I went away for a vacation on Monday after the draft. I figured that between the draft and the Miller trade, that things would be calm until July 1st. I was wrong...again.
Back in October 2017, I wrote an article here, asking Roberto Luongo to retire at the end of 2018 so the Canucks wouldn’t be hit quite as hard by the recapture penalty that was made just for him...and affected a couple other front-end loaded contracts that were being signed at the time.
He never responded.
Instead he played another season with bad hips, then decide to retire and give the Canucks organization one last screw.
