I don't think that's TOO far of a stretch either, but the 2 goalies have to be willing to do that for it to work. For a chance at a good run at the cup, I can see Lu willing to give up another 10 regular season games to Schneider and Schneider willing to play 1b for another season. Although many are saying that Lu is unwilling to give up his starting role, and Cory is unwilling to not be a starter.

Regarding Lu to TO, I'd be hardpressed to think Burke would give up Schenn/Gardiner/1st. But he would be willing to mortgage his team's future to get them into the playoffs, basically its the team's future vs. his own future. I'd pull that deal off in a heart beat, and I'd also pull off that deal in a heart beat without Schenn. Gardiner alone will give us a good shot at landing Schultz for 3 yrs at entry level pricing, basically a 2 for 1 deal to rejuvenate our blueline for pennies on the cap so we can stop having to play plugs like Rome and Alberts. Schenn MAY have potential as a good shut down d-man, some say he has been improperly developed and too much pressure placed on him. He is young still, but he isn't cheap for what he has brought to the table so far, so there is a risk taking on Schenn's salary if he has topped out already.
