Roberto Luongo started in the NHL with the Florida Panthers. During the 2006 offseason, Luongo was planning to stay in Florida. But instead, the manager, Mike Keenan sent him to the Vancouver Canucks, along with Lukas Krajicek, in return for Todd Bertuzzi, Auld, and Allen. Luongo first said that he was upset because he was leaving so suddenly and Vancouver was very far away.
