[re-signing] Harding multi-year with Wild

[Zorro]

The destination for Luongo is starting to funnel directly to Toronto.

Burke is probably going to wait until they sign Schneider to really make them move Luongo for a salary dump.

I totally agree with this.. Is Burke smart enough to wait for the Nucks to sign Schneids?? You would sure hope so..

Did I ever thank B.Burke for Seguin, D.Hamilton, and Jared Knight?? If not thankyou and goodluck at the 2012 draft..

At least this time they have their 1st. Or is it too soon to make that assumption?

Definitely too soon.. I can see it now, Bettman walks to the stage and announces that the Leafs have traded the 5th overall pick to the Habs for Kaberle and Gomez..

Don't even mention a thought like that. If Bergevin pulled that off he would be allowed to start doing interviews in English only.

I do not buy the Luongo to Toronto assumptions one bit. I know if makes sense in a lot of ways, but I do not believe Burke will trade for a front loaded contract after he has publicly denounced them the entire time. He is too proud, and the deal would have to be greatly slanted in his favour in order for me to believe that he will go against his word/values/morals/judgement in order for him to do so.

That is actually a great point.. That would almost be like Burke putting out an offer sheet for Schneider, probably won't happen..
