Luongo to Vancouver; Auld, Bertuzzi and Allen to Florida
From a Columbus perspective, this is great news. The rumor mill in Hockeytown had all but put Luongo with the Red Wings for the next season, which would have been beyond frustrating for the rest of the Central Division. With Luongo now on his way to the Canucks, there is much more room to breathe during the regular season, thanks to the unbalanced schedule meaning only a possible four games against Luongo instead of eight.
Personal enjoyment aside, this is a good opening to a hopefully busy draft weekend.
