I wouldn't mind something like Vanek and a 2nd for Henrique and a 1st. If NJ does well, their 1st and our 2nd would only be about a 10 spot difference in picks. Imagine a line of Vanek Zajac and Jagr. I would even pay half of Vanek's salary.

Wouldn't happen with Vanek only having a year left and even if it did, the 1st would have to be in 2015. Don't have a 1st this year

I must agree. When this all started a year or two ago, I thought who cares about overrated Bobby-lou. But with each twist and turn of the knife by the Nucks into Louango, I am starting to feel sorry for him. The Nucks have butchered this thing from the start, and Gillis is simply reacting and grasping at whatever he can muster to try to save himself.
It couldn't happen to a better franchise. Riot the streets Nucks fans...things will only get worse!

A lot of people do. Especially those who will be cheering for Team Canada this winter.

Eklund: Will Damian Be A Devil? Habs/Nucks, Chart Updated. + Luongo news coming...
- Eklund

Hey Ek, just wondering if you have an update or a target date for when your book will be published. Really looking forward to it! Huge fan.

We'd be doing you a favor taking Price and his awful contract.
- Scooby_Doo

You guys are screwed this season...nice going Gillis

Duh its a Luongo and Edler for Price and Tinordi trade :D
- Sirfunkyton

Luongo, Edler, Horvat, and a 1st probably....... still doesn't get it done. Luongo's contract is really bad, just look at the buyouts this season, lots of great players with contracts that are such a huge burden now.

Could make it a conditional pick if he resigns. What is the hold up on Henrique signing? He's an RFA, correct?

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

I think Roberto has already checked out of Vancouver. Well mentally at least.. He'll probably still be a nuck face come the start of the season, but I can't imagine how strange it would be to play for a team that you've already cut ties with in your mind. I'm sure he'll do what he can to muster up some loyalty and get through this train wreck. I've never been a Lou fan, but that franchise has handled things horribly and I would think he deserves better

Didn't luongo just fire his agent, after he basically said Lu shouldn't go back to Vancouver?

- adambuffalo

Ya, he's RFA. As of last week, they were apparently pretty close. I think Lou is just trying to decide whether to do short term or long

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Lou should hit his peak by 2021...

Same with bryz.

Who?

Luongo, Edler + 3rd for Price, Subban, Eller + 1st.
- Scooby_Doo

I was going to suggest a similar trade, but without the homer glasses on and neutrality as a fan of neither team it had Luongo + Edler for Price and huge cap space savings.

Even then I doubt MON fans accept this trade, let alone with adding all you expect.

Who?
- Flyfreaky

Exactly.

Exactly.

- Conflict076

Canucks will have Weber and Subban on the blueline.

It's like Ek just throws something out there, hoping something will happen and then saying hey I got that. Totally make believe.

Luongo > Price

Our team is better than yours, so what does this all say about the Habs and 90% of the NHL?

- hankthetank

Someone is jealous, lol.

I don't know how people can say that Clarkson's deal is a similar fail to Luongo's considering that other teams offered same term and more money.

Oh yes I do, because he is a Leaf.

Clarkson's deal while risky is not horrible. Paying 4-5M for a top 6 forward was the going rate and Clarkson was the best FA on the board. While the deal can easily turn into a Brad Richards like contract it can also end up being a steal.

Duh its a Luongo and Edler for Price and Tinordi trade :D
- Sirfunkyton

Canucks fans are so cute...what are you smoking? Throw in BOTH Sedins and a truckload of testosterone and maybe you get Price.
