Timonen should win for having to be the #1 D all year with pronger out and a lackluster supporting cast.

There's your next blog Ek. all you need to do is make some stuff up and sprinkle in a few misspelings and grammatical errors.

You haters crack me up. Last year it was "the Grease Ball Head Case". Now that he's leaving the Canucks he's "Mr. Class". Beautiful.

If anything you Nuck fans are the one who called him all of that. DOn't try and pass it as if it came from another fan base.

People are forgetting that there's two outs over the next 5 years. Lu option and then the teams option.

Those are interesting options in his contract. he has moved up his request option to this season so basically 2 years early but he has to supply the team with a list of 5 teams. that's not giving the Nucks many options to work with. So basically the teams we are thinking may not be on the list. if the team doesn't trade him by 2018 the team loses it's option of requesting a trade list. challenge what 5 teams does everyone think is on his list?
1) Detroit
2) New York
3) Boston
4) Pittsburg
5) New Jersey
those are my thoughts on what teams he would be willing to be traded to leaving him either Boston or New Jersey who would maybe require his services.

The only 2 confirmed teams are Toronto and Tampa so those should be included in any speculated lists.

Those are 5 teams he would not be traded to... NYI and not NYR would make sense I guess, the rest have starting goalies, jersey is possible though.

how has this been confirmed, based on my understanding no such list has been submitted by Luongo's party yet.

It might not be straight from Luongo's mouth but it's good enough for me:

i dunno, these reports went from "it is believed that Toronto wlll be one of those teams, to sudden confirmation... with no report from any of the parties involved (I guess that wouldn't happen anyways)

I just don't want Toronto to be one of those teams. I find it hard to believe that Toronto would be.

I never said once he was a greaseball, it was more like the Nuck fans (and Leaf fans) that were saying that.

Take solace in the fact that Tampa makes waaaaay more sense.

Sequel... NOOOOOOOOOO.

Their other stuff hasn't really done it for me. Beerfest was ok but just ok and Club Dread was like, Scary Movie level stupidly bad. I think they caught lightning in a bottle with that one.

Maybe, not you Whipper. But over the past 3 years, up against Chicago, and Boston, it was fans of other teams that constantly slammed Loungo, calling him 7uongo, and a ton of choking names, pumping tire jokes and nasty posts. Even when he was team Canada's goalie, he never received any (or very lillte) credit from fans outside of Vancouver.

So, as a Canucks fan, that has to read the posts from numerous people (who once trashed him) now saying how he is a true gentleman, and its the Canucks fans that are screwing him is quite funny. Many of us supported him through all that crap, and now we are the ones that are to blame for the situation the Canucks are in.

I don't care if the Leafs fans who once trashed him are now putting proposals to get him, just find it amusing as hell.

Not everyone trashed him. I would say there were as many Leafs fans as Nucks fans.

Bandwagon Canucks fans and Dshiddy. Many were Hawks fans too, rubbing salt in the wounds, or Bruins fans, but I am sure you remember haw many people did not want him in Team Canada's crease and still to this day say he didn't win that tournament, he just didn't lose it.

I like Luongo, I think he can be and is a great goalie in this league.
