I hate the 8 goals in 7 games argument as it's such a cop out for Lu supporters and doesn't tell the whole story. He was a huge problem come playoff time since you never knew which Luongo was going to show up game from game. He'd either be stellar or become the worst sieve the NHL has ever seen (1st 3 games in VAN 0.67 GAA, 0.979 SV,2 shutouts, 9 periods and 11 seconds play vs. 3 starts in BOS 8.05 GAA, 0.773 SV, approx 5.5 periods of play). That's INCONSISTENT and doesn't give your team a chance to win. Wouldn't have mattered if the Canucks had scored 22 goals in 7 games, they still would've lost with Lu's performance in BOS.
Also, Thomas was stellar, give him credit. The Canucks peppered him often with shots, but unlike Lu he could keep his team in it every game which is why he has the Cup, Vezina and Conn Smythe and Lu has nothing.
