Is Luongo Florida bound?

Update from Team 1040: “Mike Gillis says still nothing imminent regarding a possible Luongo trade.”

Vancouver Sun’s Brad Ziemer: “Gillis vague on status of Luongo trade talks. Says sometimes you think you are close and things change.”

From George Richards, who reported the earlier rumour about Luongo’s pending return to Forida, tweeted: “#FlaPanthers asst GM Mike Santos says they haven’t spoken to #Canucks since draft.”

Miami Herald reporter George Richards tweeted the following about an hour ago:

Word on street is ‪#FlaPanthers‬ are internally getting ready for the return of Roberto Luongo

As discussed this morning, GM Dale Tallon bought out Matt Bradley and waived Mike Santorelli yesterday. This report comes on the heels of Darren Dreger calling the Panthers the clear front runners.

If this does indeed go down, all of Leafs Nation will be curiously awaiting news of the return headed Vancouver’s way.

But we have a voice. Best thing ever was the fire Wilson chants and about time the voice was heard.

@Alec_Brownscombe i wouldn’t give him 2 years. he is looking to win a cup. wheather its being a starter or sitting on the pine. so he went to the team he beleives will win in the next 2 years. i would not want luongo. bad contract that no one would touch. rumors for what gillis wants for for luo was Hockey Insider?@TMLhockeymediaI have confirmation: Grabovski+Franson+cond 1st rounder of 2013 is the counter offer from the Canucks. This is 100% confirmed…that a huge over payment for a guy who makes close to 7 million a year for the next 7 years.i really don’t think he’s the answer. i would rather pay that and a bit more for nash than luo. what i would do is either go with what we got reimer and scrivens get shults and get either parise or nash. we have 12 dmen in our system 6 nhl dmen and 6 waiting in the wings. get what we need….consistant scoring. defemce will follow.

No, Vokoun would've waived for Toronto, but Burke didn't want to give him 2 years. That was the report from McKenzie or Dreger anyways.
