rumour has it.....

Alexander Mogilny may end up in Florida with Roberts and Nieuwendyk.The Montreal Canadiens and Florida Panthers are talking about a deal that would see Roberto Luongo and Jose theodore switch teams. Apparently the only hold up is that the Panthers also want Michael Ryder included in the deal.Philadelphia is having trouble reaching a deal with goalie Robert Esche.

I read about that Montrael-Florida trade somewhere (sportsnet.ca maybe). It just doesn't seem to make much sense to either team. Why would Florida move Luongo, a man who is closing in on becoming hte best goalie in the league. I know Keenan is insane, but is he completely insane?Why would Montrael look into trading Theodore, who had a good 2003-04 season and playoff (and who is, by all accounts, a big star in Montrael). Even if they did, why would they throw in Ryder, one of the most promising young players in the league?From what I let myself remember of the Keenan era in Vancouver, Mogilny played well under Keenan, so Mogilny to Florida makes more sense.

Man if this was true Dale, and the Habs didnt do it because of Michael Ryder..BAD move...I checked the dates, you posted this about two weeks after the draft..They drafted Carey Price..Would of been interesting what would happened if Luongo ends up there with Price..Does Price get traded eventually? He doesnt get called up ever ?

 

Interesting stuff.

I think this analysis is even worse (given the benefit of hindsight)...
