No trade clause. The team is handcuffed.
- thundachunk

Vancouver can't trade him without his permission, but they can waive him and ave another team grab him.

Lu can refuse to report, and the other team can suspend him. They can then agree to void the contract, making Lu a free agent.

So it is possible...

Not likely, though.

Hilarious, it went from Gillis wanting Kadri and Gardiner for Lu, to not being able to trade Lu and having to shop Scheider.


Brilliant.

Kind of like the Leafs going from being in the 2nd round to out in the first round.

Actually TO offered Gardiner, Kadri, Bozak and a 1st, which after last year, looks like it may be fair value for Lack or Loungo as long as the leafs retain half of Bozaks caphit. But a year ago, Vancouver would have got robbed blind to take all those spare parts for the worlds second best goalie.

Biggest mistake ownership made was not firing Gillis.
Jim Nill would have righted this ship around and in 2 years have this team contending again. If they want to keep Lu go frickin ahead.

Trade Schneider for oilers 7th pick and Gagner.

Take that 7th pick and Edler to Florida and draft Jones.

Right there you get your stud defenseman for 10 years and your 3rd line center.

Have you seen Jones play live? Hardest shot on the Laziest player I've ever seen. And he was throwing nice hits with his elbows leading on guys that were like 5'7-5'9ish.
Kid aint gonna be a stud at the nhl level... Pure bust. I'd go for Drouin if mackinnon isn't available.

Talk to me when you actually win a playoff game. Or a cup, for that matter.

I realize you've been gone (banned) for 2 years, but no one says owned anymore.

I wouldn't say "bust" but he was never a #1 pick. D are hard to predict. Look at Adam Larsson....

Nobody will ever know for sure except Toronto and Vancouver. So lets all just stop talking about it. It never happened so who cares. We are all moving on. Toronto got Bernier now and van has other possible solutions

Talk to me when the Leafs can actually win a game 7 with a 3 goal lead with little more than 10 minutes left.

What was it like watching the likes of Johnny Bower and Tim Horton skate around the gardens, hoisting the cup?

Sounds like somebody has a crush on Marchand and Lucic to single those 2 out...out of the hundreds of guys to win a cup in the last couple decades, we learned about who CC would like to have perform a "rotisserie" on him

Rotisserie - is that what Marchand did to one of your twins in the crease? Not familiar with the term

Unbelievable... Gillis is a joke. Why would anyone want to sign here after how he's handled Luongo & Schneider...
