Rumour is Burke is closing in on a deal with Tampa for the 2nd round pick.

Didn't hear any rumors about Burke closing in on a deal, only reports that Tampa has made an offer to Toronto. It's a pretty one sided deal and I'm sure there's lots of profanity being offered by Burke to the other party. It's going to take ALOT more than what's being offered to get Luke Schenn out of Toronto.

Maple Ridge native Andrew Ladd is banned from Roosters for life, according to a reader board above the country caberet in Pitt Meadows the morning after the Chicago Blackhawks eliminated the Vancouver Canucks from the NHL playoffs. The Blackhawks forward scored the game-winning goal in overtime of Game 4 last week. He also assisted on the tying goal in that game and was a physical presence throughout the series.

Seabrooke is from Tsawwassen and believe me, if the Hawks win the cup, the whole town would congratulate him. His dad is pretty well known around Tsawwassen and Ladner

Burke told Luke Schenn not to worry because he's not been traded.

Schenn is clearly the player Burke wants to build the team around. Regardless of how talented Tavares or Hedman are, they have 0 NHL experience and it would be a huge risk to trade their defenseman of the future for the right to pick either player.
Schenn, Kaberle and the 7th overall pick is too steep a price to pay just to move up 5 spots. If Tavares is taken first overall don't expect Burke to attempt to move up and get Hedman since that's not the man he's after. The Leafs arent in that bad of a spot right now and they'll still be able to pick up a good player like Brayden Schenn or Evander Kane.

With a 3.50 goals-against average and an. 879 save percentage in the playoffs, fans clearly didn’t see Luongo at full potential.
Despite the number of records posted in the regular-season as an NHL goalie in his career, his futile attempts to lift his team past the second round—albeit only having two opportunities to do so with the Canucks in the postseason—has also afflicted his being. | Where are these numbers coming from?
He had a .914 save percentage and 2.52 GAA this playoffs and career numbers of .930% and 2.09 in the playoffs. |

Let's see:
*** Wellwood was held to a lot of responsibility for the team's struggles early in the season despite being a 3rd liner getting paid $1 million and playing pluggers minutes. Yet the people who are paid 3x his salary who also contributed to those struggles were laid blameless and at best, Luongo was just given a passing mention?
*** Naslund gets run out of town for not being a 50 goal scorer he once was at $6 million a year. Yet the lack of success doesn't seem to apply to Luongo. Yes Luongo couldn't do it all but neither did Naslund (yet the fans expected nothingless from Naslund). Oh wait, it's Roberto freakin' Luongo.
*** Yeah, it's no big deal to lose Ohlund and criticize Edler, but lets exempt Willie Mitchell despite being severely overrated. There's a reason why he plays with a league-reputable longer stick and plays a stay-at-home style defence because he has a lot of skill & speed to compensate for. But you know, those other guys got nothing on this BC boy.
Seriously, it's one thing to support your local team, but it's another to be a homer.
