They could have had Spezza too. Instead they are still paying Alexei Yashin a salary.

Just another situation where the 4th line plug survives and the high talent player suffers a shortened career.

I hear green text on CP doesn't have to be neon seizure inducing green.

What? Not even close!
They have two capable starters and are sending one to the minors.
The Flames are picking up Joey McDonald from their extensive list of players to acquire.

If you seriously think either of their goalies are "average at best" there really isn't much point debating. Luongo's career speaks for itself and Schneider, despite an iffy start this season, would solidify the goaltending for a number of teams in the league for years to come (Flames and Oilers included, though Dubnyk is slooooowly winning me over - not there yet though).

"their goalies"? Your goalies, and i was talking about Schneider. Luongo is average but has above average pads which make him better.
Oh i forgot about his twitter account, which puts Luongo into superstar range.
