NHL Transactions, Injuries & Rumours

well he doesn't say the team is not a mystery, he just doesn't mention anything about a team. He only talks about players and has said that the players returning are not what everyone thinks.

Well it now does make more sense... now that Burke's firing due to the scandal being distractions to the team coming up to surface a bit clearer. I guess Luongo coming to us is something that was bound to happen?!

TSN: We have a potential deal in place with one team that has to do something with another player that they have — and it's not who anybody thinks it is

sounds like the player not team.

same thing quoted on SN but a lot more speculation in the article from the writer. I still fail to see how it is a "mystery" team and not a mystery player. Edm and Cgy news radio both have the trade going to Toronto as well. I don't know, I hope you are right as I don't want lou to go to the TML, but I fail to see how we could assume it is to anyone other than teams already in the battle with either TSN or SN's articles.

The way I'm understanding the quote is they have a potential deal in place, but the recipient team has to deal with another player on their roster before making the deal.

That team is the Philadelphia Flyers and the player is Chris Pronger. Philly hasn't placed him on LTIR so his cap is on the books atm. Once they move him to LTIR they have space for Luongo's contract. Speculation is he wasn't on LTIR because they wanted to buy him out; and you can't buy someone out on LTIR.

Not to mention Philly are regretting ever signing Bryz and will be buying him out in the summer. The top 2 candidates to replace him that are being discussed: Luongo and Mason according to my buddy in Philly who's a die hard Flyers fan.

Book it.

Honestly what I think the hold up is that Lou has to say yes and the other team has to do something. So who knows. I hope you are right with Philly, I would love Lou to go to a good team to finish his career. No idea what they would send back our way.

still think it is Toronto though

[Shep]

My guess is PHILADELPHIA and they have to find somebody, anybody, to take Bryz. Pronger to the IR frees up space, but they won't have Bryz and Luongo on the books.

Holmgren has proven to be a crazy ass mother fucker. If Luongo cost is "cheap" than he could afford to sell Bryz cheapish and break even at worse. More takers for Bryz IMO. Contract is shorter and it just isn't working out in Philly.

That's the only logical sense if something has to be done with a player first.

[Shep]

For Toronto, maybe Leafs have to get rid of Komisarek or something? But that shouldn't be hard.

Philly makes sense IMO. They won't buy out Bryz. That's insanity..

[shooker]

Couldn't the something has to be done with a player first be Lou agreeing to waive his NTC? Lol or that a player on the other team has to also agree to waive his NTC. There are really endless possibilities to what that could mean.

I hope its like Left field and we trade him to WSH for Mojo or something.

a 3-way deal would be hilarious.


Lou to PHI
Bryz to TOR
Remier & _____ to VAN

entire world would say WTF just happened

Quite true. Could be on Lou or another NTC.

That'd shake the hockey world by storm.

Wrong sir, he's not been placed on LTIR and his cap hit counts....therefore he can still be bought out. teams have to keep putting guys on IR each year, aka Boston just had Savard fly in for tests and to put him back on the LTIR for this year.

poop

maybe it is Pronger then


That said, i think Luongo is heading to the flyers. i'd think the player they are talking about is Bryz

YOU SHUT UP BRO

Katie is fucking hot

Pronger is on a 35+ contract. Even bought out the contract counts against the cap.
