Stop I quit. It's been almost four months but I miss it. I used to love thinking and writing right after. I stopped because it was making me to lazy. But I've kinda realized that's just me in general.........

Seeing the Caps don't have cap for Johansson maybe we could trade Tanev for Johansson.

I don't see Luongo being here long. I think Gillis will try to find a partner early if Lu comes out strong.

That "exclusive" by Duthie was a big yawn but one rumor Lu did banish was that he vetoed trades that were on the table. If that's true, it leads me to think that either Gillis fcuked up the interest he did have or there was no real interest at all.

Tough to see how even a good run of 30 games at say a .930 sv% would suddenly get people banging down the door.

Someone will need a goalie bad early on, I'm guessing Philly, and if Gillis wants to he will just doubt anything of significance comes back.

Luongos interview today clearly showed he ready to play out his contract. If thats not the case behind the scenes then we'll see. But im thinking Lou will finish his career a Canuck. Unless Lack turns out to be insanely stellar as a back up and they eventually buy luongo out or trade him once his NTC expires.

Which personally I dont think is even remotely posssible. But weider things have happened, Like you know. Trading Schneider for a pick

One of the better and more educated posters over on HF said that every time Lou has answered questions of that ilk he's worded his answer very carefully and the same every time, and while Lou always says he never "blocked" or "vetoed" a trade, it does sound like he may have indicated that it was Florida or TB or nothing...

I agree with that assessment. I just read the Puck Daddy article and it certainly looks like he gave Gillis a set of (narrow) parameters. As such, it seems unlikely that Gillis would approach him with a possible trade to any other team (especially knowing he had veto power). Of course anything is possible, but the semantics point to more than just what is being presented.

Sooooo....here we are. Lu is back, all the defence is pretty much the same, most of the forwards are pretty much the same. I'm not sure what to expect, but I'm excited for training camp!

Oh damn...I forgot about him

In six years of drafting for Gillis, he's made 37 selections. Five of those pics have played an NHL game, I'm hoping JT is true to his word, allowing the young guys a shot at making the club.

I hope so. I would rather lose with new faces learning the game instead of the same boring stuff over the last two years.

We really do need some new faces on the bench.
