Robert Luongo is unlikely to return to the Vancouver Canucks next season.
“Who knows what’s going to happen,” Luongo told the media two days after the team was swept in their opening round playoff series against the San Jose Sharks. “Right now we’re at that stage where I’m waiting to hear from (GM Mike Gillis). I’m sure we’ll talk. I don’t know exactly how it’s going down and I feel we’re having this discussion all over again for some reason.”
Gillis claimed in his end-of-the-season press conference that it’s “unlikely” Luongo will be back.
