LittleHurt05 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 On the 6th day, Gary said Let There Be Hockey. I'd like to say that I'm boycotting games as a sign of protest, but no point in lying, I'll be at the UC soon in my Hawks sweater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 My emotions today went from a kid on xmas, to extremely pissed off, to a state of confusion - this is what we want, our sport back and our games back, but I didn't know how to feel about letting myself get into it, and figuring out how exactly I will do that. Combining emotion 1 with emotion 2 put me in a weird spot for the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combining emotion 1 with emotion 2 put me in a weird spot for the day. This is how I've felt since hearing the news. Then I thought of the glorious Indianhead sweater and the fact that I lived through the worst of the Bill Wirtz era, so now that we have an owner who cares I'm just going to jump back in with both feet and enjoy it. Now, a goalie please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combining emotion 1 with emotion 2 put me in a weird spot for the day. I was very lukewarm when it happened. I'm kinda happy, but at the same time, all my enthusiasm was pretty well sapped out by the length of the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 As a casual fan, I said, cool. I watch the Blackhawks and really nobody else. It is good winter television which is nice for the next two months. Glad they are back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted January 8, 2013 Share Posted January 8, 2013 Luongo oks trade anywhere Vancouver Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo is in Florida preparing for the 2012-13 season, but for which team he plays that campaign remains in question. Luongo told the Toronto Sun he has given Vancouver GM Mike Gillis "the green light" to do whatever is best for the team, including trading the three-time all-star goaltender.

Luongo told the Toronto Sun he has given Vancouver GM Mike Gillis "the green light" to do whatever is best for the team, including trading the three-time all-star goaltender. He has to be almost untradeable under the new CBA http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberto_Luongo Several days later, on September 2, the Canucks announced that they had signed Luongo to a 12-year contract extension worth $64 million for a $5.33 million annual salary cap hit.[97] The front-loaded deal, which will expire by the time Luongo is 43 and includes a no-trade clause, sees him make $10 million in 2010–11, then approximately $6.7 million annually through to 2017–18, $3.3 million and $1.6 million the subsequent two seasons, before tailing off to $1 million for the final two years.[97] The contract contains two additional clauses to circumvent the no-trade clause that allow Luongo to facilitate a trade after the fifth year and for the Canucks to also facilitate a trade after the seventh year.
