I don't understand the thinking of those who think that what came out yesterday does anything but improve the value of Luongo as essentially a large chunk of the risk could be gone.

There is such a disparity in the valuations in these threads and the true value probably lies somewhere in between. It will be interesting to revisit these threads if/when a trade goes down.

In my opinion

1. No cap dumps will be coming the other way, Luongo will bring a decent return.
2. At 33 he will not return a young stud forward/defenseman

Just my 2c
