Fuck..for anyone who didn't just hear/see the Lu interview, Lu himself said Aqualini phones him the morning of draft day asking if he can come over since he's in FLA, sits down and has Lu turn off the TV around the 4th pick and tells him they have traded Corey as Lu's phone is going off the hook with shocked texts? Wtf..

For once, I do agree with this ownership/management way of telling Luongo about the Schneider trade face to face instead of Lu founding out for himself on TV.
If I was in Luongo's shoes, I would want the owner to tell me in person about what's going down on draft day instead of finding out myself on the TV with no advance notice.
Imagine if Luongo found out about the Schneider trade on draft day on TV without Aquilini or Gillis telling him anything in advance.

I knew and always have said that Schneider would be traded to the devils for henrique but atleast we got horvat who was also an OHL MVP.
Close enough with the big earl predictions...  | |

We will somehow end up without either...
Lack, Cannata, Eriksson..... not that bad but none will be #1 ready when Lu announces he wants out (after the season and Olympics), then we're so fucked...haha what will Gillis say then?
Still funny how they tried to convince everyone that both players were happy 100% no problems, Lu fine as the #2 goaltender...yeah... if Lu was happy he wouldn't have considered looking for a way to void his contract (running away from that 40mil). He wanted to play pretty badly as a #1 instead of wasting a season sitting.

For obvious reasons the Canucks management played Schneider to up his value while letting Luu warm the bench with an ipad.

Wow after watching that video, Luongo should be a GOAT canuck if he sucks it up and play in Vancouver. 
Only the fans can welcome him back making him feel wanted again... if not i see a trade coming.

^ Only fans will push him wanting a trade, trust me.
Canucks fans are best to keep quiet and enjoy hockey while its still good.

canucks fans and media here are brutal...we got our legs in a jimmy hoping Luongo doesn't leave but smelling blood if he makes one mistake this upcoming season.
Only difference is Luongo is fed up and doesn't give a flying fuk no more. He'll leave if theres one ounce of criticism coming from anyone.

I went back and forth with Botchford today on twitter because he told me before that Ghallagers report on Lu nixxing a trade to TO was 100% accurate and I didn't know what I was talking about
So today I tweeted at him saying so now that he's on national media saying both him and MG never once had a trade in place that Lu turned down and that Ghallager and the media clowns are just spewing lies he came back with "you can choose who you want to believe"
Essentially saying Lu's version on the matter is a lie

certain fans never know when to stfu. the media never shuts the fuck up because they have to sell something even when it's not news. but c'est la vie, this is life in a hockey mad market. the way things look, lu is 99.9% going to leave after this season one way or another and i don't blame him one bit.
i can only hope the fans continue to show him support for everything he has done for us and will do for us this up coming season. the reaction from fans when we all thought he was going to leave us was kind of surprising considering how many people constantly shit on him throughout the years. then all of a sudden it's "zomg lu is leaving? nuuuuu please stay i beg u". bandwagoners to the fucking max...
^ that's not directed to anyone here in particular btw. just a general observation.

Posted via RS Mobile | Lu could be lying to save face, who knows for sure? Only a few people. Like he said, believe who you want, that's the best you can do until both sides corroborate the story.
