I would take Bobby Lou over Bryz, having said that I think Bryz will bounce back this season.

If this does happen in no way will Shenn be dealt.

The Leafs didnt want to give up Gardiner and thats the rumor why Burke was fired.
I still dont know how we could do this deal without giving back salary. Ive read we are just 2.5 million under the cap right now. Maybe Briere goes back the other way? Although I would hate to do that. We need scoring depth.

Something tells me we could have made a package surrounding JVR if we knew then what we know now

All I can say is that yes, I would be interested in replacing Bryz with Lu.

Yes, I am extremely skeptical of the price tag

Ya I agree. I dont want to give up anything crazy. I cant see this deal getting done.

I would like to see the FLyers put their nose in on PK Subban.

If Lu couldn't handle the pressure in van what makes anyone think that he could handle Philly? Its basically a lateral move so why give up assets for this especially valuable dmen that are much needed right now? Now if they traded for a younger goalie with a lessor cap hit I could see that being a benificial move.

We dont know wether or not Lu could handle it here. Maybe the change if scenery would help.

Simply put, Luongo>Bryzgalov. If Homer can actually improve out goaltender without giving up a lot, I won't complain.

Yep I hear you but he has to be better as the cap hits higher and longer. I guess they could let him go if it doesn't pan out but I'd rather take my chances with Bryz this year and keep the players we have. Thera a good chance that Bryz shows up vastly improved after a year under his belt.

Well the cap hit is .3 mil more, and if we do acquire Luongo we are off the hook with his cap hit if he retires.

I agree about Bryz though. I still support him and think he will bounce back

Well now according to Adrian Dater the Canucks are asking for Grossmann, and if thay cannot get Grossmann they want Brayde Schenn. LOL wut is happening. I know Homer wont do that (right?), but still.

I have three roster spots I would be willing to trade. Wellwood, Rinaldo/Sestito, and Gervais/Lilja. So yeah

lol, are the nucks 'tarded too? if they cant have grossmann they'll settle for schenn? they have that a little backwards i think. if they cant get grossmann there's no way on god's green and blue earth they'd get schenn? :noidea:

Yep ridiculous this isn't happening. They need to find a young kid to push Bryz out just like Schneider did to Lu. Too bad they didn't trade for him when the oppotunity was there!

If a young goalie came up and played great for us pushing out Bryz it just wouldnt be normal that doesnt happen in Philly oh man but i wish it did so bad.

I still believe Bob would have pushed Bryz if he was given the opportunity to. Management seemed to lack confidence in him though.

If Bob was just a little more consistant and did a little more with his oportunities that Bryz opened up for him i think you are right.
