NHL rumors Are Flyers in on Roberto Luongo sweepstakes

Luongo had a 2.41 GAA and .919 save percentage last season in Vancouver. (Getty Images) Preview: | | | | Since Roberto Luongo has been on the trade market, only a handful of teams seemed to be seriously pursuing him. By a handful, we mean two or po sibly three: Florida, Toronto and Chicago.Welp, a fourth team has entered the picture and while certainly a surprise, this team probably shouldn't be.Say what?In case you forgot -- and we're sure you haven't -- the Flyers already have one goaltender locked up for the next millennia and for big money to boot: Ilya Bryzgalov. But at the same time it's no secret that Bryzgalov didn't have the best of seasons in his debut campaign Sami Vatanen Women Jersey with the Flyers and the idea of many more years of that isn't nece sarily appealing.But can the idea of having two burdensome contracts sharing one net be a great idea? Doesn't seem like it but remember, the Flyers will have two buyouts to use next summer if they so choose and Bryzgalov is an early candidate. A $5.67 million cap hit through 2020 doesn't seem so appetizing after Bryzgalov's .909 save percentage and 2.48 GAA last season.Considering the Flyers are already nearing the $70 million cap, they would have to send some money back to the Canucks in a swap (it's doubtful the Canucks would take advantage of the new rule that allows them to take some of the cap and salary from Luongo's contract). One name that to go to Vancouver is defenseman Nicklas Gro smann.As to the denial from Holmgren, well, we'll believe it when we see it. He's denied over and over again before about trades -- Jeff Carter seemed particularly upset about it last season -- before making the move. Naturally he won't say anything else.For the record, Canucks GM Mike Gillis more or le s denied it too. It wasn't directly aimed at the Flyers situation, but all situations surrounding his goalie on the block.Mike Gillis says "nothing" has been happening on the Jaycob Megna Men Jersey Luongo front. Needs to wait for CBA to ratified first. Chris Johnston (@reporterchris) We've heard many times that there are more teams in the mix for Luongo than it was believed and perhaps that's true. But we also know that the market isn't very strong for Luongo considering his contract and that he's on the wrong side of 30. It's po sible this made its way out there to up the ante for a trade. The point is, it seems incredibly unlikely to actually happen but with Holmgren and the Flyers, you can never know.
