Decent pick in Horvat, not the best player available but the Canuck's needed a center. Thought both first round picks were good but the return for Schneider was not what they were hoping for.
Lack is still injured I believe and is not available to start the year. Hip surgery I believe. The new goalie is a complete unknown, in the Berra, Ramo area. Could be good could wash out.
I have no doubt that Luongo is a professional and will honour his contract but make no mistake, he wants out of Vancouver and has for awhile. The issues go farther back than Schneider getting his contract and named #1. If he sticks around I cannot see him playing out his contract. Nice big fat cap hit to the Canuck's when he retires...
