Devil Dan 56 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 EJ Hradek @EJHradek_NHL 1m To summarize, Schneider & Luongo were traded for a 1st round pick (Bo Horvat), Jacob Markstrom and (reportedly) Shawn Matthias #cantmakeitup Interesting way to look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devs3cups Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Lol Vancouver traded away two great goalies in less than 10 months. Luongo is now the future of FLA and Schneider of NJ! Let's hope Lack is the real deal for them. Edited March 4, 2014 by Devs3cups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redruM Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Was Luongo a panther before he went to Vancouver?? And How does Van trade Luongo & Schnieder?? Is Lack that good??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-Man Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Wow did not see this coming. What an exciting day that again does not include NJ Yes, why can't we have exciting trades for deadline deals for guys like: Doug Gilmour Phil Housley Dave Ellett Deron Quint Bob Corkum Sean O'Donnell Richard Smehlik Viktor Kozlov Ken Klee Brad Lukowich Niclas Havelid Martin Skoula David Steckel Alexei Ponikarovsky Matt D'Agostini Steven Sullivan A lot more misses than hits. Be careful what you wish for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekes Head Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 so what does the goaltending look like in vancouver now? what was the urgency in trading cory over the summer? i still don't get how they went from lu wanting out to shipping schneider to us to NOW having luongo haul ass to florida. it just seems so ass backwards to me.

They had to get rid of one of those guys and they sold the guy who had the much larger trade value. Now they dealt Luongo because he wanted out and they're cutting salary, plus Eddie Lack might be as good these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another reason for Lou to make sure he locks up Schneider this summer, because I'm sure Vancouver would love to rectify their colossal screw-up.

coldply123 Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Lack has worked very hard but he's not as physically gifted. I'm intrigued to see how he does. Markstrom hasn't really made the next step but Matthias is a nice pickup. I think Kesler is a goner tomorrow and despite what Gillis says I think Edler is next in line. He and Torts clearly hate each other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Lack is the real deal for them. Luongo is over 30 years of age, so I don't see the guy being "the future" of FLA. Schneider is a huge question mark for the Devils. He doesn't appear to be a "game-stealing" type of goalie, and besides, he is UFA next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I think VAN truly is going with the cheaper youthful options for a couple years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muevelos Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Markstrom is a bit over rated by some. Florida didn't like him and he hasn't proven anything yet. Maybe he will play better in Vancouver. Good for the sunshine state though. And Schneider has stolen us plenty of games, that's a stupid remark.

I don't think Schneider had a ton of interest in staying in Vancouver long-term, and I doubt he has much interest in going there now that they are apparently selling.

JRZYRIPPER Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 Cory has let in 2 or fewer goals in how many of his last 15 or so starts ? That's damn near stealing a game or two considering the devils are the second lowest scoring team in the league behind buffalo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Not likely and not with the style he plays. Luongo is 35. He's much closer to the end and it'll be in another couple yrs only when he probably can't even assume beyond a 50/50 split. He's had some more frequent injuries the last year or two.

SterioDesign Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 So months ago Mike Gillis turned down an offer for Kadri, Bozak and a first round pick (which was pretty low since it was the Leafs pick) for Luongo... then months later all they got was a 9th overall pick (Bo Harvat) Markstrom & Matthias for Luongo AND Schneider... lolz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devs3cups Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 (edited) Luongo is over 30 years of age, so I don't see the guy being "the future" of FLA. Schneider is a huge question mark for the Devils. He doesn't appear to be a "game-stealing" type of goalie, and besides, he is UFA next year. What I meant to say is that Luongo will be the number 1 goalie in FLA for the years to come, unless they manage to trade him in a couple of years, which I really doubt.They could always buyout his contrac. And as for Schneider, I truly believe LL wouldn't have traded a top 10 pick for him if he wasn't pretty much sure he would be able sign him up long-term. With an assured number 1 spot, good $, good years, a good defense in front of him in the next couple of years, and a competitive team for the playoffs pretty much every year, I believe Schneider will sign longterm in NJ. But hey, what do I know? I'm pretty sure that's going to happen, but we'll see this summer or the summer after that.
