do gms actually think they fool other gms with this shit though

isnt this like the little kid that covers his eyes and thinks you cant see him but for adults

Ummm Brian Burke did it all the time. Eventually they stopped listening.

great point just brought up by pagnotta

is everyone possibly reading the quote wrong

does 'not who anybody thinks it is' refer to the player and not the team

[gfhyde]

Latest news is Blackhaws and Oilers are interested

at the end of the day as many teams as want to be interested in him can be interested in him

if he isnt interested back it means very little

For sure. i dont know how you couldn't be interested in those teams

its possible I guess, but I think the other interpretation is more likely because:

1)the article is specifically about Luongo so its not a different player on the Nucks side
2)I can't think of a specific player coming back in a deal who would qualify as someone 'everyone thinks it is'

its about a lot more than just the teams

he has a wife to please and everything else

yeah it seemed an interesting thing to mention so i mentioned it

i understand what pag is saying but at the same time yeah it seems pretty odd to even bring it up if he meant player and not team

In my humble opinion, they should keep him. But he could be on his way to San Jose.
Gillis is a idiot.

NYI makes the most sense. Nabby will be gone after this year, and they'll buy Dipietro out eventually you'd think.

TBL makes sense, but I don't see it. The Stars have Lehtonen locked up long terms, as do the Jets with Pavelec - so those 2 teams make no sense IMO.

Edmonton shouldn't rely on Dubnyk for the long haul, and Khabby is on the last year of his contract.


Chicago, Toronto, Philly, and FLA have already been linked so if it's a 'surprise' it won't be any of them.

Washington or Edmonton is my bet.

It's would be a surprise now....wouldn't it. All smoke and mirrors by brothas!

[mister_mcgoo]

gee Gillis what happened? I thought you had a deal on the table?

[havanablast21]

Yup....all smoke and mirrors...school yard tactics.

Lu is a great tender, their window to win a cup is closing, Schneider will fetch better pieces.

I lived in Vancourver for the past 5 years until last summer. The fanbase wants Luongo out as much as: Raptors fans want Bargnani traded, Jets fans want Sanchez gone, and Habs fans wanted Gomez out, COMBINED.

The fan base has very little confidence in Luongo now, and see Schneider as a savior. I swear the city would riot if Schnieder is traded instead of Luongo. (which is very scary thought speaking as someone working in the downtown hospital oncall during the last riot - a major shltstorm)

This fan doesn't. If you watched the first game you would heard the fans yelling Lou.
If Gillis can get a great return for Corey, gitter done.
