Bertuzzi was the principle asset acquired in last June’s deal that sent Luongo, the team’s franchise goaltender, to Vancouver. Florida also got goaltender Alex Auld, out for the season with a knee injury, and top-four defenseman Bryan Allen. Defenseman Lukas Krajicek also joined the Canucks.

Luongo gives up a goal less per game than the goalie the Panthers got in return. [...] [...] Congrats to Ed, who has become the Florida Panthers’ most reliable net tender.
