dorrcoq Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 All we need...another new guy who can't search, posts redundant information labelled as "fact", and wouldn't know a great goalie and a truly first class individual if one smacked him in the face Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuckNuckNucks Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 That's not true, it's just something that the dumb media here in Vancouver made up. We literally have 24/7 coverage of the Canucks, and in order for all of them to feel like they're not just repeating what the next guy's saying, they start making crap up. I'd love to take half of the media here and get them to do really in depth analysis of the other teams... make them watch games other then Canucks' On a sidenote, I do agree with the rest of your post and we should be looking to get a top 6 forward in the summer in a sign and trade.

Plaguez Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Disagree. The only negative impact is for the sky is falling sheep on CDC..there is no negative impact for the team. 2 Great goalies..yeah..what a terrible problem to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 You are bang on with the media which I failed to mention was probably the origin of this goalie issue. As for who we would trade him for? We have such a deep team. Schneider and Raymond for Stamkos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.Am.Canuck. Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 your a complete jackass. Lu being the most consistent player on the canucks? ridiculous, everything you said is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmotamed Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 What if we won the cup this year, just hypothetically speaking... Would Cory want to stick around and hope for another maybe in the next few seasons? We'll see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuckNuckNucks Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 What about Kirk Mclean.Fans had nothing to do with how he played. In fact if his head was screwed up because one of is teammates was playing around with is wife. As for Cory having a negative affect on the team thats your assumption. Never had there been a good bond between two goaltenders and the team hasn't been negative. In fact they're happy to have two great goaltenders on the team. Quit reading into the media. You have no idea whats going on in the dressing room so how can you say its been a negative affect? Funny Cory had an interview not too long ago stating he likes it here and likes to win. Even stated whats the point of starting somewhere else when you may lose most of your games!!!! Part of you wish Cory would start so fans may kick him to the curb in a few months. And you talk about lack of support as the reason this team doesn't have a cup but here you are hoping that Cory gets kicked to the curb?Thats a contradiction isn't it..And what happens if he's turns out to be a better goaltender? Most of the problems starts with the MEDIA trying to stir the pot when their nothing there. !!! Not the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merci Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 If Luongo let's in 5 goals in any game of the SCF and we still lose, I can guarantee Luongo will be heading somewhere for a top 4 defensemen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-AJ- Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 My only wonder for Schneids so far is whether he can perform in the playoffs. People forget that Schneider hasn't exactly played lights out in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevlar Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 It is very obvious that the OP is just trolling here by the choice of words he uses. He does have a few legitimate points but it is really too early to comment on what will happen. He is also trying to integrate in our minds that there is a negative effect with Cory being here. I think he is a fan of another team that would love to have Cory in his team. Just as a word of warning to Canucks fans everywhere (as someone had already pointed out)... do not expect the #1 draft pick or 3 first rounders or anything outrageous. We, as fans, tend to over price our assets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIBdaQUIB Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 But he'll never get starter in Vancouver. That is where the problem lies. He's got some value. Especially if he performs his brilliant magic during the Playoffs, his stock will go up. MG I think is banking on this and will use it to his advantage this Summer. But Lu is our goalie. We have to stay the course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vansicle Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I still think Schneider would be a smarter option for our future. Not to mention, he can win NOW as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alt kilgore Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 Everything is resting on this years playoffs. I only hope that pressure helps Lu instead of hampers him. Lu could have a melt down in one of the series and we get behind 3 games to 1, where he lets in early soft goals. Cory takes over....and we go all the way with him and win the Cup. or Lu could play every game and lead us to the Cup or the first scenario only Cory can't hold the fort and we lose anyways. or the second scenario only Lu can't quite win it all. or They are pingponged throughout the playoffs and we lose anyways or They are pingponged throughout the playoffs and we win or a lot of other tangents including injuries forcing a decision. If #1 scenario happens, I can see, and would hope, Gillis trying to talk Lu out of his NTC and maybe unloading him in the Summer. Because if that happened and we STILL get rid of Cory in the Summer you may see Riot 3.0 in Vancouver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NuckNuckNucks Posted April 3, 2012 Author Share Posted April 3, 2012 This. I agree with op that there isn't room for both in Vancouver, but the smart money sends Lou and keeps Schneider. He's younger and hasn't even peeked in his ability yet. Most likely he gets better and better for many years to come. Lou, on the other hand, as great as he has played, will most likely not continue to improve. At best he staves off a decline in his performance for a couple of more years. Realistically, though, he declines in his performance. It makes more sense, strategically/tactically, to keep Schneider and send Lou. Whether that can be done remains to be seen, but ask any lawyer, every contract can be renegotiated, and if needed, the Canucks could find Lou a good home.
