Neuvirth might be traded due to his lockout comments, I hope to goodness that opens them up as a potential trade partner. Their assets fit us so much better than Toronto.

Really? You want an immediate impact player, right? If so I don't see that being the case.
Thanks for your attempt to be little my opinions on the way this thread has been going. But i actually do know what a cap is believe it or not!! And i think you completely missed the point of what im trying to say. This thread is about Luongo , not about how Vancouver is going to handle having two goalies under contract in a new cba where only "supposed" cap limits have been discussed and by "supposed" i mean no one including me and you know where those parameters lie. Yes i do understand cap implications must be taken into consideration during transactions but telling us our team is gonna be screwed if keep both because we will not give a way Luo for nothing is B.S.

Marcus Johansson for Luongo. I like it except i'm basically sold on holtby being our #1 for many years to come
I'm assuming any team trading for Neuvirth would have to send a goalie back. That's the problem with trying to make a trade during a lockout. Every team is fully assembled for the season and no one has played yet so no one has played themself out of a job yet.
My guess if Neuvirth would be traded it would be for a vet backup for Holtby who is on an expiring deal. Something like Neuvirth + Shultz (cap) for Bulin + 2nd + 4th from Edmonton. I have no clue how that value works out but its the kind of thing I would expect.

Yeah, it doesn't seem likely, as Holtby would still be given the chance to play as a number 1. But you never know. Pittsburgh went and got Vokoun, and no one saw that coming.

I could see Philly being interested, and as far as I know they don't really have anyone to send back with Bobrovsky gone.

Yea but there is absolutely no chance luongo wants to be a backup
To Philadelphia:
Roberto Luongo
Mike Komisarek
Clarke MacArthur
Carl Gunnarsson
Anton Rodin
To Toronto:
Illya Bryzgalov
Andrej Meszaros
To Vancouver:
Scott Hartnell or Jakub Voracek
Philly gets a stay at home d-man to replace Pronger, a much better goaltender, a 2nd/3rd line tweener a young 3rd pairing defender (because of all the injuries) and a decent prospect

Wait, Neuvirth is going to be traded because he backed up a fellow countryman's comments about CBA negotiations? GMGM would be both shortsighted AND a fool to dump Neuvirth for such a stupid reason. He's much smarter than that: doing so would basically be publicly admitting he'd be allowing the inmates to run the asylum.
Or am I missing something? Is the writing on the wall for Neuvirth in Washington for other reasons, and his lockout comment are just an easy excuse to dump him? I admittedly haven't been following the Washington Goaltending Soap Opera this offseason.

Holtby could benefit from the same kind of development that Schnieder went through. If there is one thing Lou has shown is that he can help break in a future goaltending star.

Toronto wants nothing to do with bryzgalov and his contract. Toronto gets reamed hard.

Bryzgalov is still a major upgrade for Toronto. I'd still consider him a top 10-5 NHL goalie right now unless he has another forgettable year like last. But 3 of his last 5 years being at .920+ sv% right now keeps him up there for me even though I'm sure Phoenix has a lot to do with his numbers ala Mike Smith.
Plus Leafs dump Komisarek in the deal without giving up top players/prospect/picks
However it is that contract that is the x factor since its still to be seen if he is a product of Tippet's defensive system or not. I think he's as good as his career average of 2.50 gaa .915 sv% on a team thats not run and gun. But because of that contract, that basically takes away any value he has.

He's not the answer for Toronto, I'd much rather have Tim Thomas for a season or two.

No way to the first one....i can't see were the decent goaltender is.

1 more year of Komi is better than multiple years of Bryz if he is still as loopy as last season.

Honestly, he is not. Bryzgalov has no business being ranked anywhere near the top ten. His stats are very evident of Tippet's system, in addition he is heavily reliant on a defensive style to fortify his numerous weaknesses. Toronto is anything but defensively and I doubt Carlyle does much to deviate from that. Once you factor in the contract, he is easily one of the worst acquisitions for the Leafs.
The second is decent however I doubt San Jose bothers.
I think Burke will trade with someone that will take his calls. I think he will pay for Hiller. If this happens, I'd propose Luongo and Edler for Getzlaf or Perry (or both LOL!). This puts Luongo out of the NW and gives Vancouver a piece they need. Both Getzlaf and Perry are FA next summer. If they are unhappy and have said so, this trade route might work.

If those guys are not happy in ANA. i think they hit the UFA market and look for a payday.

We're not giving up Edler for a rental. And if Anaheim were to lose either, then trade Hiller. They are rebuilding, thus have no need for Luongo.
You realize Edler too could be a rental. Also I'd propose re-signing Getzlaf and Perry and making them our core.
those guys are going to want Parise/Suter money ....
we're dreaming to think we can afford one of them, let alone both
but just for fun .....
Luongo for 1st, whatever prospects Ana likes from TO
then @ deadline, all the TO stuff, our 1st, Edler, my firstborn, whatevr ....for Gerz/Perry ....
