 Asked about his role with the Canucks following the defeat, Luongo told reporters that he would waive his no-trade clause if management asked him to.In June 2012, Schneider was signed to a three-year, $12 million contract, which made Luongo expendable, but Gillis' efforts to trade Luongo were unsuccessful due to his hefty US$64 million, 12-year contract, a contract that Gillis has since been criticized for negotiating.In the 2012–13 season, which was shortened by a lockout, the Canucks finished with a record of 26–15–7 and won the Northwest Division title.
