Nicolas Deschamps is tearing up the A...that's got to be worth something?

Well he can only get offers from the teams on Lols list.

Also add he may be slightly "anti-European"
- Domaju

what makes you say this!?


Its not like hes been rambling for years about how you cant win anything meaningfull without Ontario boys, or Canadian boys and how Russian players dont seemingly have any heart or push to compete in the playoffs?...

True, I wonder how many teams will be on that list. I would say Florida HAS to be on there. Maybe even Tampa. Then maybe Detroit. I can't really see him wanting to go anywhere else.

Just another thing he's right about.

Yeah, agreed, but I pretty well think Lou is done in Vancouver. It looks like they mutually want to part ways. The only way I see Vancouver holding onto Lou is if Gillis is stubborn and hates the lowball offers he gets.

likely will happen for the first month/two

Toronto might not even be on it, pretty sure they want it by next week, could be wrong though.

I hope TO isn't on it. I don't want Luongo.

Yup, which makes me think the more he holds onto lou the more Schnieder pressures him. Pretty interesting situation, could really work out in our benefit. If we are on the list and if Burke bends Gilis over.

I would argue this...but would rather just give you all my thoughts in one organized post.

haha, true. While I agree Luongo is a good goalie and likely a simple scapegoat in Vancouver. He could still be that scapegoat here. IF we don't re-sign Gustavsson then sure, go for Lou. If we DO re-sign Gus I'd like to stick with him and Reimer (but we've had this conversation before lol).

Luongo is an all-star caliber goalie, no question. I'm just afraid that having him here as the starter could hinder the development of a guy like Reimer who would have to take a back seat for a long time. If it was a 2 or 3 year contract I'd be more willing, but with the length left on Luongo's contract I don't think it would be good for the development of Reimer.

Prob True...but at what price going the other way?...we don't want it to turn into a potential lateral move at the expense of our youth cupboard that also burns us financially 5 years from now...

I agree.
I'm up for trading schenn for him

First person I've seen that is still wondering if Gus is being resigned.

What are everyone's picks for round 2?

I've got

Nashville over Phoenix
Los Angeles over St. Louis
New York over Washington
Philidelphia over New Jersey
- Domaju

Nashville all the way baby!!

I dont care about the east ..but if I had to choose..I'm hoping for the caps.
