Canucks Isles swapping goalies?
Posted 10:03 PM ET | Comments 0
Apparently the Vancouver Canucks and New York Islanders are talking trades. The Islanders have inquired about Roberto Luongo and are interested in the following type of deal. The New York Islanders would move Rick DiPietro and possibly Evgeni Nabokov and some sort of prospect and draft pick for Roberto Luongo.
TSNBobMcKenzie: "It’s believed NYI would, under right circumstances, have interest in VAN G Roberto Luongo, tho 1st order of biz is to gauge cost on Nabokov.
Nabokov is UFA. As for circumstances on Luongo, almost goes without saying it would mean VAN taking Rick DiPietro for compliance buyout.
DiPietro’s buyout is steep, $1.5M per year for next 16 years, not to be confused with Luongo’s buyout #s: a shade over $1.5M x 18 years."
Everything here is speculation but not a rumor as both teams have talked about a situation in moving their goaltenders.

Also the Montreal Canadiens have told Michael Ryder’s agent that Ryder is not a part of the Canadiens plans with new GM Marc Bergevin. For more about Speculation and Rumors http://hockeysources.word...m/rumors-and-specultaion/.
