Dubnyk's not worried about Luongo rumors
Devan Dubnyk - G - Edmonton Oilers
Jan. 24, 2013 - 10:30 AM ET

Devan Dubnyk isn't worried about the rumors suggesting that Roberto Luongo might be dealt to the Edmonton Oilers.

Such a trade would cost Dubnyk his starting gig, but there's not much he can do about that. "Everybody likes things to talk about and I'm sure it'll be that way for years to come," Dubnyk said. "It's certainly frustrating at times, but I've always said I'm confident I can do this job. I feel like my teammates feel the same way and so does the organization." We don't recommend fantasy owners worry too much about the Luongo rumors yet either. While anything's possible, Edmonton and Vancouver are division rivals, so it's not a ideal scenario for the Canucks. On top of that, the Oilers are probably at least a couple years away from being serious Stanley Cup contenders and Luongo makes far more sense for a team that's trying to win it all now.
