A bust prospect and a glorified 4th liner seems like pretty shitty value for Luongo.

Keep him and his salary onboard as a back up then. I'd rather have kadri and bozak and get that free cap space than get lolongo.
He's backed you guys into a corner with a Florida only trade.
I was trying to find it last night before I fell asleep and nothing. I forgot though I was going to tweet the Mike Richards show to ask about it since McGuire is on every morning at 7:30am.
As of now I am calling this BS until proven otherwise.
Unlike most I still see great value in Kadri. Burke doesn't seem to like to rush his prospects up unless they show amazing skill right off the bat (Gardiner). Not to compare the two but didn't he also wait a while before bringing Bobby Ryan up as well too? I'm sure Heretic or Dastardly can fill me in on that.

Bobby played out his OHL career then in 08-09 made the roster, but had to go back to the Iowa Chops because of salary cap issues.

He's worth getting excited about, but he's not a bluechipper like people (including Burke) say he is. Again, I was being harsh because he just turned 22 and Leafs management has been really impatient in the past but he's weak physically (still), has selfish/immature elements to his game that are really exposed in the NHL.
He's shown progression every time they've brought him up, but I guess I expected more from him at this point. Not writing him off because he does have NHL level skills and I don't want to trade him but if he's the piece that can get a #1 goalie here...
That trade leaves the center situation even worse though.
lol totally. I mean, besides, you guys have still got 1A:

Crosby and Toews will be among group of players in NYC. For me, Toews is key. He's been a consistant no-nonsense hardline guy.
2 of the highest paid players, this won't go well

So hope smashed?
Not only 2 of the highest players but 2 of the dumbest
lololololololololololololloloololol Canada
2nd in dman scoring only behind Hamilton while playing on the worst team in juniors doesnt even get you invited.
LOL but whom am I to second guess the bronze medal country.
Maybe they're less concerned about defensive scoring? The only one out of the top 5 that was invited was Hamilton.
But hey, if Canada doesn't win a gold, we can blame their awful performance entirely on their irrational hate for Cody Ceci. If Canada wins gold, it must have been a fluke, despite their irrational hate for Cody Ceci.

Every year Hockey Canada has to make at least dumb omission and it's usually one from the 67s. I'm surprised Monahan made it.
At least I won't have to watch Visentin in goal this year.

US roster:
Trocheck and Grimaldi will be good to watch. If Galy and Grimaldi are on the same line it will be very deadly.

Lmao
Everyone else in that top 5 is already 20 years old and not eligible.
I knew it was a long shot to make the final team, but not even an invite got my jimmies rustled.
They will win the gold solely based on this lockout and RNH, the same guy they snubbed on his draft year and didnt make the final team, a couple of months later he only became a PPG NHL player.

When these two are the face of the NHLPA, you know we're truly fucked.
This meeting is a death rattle.

I'll cheer for Trocheck and (reluctantly) Grimaldi too. It's Huberdeau though.
This definitely isn't Morgan Rielly. Who is it?

Bozak had similar points to Ryan Kesler last season with 4 fewer games. Bozak alone would be overpayment for Luongo's horrendous contract.

Bozak played with two PPG players the majority of the season on the top line, and still got his teeth kicked in, in terms of corsi.
Kesler played on a second line with a rotating set of under-performing wingers, while battling injury issues, and still managed to produce positive corsi.
Bozak is redundant since we already have Andrew Ebbett which is essentially the same player, but better defensively, and much much cheaper.
Bozak is to Kessel/Lupul as Jason King was to the Sedins.
And Kesler had a terrible season.
Bozak would not be an important acquisition.

There you go. RT @PatrickCaisse: @JoeYerdonPHT And for what it's worth, Bill Daly just told me that it was completely false. #BurtonNews
Of course it's not like the NHL will come out and admit anything until it's signed.
Even if that's true, both sides have to agree to the deal, which isn't happening.
I hope this reporter is tarred and feathered when it's wrong. I want them publicly shamed.
I was starting to get on the hype train :'(
I'd rather we feed him to Chara, he must be running out of Slovakian children to eat due to the lockout.
