I don't understand it. All the Nuckers think that Luo sucks and they don't want him anymore. But yet they get upset when someone suggests he might be a Blackhawk. If he sucks wouldn't you want him to come here?

I'm starting to realize that Stan Bowman is kind of a really bad GM. It takes a serious lack of brains to destroy a Stanley Cup winning team so badly, and he did it.

If Bolland goes to Vancouver the Canucks will need to bring in a mediator to put between him and the Sedins

You're right about Stan being a bad GM , but any GM would of had to dimantle the 2010 team, salary cap issues.

Enormous risk for Stan that will mark the rest of his career. No matter how one feels about it, what an incredible storyline. If Crawford is a reader, he must think the sky is falling. Certainly wont help his confidence.

After seeing Probert and Carcillo in Hawks gear, I would believe anything.

It has nothing to do with Luongo "Sucking" It has more to do with his history with the Hawks. I cant ever see him accepting a trade there.

Keep going...far too light. Add a pick and another prospect, at least. They will also need some salary going away, and leddy doesnt do that.

Didn't need one between Rodman and Pippen.

It's amazing how wearing the same sweater diminishes feuds.

They have it out in a back alley ,and Bolland beats the both of them, and it's over.

I think Gillis would rather polish StanBo's shinny bald head rather than listening to Burkies loud mouth everyday offering him AHL players.

I always thought Hawks/ Canucks would make good trade partners. They both have a lot of talent and pieces that the other team needs. If they can call a truce for a couple of weeks it might work out,

We would do Vancouver a favor taking his salary off the books. Take 1 prospect not named Saad, tuevo or Clendenning along with Frolik or Montador. Or Keep him and Schneider and pay around 9 million per year for goaltending

...And the risk for Bowman pales in comparison to that of Gillis.

You may be shocked to see he would. He already said he would.

That's a very general statement and wrong. Luongo does not suck, quite the opposite. He's a great goaltender, we just happen to have two of them. Don't want to see him in Chicago because he's good, rather see him in the East if he's not gonna play in Vancouver.

The tension is this: neither team has many, if any, other options. The Hawks continue to be stymied in trade talks elsewhere, and I am hearing they are not getting a lot of love from the remaining free agents out there.


If this turns out to be true, Wirtz needs to clean house immediately.

If SB can't find trade partners, if FAs "show no love" - an original-6 team, a world class city, plenty of money - if that can't get it done, then it will have to get done by someone else.

Rocky, learn what's going on, understand what has to be done, and do it - no matter who falls under the bus heading out of town.

Disagree COMPLETELY. Luongo would like nothing better than to go to the Canucks hated rival and win...a BIG middle finger to Gillis, who has chosen Schneider over him.

As far as the Hawks are concerned, the contract sucks, but he is definitely a big upgrade over what the Hawks have now. I also believe if he were to win a championship in the next few years, he would ride off into the sunset...I don't see him playing out the ten years left on the deal anyway. This version of "the core" must win now before their championship window is closed. That's why I would be fine trading Leddy for a much larger hole on this team, 2C. If I came around on Rodman playing for the Bulls, I can come around on Luongo playing for the Hawks.

- golfbard



The 2 players I would love to see in a Canucks jersey would be Bolland and Marchand...... that would be glorious

Bolland, Leddy or Haljmarson and a second for Luongo would do the trick. Fix both teams needs.

What a nightmare though if Luongo goes to the Hawks and helps them win a cup..... that would kill us fans.

Chicago may be in a different conference after the new CBA

1st off, if any offer involves Lu and Chicago, Montador will be 1 od the players going to Van.

2nd, naming Lu captain of the Nucks was the worst move anyone could have made. I think that pressure added to the pressure of beiing an NHL goaile, had taken a toll on him. I believe a change of team will do him a world of good.

I am betting that there will be some kind of salary releif in the new CBA that will allow teams that aquire a player will be allowed to re-negotiate the contract.

With all this said, I am in favor of bring Lu to Chicago. When was the last time the Blackhawks had a truely top goalie in the league?

As a fan, should I be worried about the cap? I want the best team available, and if Lu makes the team better, that is what I want.

You know I agree about the trade partners. Gillis made his decision when he benched Lou in the playoffs—Schnieder was going to be his guy, ergo Schnieder was better than Lou. So if he feels that way, why not trade Lou to the 'hawks or any other western conference team if the deal is there. This no trading within the conference for fear of this or that is bunk IMO, you make the trade that works best for your team regardless of conference.
