Pretty sure the Canucks would take a bag of pucks over a return of just komisarek
Knowing FLA's financial difficulties, Canucks would even go as far as accept a single puck or even a roll of hockey tape before making a straight swap for Komisarek.
I was just using it as a worst case, I mean we are pretty sure Schenn straight up was turned down, so I would expect at least that from the leafs.
I'm not sure about that. It was never really reported other than that tweet by a Vancouver reporter that said the leafs will have to offer more than that.
There were no rumors that Schenn was being shopped around. And Burke said Holmgrom contacted him and they have been discussing that trade in 1 form or another for months.

Just seems to convenient, on top of the fact I thought a few others reported it. I may be wrong, just what I remember.
To Vancouver: Brayden + Luke Schenn
To Philly: Luongo + Ballard
To Toronto: Bryzgalov + 2nd
To Philly: Kadri + 1st
Yes? No? Maybe?
All depends how Bryz is seen, personally I wouldn't touch him, but don't know what leaf fans and or management think.
From a Van standpoint, Like Brayden, like lukes upside, but not sure what we do with our pairs. I probably do it, as I can see the brothers schenn having huge upside.
I still say we can use the books, there is 12, plus a entire book of short stories. Some would be repeat titles though.
I really hope this doesn't drag out so long that we seriously need to go into the book series... after the Casino Royale spoof we could move on to Austin Powers.
You can say you won't give up Hossa, but valuewise they're very similar:
Same age, almost same cap hit, both elite players, Luongo's term is longer, Hossa's coming off an injury, both fill needs with the other's organization(with Chicago's need being greater).
But I get that you wouldn't do it though.
Exactly!
Well, except for the fact that Goalies don't really get the same return as superstar forwards.
And that Luongo is known to under perform in the playoffs.
Oh wait, and the fact that there's at least 15 teams that'd be interested in having Hossa but there's only 2-3 teams interested in Luongo.
Yeah actually never mind, they don't have equal value at all.

Well, if Carlyle puts a Phoenix-style system of Defense, then I think he would do well.
Philly upgrades Luke to Ballard(although loses the upside) and downgrades Brayden to Kadri(although upside may be equal to or greater).
Terrible trades for Philly and Toronto, great for Vancouver so.... no.
I don't know, getting Kadri a first, Lui, Ballard, and loosing Bryz?
Breakdown like this
Bryz< Luongo
Schenn <Ballard at the moment, could change in the future
Schenn>Kadri 1st first could be high if Bryz is playing for TO, sorry TO fans I just think that little of Bryz.
I think TO is the only team to get hosed, but like I said depends what they think of Bryz.
