Komisarek + 2nd for Luongo

has this been said yet?

You forgot Kadri.
- LeftCoaster

and our 5th overall and kessel.

I'm thinking for TO Kadri, Komisarek and Toronto's 1st for Lou plus maybe Vancouver's 1st maybe or a lower pick.
We have to remember that Lou is a Gold medal winner and almost won a Stanley Cup and he has struggled but he is a elite goalie where as Komisarek would be a money dump for Toronto and he has been hot and cold this season being benched in some games, Kadri and the 1st would be the real deal.

Are you on crack? Bath Salts? Seriously? Is it more potent out there?

There's not a snowballs chance in hell we give Kadri and the 5th overall pick for a guy with a country mile still left on his deal that pays him over 5 million and he's on the wrong side of 30.

That would be 10000 times more asinine then the Kessel deal.

Columbus getting Lou. May I suggest Nash for Loungo??????
- sheam316

Nash for Luongo (+Kesler, +1st)

Also, the Canucks don't have to trade Luongo

even if he didn't ask for a trade, if they have to match an offer sheet for schneider, then they could have significant resources capwise in their goalies. last years compensation for restricteds


$1,567,043 -- $3,134,055: Second-round pick

$3,134,088 -- $4,701,131: First and third-round pick

$4,701,131 -- $6,268,175: First, second and third-round pick

what if someone who needs a goalie offers schneider a 5 year 4.7 million dollar contract. I'd give up a first abd a third. hell... a vancouver rival knowing the situation could offer him a 5 year 6 million dollar deal and only loose 1,2,3. worth it for a young future number 1 goalie. can van really afford to spend 10-11 million on just their goalies?

Nash for Luongo (+Kesler, +1st)
- clarkysduster

But TO can get Nash for Kadri 2 nd and Bozac

You guys are funny

Nope. Sorry bud, you don't get the goalie with the best career save % in the NHL over longer than anyone else in the league for nothing.

Its the 1st and Schenn or Gardiner.

BOOK IT!!
- vancitydan

What would be cool is if Schnieder gets Offer sheeted, say 5 years at 25 M..Van would match and have 12 Mill plus tied up in two goalies for the next 5 years. Say, want Komi now???

Komisarek + 2nd for Luongo

has this been said yet?
- bobbyflex

Yes...and I can see that happening.
But I don't think any deal goes down until at least the first half of the 1st round of the draft is over. Maybe even the entire 1st round.

Luongo, Ballard, and Raymond for the rights to Franson, Kulemin, and Komi. Canucks then bury Komi in the minors.

feel better?
but how many cups do you have?
- Leaffan8113

that's the best you can do?

Toronto is really in a great situation ...they get to choose from one of the 3 overrated, nut case has beens...Luongo, Thomas or Hasek.

Get excited Leaf fans...

Too much really. Let Gillies twist in the wind for a while. Start the offer sheet rumour. YOu'll see him cave

who in their right mind said komisarek was too much....

You mean like Bryz??

Then Pressbox Ballard is sent down to the Chicago Wolves and we use his 4.2M until we fnd the right suitor for LU.

Future Hall of Fame goalie? Based on what? A Jennings trophy and a Clarence Campbell Cup? He's good yes but he hasn't earned Hall of Fame mention consideration yet.
- Kinger34

Dale Hawerchuk, Mats Sundin, Mike Gartner and Adam Oates never won a cup. Luongo has been in the Vezina conversation for ten freaking years. Name a goalie other than Roy who's been more consistent. Tell me? He's a hall of famer and he's got another seven years left.

Toronto is really in a great situation ...they get to choose from one of the 3 overrated, nut case has beens...Luongo, Thomas or Hasek.

Bryzgalov, Richards & Carter, etc.

Luongo, Ballard, and Raymond for the rights to Franson, Kulemin, and Komi. Canucks then bury Komi in the minors.
- Chest Rockwell

They would try him first to see how he does .Vancouver need RHD this year.

What would be cool is if Schnieder gets Offer sheeted, say 5 years at 25 M..Van would match and have 12 Mill plus tied up in two goalies for the next 5 years. Say, want Komi now???
- Old Pappy

Nah we will trade LU to NYI for 2nd round pick

Also, the Canucks don't have to trade Luongo

They would match anything for Schneider but I believe the situation will be resolved before July 1st.

that's the best you can do?
- LeftCoaster

As Sheppy says ask him how many times they have made the playoffs since the invention of HDTV.

I'll use small words for the head injured Leaf fan here. I hope you get better son.

Simply, you can't just say something and hope its true.

There are 25 teams that have a lesser guy in the goal.

Even if you go down to the folks that should be interested, to say NO ONE is just stupid.

So there is a market. He has plenty of value, and if the Leafs want him, they will have to step up, or not.

Go ahead with Reimer as the starter and see how that goes. Or sign Vokoun...in a year the GM needs to succeed or be gone.

Hell, go for a Lindback...he is a good young goalie. Bernier too.

With Timmy taking the year off, its the Leafs that have NO LEVERAGE ( used capitals so you would understand thats important young man ) if they want an ACE veteran goalie that will literally guarantee the playoffs.

Sorry little man.
- vancitydan

Seeing as we're comparing the totality of his history how many years was he in the playoffs before he got to Vancity? Since he will literally guarantee the playoffs I have to think he has a Lindstrom type record to go along with his years played.

Everyone knows you don't become an ACE when you're a veteran...so his past must be pretty spectacular. A Stanley Cup....multiple Vez's as well as a probable Con Smyth must be in there somewhere.....hell, I'll even give you Tim Thomas as the exception to the rule you might come back at me with.

Then Pressbox Ballard is sent down to the Chicago Wolves and we use his 4.2M until we fnd the right suitor for LU.

easy to type about burying 4.2 million in the minors when your not the one flushing your money down the terlit

I'm the owner of the nucks.. the gm comes and says "hey, can I trade this one goalie for an asset, albiet a small one and match this offer for schneider? or can I take 4.2 million of your dollars and wipe my crack with it instead?" mmmnnnnnn

But TO can get Nash for Kadri 2 nd and Bozac

You guys are funny
- VANTEL

Oh god no, it would cost much more than we'd be willing to pay....same for you guys.

And I'm not convinced Lou would even waive for a place like Cls

Luongo, Ballard, and Raymond for the rights to Franson, Kulemin, and Komi. Canucks then bury Komi in the minors.
- Chest Rockwell

That's likely close, although I'd rather not do it...thats a long expensive contract to take and we have a few goalies who could possibly be starters in the future and by trading for a 10 year contract, you're basically giving them a big "(frank) you"

Also, Kulemin has had some ups and downs, but he's our only two-way top six guy with size. We need to keep him unless we're getting something similar back.
