Actually I wouldn't wanna move luongo to you guys anyways so............
- Jake_1723


Keep him, while your at it, lets see if you can win the cup with him (on the bench or not). I will congratulate you if it happens...but I have a feeling it the cup will never come to Vancouver with Luongo on your team.

Yes, already stating a guy who has not played one nhl game is already better than gardiner, nice logic
- Mapleleafs_91


Murray has already played with nhlers at the world championship he got more minutes then schenn. So ya I can say he will be better

Rielly is a good pick gonna be around a long time but not as that number 1 guy I don't think
- Jake_1723

He may and may not be, we can have different opinions on that.. but scouts say he has #1 franchise dman written all over him, and he's actually a two-way defensemen and not strictly offensive-defensemen because although he has elite offensive tools, he is really smart in his own end.. they compared him to Karlsson and Letang

Heck even if he turns out to be a solid top 4 guy with loads of offense from the backend im happy

as much as i love gardiner, Rielly>>Gards in terms of potential

Reilly and Reinhart were actually the best dmen available today imo.

See i can come to terms with an edmonton fan, but talking to the nucks is like talking to a brick wall or fans who think luongo is going to bring them the world back for a player who has the worst contract by far..

Agreed but id rather keep schenn.
- Mapleleafs_91


This may be the first time you've actually replied to one of my posts with a real response. I appreciate it.

I don't blame you. Honestly, they probably both have a similar value, but it's only natural to get more attached to the player who plays for your team. I could see Schenn having a good bounce-back year, with Carlisle's system, and I've always liked the physical side of his game.

Only reason I think the Leafs would have to add to the deal is that, as I said, right now power forwards tend to fetch a higher price than defensive D. It makes more sense for TO to keep Schenn, at the moment.

We have seen glimpses of what schenn can do, and now under carlyle maybe he will improve. And your point murray played better? Why wouldnt he play better? Hes trying to prove himself, what does schenn have to prove? He is already on the leafs and has a roster spot, whats playing for canada have to prove to leaf fans? The only way he proves himself is with the leafs and he shows the player he was the first season he played with the leafs.

Theres no market for him, and if he stays Schneider will want out. Your Luongo contract has got your balls in a vicegrip. Poor Nucks, came close enough to taste it, but never will with their soap opera they call a franchise

Not true at all.

If you sign Schultz, I suspect one or even two of Fransson/Schenn/Gunner are gone. You move those guys to improve.

Atleast luongo puts up numbers. Komi is worse way to much and does nothing.

Not sure what Burke was doing today though. Michalek and Visnovsky got moved for scraps.

while I am sour about 3 consecutive lottery finishes, I can't deny..I get goose pimples when i look at our forwards.

The avatar stays until they clinch a playoff berth though.

Rielly will take a while to get him ready for the NHL. I can see franson, holzer, blacker and komi out the door before schenn and gunner.
