I have no idea what will happen with that team, and I love it. All of this drama with Torts at the helm, the best comparison I can make to this is the Joker in The Dark Knight. Just total chaos.

I think I made the divorce analogy a while back in this or another thread...there is no way this was ever gonna be back to business as usual for Luongo. Gillis totally botched this situation. I actually kind of feel bad for Luongo and how he got jerked around by his organization, the Vancouver media, and the fans, and now he's stuck with them.
This situation is basically a guy cheating on his wife with a younger girl, finding out the cost of a divorce would be too high and then choosing to dump the girlfriend and try to make the marriage work.
Lottsa luck rebuilding trust after that.

After watching the interview it's pretty obvious there is no way in hell Luongo wants to be a Canuck. It's going to be interesting watching this unfold, especially if he doesn't play well. What a circus.
