No, it's Markstrom and another player to VAN for Luongo.

 

#panthers are sending Jacob Markstrom and another player to #canucks for Roberto Luongo #tvasports

 

 

Yeah.. his first tweet was confusing..

omg so many trades and it's not even deadline day

Caps are over cap right now so they have to make another move before the deadline.  I feel so sorry for Canucks fans right now because that organization is a hot mess.  What isn't to like about Andy MacDonald?  Is he slow?  I don't watch the Islanders much but what I have seen he is good.  Also I thought you couldn't trade injured players for some reason, like ones who are on LTIR.  Isn't Robidas still on LTIR?

The trade in a vacuum is pretty fair. The problem is that MacDonald is a UFA to be who'll likely command a relatively big cap hit (as any defenseman worth a damn will in FA) and that we have a capable defenseman in Erik Gustaffsson sitting in the press box way too often. If this means Meszaros and/or Grossmann is gone and we end up with something like Coburn/Timonen, MacDonald/Streit, Schenn/Gus, Gill/AHL Call-Up, it's fine. Even if one of Mez or Grossmann stays and sits, it's fine. I'm more annoyed about the misuse of assets on the team and the overall construction of the D than the trade itself.
