Don't get too excited

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie
Lot of Luongo talk about waiving/not waiving NTC. Here's my take: Process has yet to be that formal. His obvious preference is FLA, but...

...if FLA doesn't pan out, doors to TOR or elsewhere are not by any means closed. Step by step process that hasn't be formalized in any way.

- gravyface



Agree that its not yet too formal as I doubt that Burke/Gillis close to a deal that would warrant a conversation with Lou.

For example,

“@TMLhockeymedia: I have confirmation: Grabovski+Franson+cond 1st rounder of 2013 (?) is the counter offer from the Canucks. This is 100% confirmed”

Schenn was just on TSN radio moments ago. They asked him “did you want to stay in Toronto?” He didn’t answer. I don’t blame him, but it sounds like he’s pleased to be moving on. He’s going to play with his Bro, but I thought I’d hear “i’ll miss Toronto”, and I didn’t and I’m little surprised at that.

Sounds like Schenn demanded a trade and Luongo refused to waive his NTC.

can you really blame him? Can't be easy being 21 and have a whole city that was just cheering for you one year ago turn against you.

You know, I heard somewhere (and mainstream media too I believe) that Phaneuf and Schenn didn't get along, and they said it like it was public knowledge. I had never heard that before, but kind of makes sense now and I'll bet he wanted out for a while.

There was one article a few months back bashing Phaneuf as captain, that brought that up. Only source I know of.
