Loungo:

Chicago now enters the conversation, but the latest development from Vancouver hints that the Panthers are still the frontrunner in the Luongo Sweepstakes.


According to Rumor Central on espn.com, there is speculation that Vancouver GM Mike Gillis would demand that Jose Theodore would be part of the deal that would send Luongo to Florida. With back-up netminder Scott Clemmensen re-signed to a two year deal, that would make Luongo the starter with Clemmensen behind him, and top prospect Jakob Markstrom would still be waiting in the wing in San Antonio.


There is a hiccup in that scenario, according to those sources: Theodore has a limited no-trade clause that reveals only ten teams to whom he could be dealt without issues, and the Canucks are not part of that list.
