If I was Gillis, the more Luongo would talk about not returning, the less I'd worry about his contract.
There seems to be a good chance that he simply won't report, and thus the problem would be solved at least for a while.
Luongo would then propably become the first Canadian NHL star to move permanently to the KHL. They might pay him pretty good money for the optics alone, plus he's still a very good goalie and would do great in that league.
