Gillis was lucky that someone even took Luongo's garbage contract. Last season he was asking too much from Toronto or Florida but those two just thanks but no thanks. So in the end Gillis ended up losing his supposedly future starting goaltender Cory Schneider and settled with a rookie goaltender and a backup goalie who couldn't hack it in Florida. If the Canucks don't make the playoff this season, Gillis is good as gone and maybe Torts will follow unless the new GM saves him.
