SJ will be undergoing a change this off-season...they have to. Don't you think there's a possibility they could ship one of their forwards for Lu?
Lu will probably go East but there's always the possibility. In order of likelihood, I'd say Tampa, Florida, NJ, Toronto, Washington, SJ, NYI.

but trading for Lu would seem pretty backwards to me, like I've said before I get that lu is better than Niemi. But Niemi's stock is as low as its ever going to be, they won't net anything decent trading him right now and imho niemi's poor statistics was more a reflection of how poor our pk was and even with that said they were quite similar to Luongos, then you trade a pavelski/clowe + pick for luongo? just filling a hole by creating another imo. The cost just would be too much for a sharks team with no prospects with the ability to replicate what a pavelski/clowe/marleau could bring to the table and that would be the MINIMUM for lu. And no please don't give us Mason Raymond for our top 6 replacement
