lapierre, ebbet, volpatti, andre alberts.. and barker to be signed, or replaced. then he has to give raises to kassian, tanev, and wiese.

the future is weak at best. gaunce, schroeder... and corrado the next best things coming in?

gillis has (frank)ed this team right up. he's a less on the radar version of JFJ.

4/6ths 4.5 or over... Ballard is 4.2

As far as prospects you forgot the #1 prospect jensen

Did JFJ win GM of the year too?

So why discuss Flyers/Luongo at all then?

Let's face it, Vancouver isn't taking on Bryzgalov's Contract.
The only way PhIlly deals for Luongo is if they first unload Bryzgalov.
The only team that has both the caps pace to carry him now, and financial wherewithall to buyout Bryzgalov this summer is Toronto.
- B-Wforever

I just glanced at your initial post but from what I gathered you were talking about Bryzgalov coming to Toronto and us somehow acquiring Simmons.....

That didn't sound like a Flyers/Luongo deal

Incorporating a 3 way trade between the nucks/flyers/leafs is so out of the question that it honestly just becomes fantasy and why nobody will take you seriously.

Its actually not well played at all...it smells of a rookie GM or a guy who was barely a decent agent in his day...
It says we have nobody wanting lou and his contract unless we take huge contracts back. Let be reminded of the fact that lou only wants to to 2 places maybe 3.The leafs are doing well with scrivens so the longer gillis waits the less likely the leafs want him.Hes dealing with a smart GM in nonis not some egomaniac like himself in burke.

Are you kidding? Gillis a decent agent?

Hes a great agent. Look at the deals he got Luongo and Garrison. Oh wait..

nope.. but JFJ (frank)ed his team up as bad as gillis is (frank)ing up yours.

refer to "less under the radar version of JFJ" that was previously outlined.

he might of if he inherited an already built team before absolutely dismantling it. Instead he just dismantled an already $hitty team. No big deal.

also. hockeysfuture has your best prospect listed as a 'C' in terms of 'probability of success'.

winning.

JFJ was two GM's ago.

Gillis is now.

Yea...that worked well in your favour.

He's really an undercover agent working from the inside........ makes so much sense now

Huh? U wife's on that one. That was a response to an inadequate comparison of jfj to gillis. If you are going to put in your half a Penny at least try to follow the convo. It might work in your favour.

if anything.. JFJ's doing better.

he didn't leave the team totally (frank)ed against the cap.

he drafted a few players that are actually benefitting the franchise to.

... gillis? got you guys as close to a cup as you'll ever get. and left empty handed. cool.

Dave Nonis- Hey Gillis, we're going with what we got
Mike Gillis- but, but i just told the media we have a deal in place.
Dave Nonis- Not my fault your a (frank)ing meathead who thinks he's going to win this trade.
Mike Gillis- Fine I'll trade him to...
Dave Nonis- "Well we're waiting"....in Judge Smales voice

also. hockeysfuture has your best prospect listed as a 'C' in terms of 'probability of success'.

You take hockeysfuture at face value? Lol nice work Sherlock. Way to form an opinion.

Kopi is back. Mitchell will be soon. Greene out for the season. Lets go boys!

it's not my fault you have to dig as deep as hockeysfuture to find any kind of opinion on your garbage prospects.

"Whiffed" autocorrected... Funny that 2/3rds of your posts have nothing to do with hockey. Might want to try a different forum or support group.

Funny how you bring up my wife in a post and follow it up with this. Might want to try a different street corner to buy your crack from.

LIke your enthusiasm but your team isn't winning the cup two years in a row..... All teams suffer from the second year slump after winning the cup unless your team is a dynasty like the Wings were.

You know what would be great?

If you two gentlemen took this re-enactment of the Lincoln-Douglas debates to Julie's thread.

You could have the whole thread to yourselves.

Thanks
