That came out of nowhere but not surprising as I expect he may have asked out again.

So happy for Luongo to get out of that classless organization.

Feel good for Luongo if true. It was becoming increasingly difficult to hate him just because he was a Canuck.

Now I can go back to liking him. However, I also enjoyed watching the drama year after year. Hopefully the Canucks got bent over backwards on the deal.

Renaud Lavoie is as legit a source that you could get, especially for a Luongo rumour, have to think this is true.

I hope Tim Thomas is part of this trade.

Also helps the Flames in terms of draft positioning.
