Came across this interesting statistic on Twitter the other day – since December of 2009, Roberto Luongo is 13-0-6 in 19 regular season games in which he has faced 40 or more shots on goal (this record includes recent shootout wins in Colorado and Nashville). Allowing more shots on goal is never an advisable defensive strategy, but like many other goalies, Luongo tends to play better when he is busy and involved in the game early. The Canucks may be interested in trading for Cam Barker after seeing this statistic.

Trade Cam Barker to the Canucks? Not quite as crazy as it first sounds, although I’m not sure they have anyone that could really strengthen our lineup.

Doesn’t matter. As long as Barker is not on the team, the Oilers cannot resign him.
Too true!
I seem to recall the last #13 they traded returned a 2nd. Maybe history repeats itself?
(yes I know he’s maybe worth a 4th, but I’m an Oilers fan – blue skying is all I’ve got right now!)
