Reffing was even for both sides,we all know who's fault it was..oh oh here comes the ruler across the knuckles for voicing my opinion again...its kind of mild this time of year here in Communist Russia

Luongo's last 5 games..just horrendous Save% in 3 of the 5,1 avg and 1 good..not good enough to win any series,and in the Fla game 6 posts!..i rest my case..Cloutier looks better

should a 6 million dollar goalie have a save% of under .850 in 3/5 games ?with one game 6 posts? shouldve been 4/5..think about that

and 4/5 teams are currently out of the playoffs or just barely hanging on to the last few spots..not what u would call powerhouses..and this goalie will suddenly turn it up quite a few notches against superior teams? really? and im the one who's out to lunch?

Cant count those pre- olympic games...the whole team stunk it up and too many players were thinking about the Olympics. Of course players are going to go through the occasional mini-slump. You need to look at the bigger picture and quit whining about everytime Luongo gets in a mini slump. Over the course of the season he has been great. I would take him over any other goalie in the league aside from Miller.

Rinne's looked pretty good
3/7/2010 3:45 PM
I would take Backstrom,Roloson,Hiller,Osgood,Ward,Miller,Giguere,Quick,Thomas,Kiprusoff,Nabokov,Mason,Vokoun,Lundquist,Fleury, over him..but thats just me..ive always thought the idea was to win a cup?

Mini slumps seem to come down the stretch or in must win games..he's let in another 2 softees again today ..lets see if he can give his mates a chance to tie it up..

11th in shots ag

13th in GAA

14th in save%

he's average,not top 3 or top 10 just average..if ppl just admitted he was just an average goalie and VCR can get by with an average goalie then fine.i can live with that but one of the best?..FARCE

Where was Osgood ranked the year Detroit won? How about Fleury last year? Just wondering?
3/7/2010 4:37 PM
MA Fleury 2009 - 23rd in GAA, 21st in save%, 7th in wins.

Chris Osgood 2008 - 1st in GAA, 16th in Save%, 19th in wins

J.S Giguere 2007 - 5th in GAA, 7th in save%, 10th in wins



Roberto Luongo 2010 - 13th in GAA, 12th in save%, 6th in wins.

I would have to say Luongo stats are not great but compare pretty well with the last 3 cup winning goaltenders. My point is that when we are in the P/O's players raise their games to another level. I think Luongo proved that he could do that with the Olympics.

Styckman are you forgetting last years melt down in Chicago? and lets be serious here, Luongo really didnt face a lot of tough shots in the Olympics,his defence was the big difference.. sure he makes the odd great save but he also lets in 1 or 2 soft ones a game..all im saying is he isnt that great..i hope he comes up big in the playoffs..but this greatest goalie in the game today is just comical

as for Gillis isnt the goal to win the conference and make the finals? who here thinks the Canucks are good enough to get by the Hawks with the current team? ..I dont and as a result put the blame directly on Gillis's shoulders..standing pat reminds me of the Nonis era..its unforgiveable..why is C.Schneider still on this team? do we have to go thru this year after year? always being conservative planning for the future..its been 40 god damn years of future..enough already!

Why so much hatred for Luongo, did he sleep with your girlfriend when he moved to Vancouver?
