smurf47 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 It is. But like I said, the stats still don't mean everything. If FLA got Lu, it would help them more than just one fewer goal against every 8 games. Stats are good for a general idea of how good a player is, but only by watching them play will you get a proper evaluation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Get real canuck fans Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Yes, but Ward's cap hit is 6.3m now. Niemi is 3.8 now According to capgeek there are 8 goalies who have higher hits that Luongo. Ward is the only one with a ring. As a matter of fact in the top 25 there are only 7 cup winners(and thats counting both Bruins and bryz who was the back-up at the time) Players can only stay on ELCs for so long BTW Schneider has the 15th highest cap hit and has won nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Mind Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 And if I thought you were a goaltending coach or had some profound knowledge of the position, your opinions might carry some weight, but my guess is that you don;t and thus just am empty , baseless opinion. Stats really do matter, never moreson than in goaltending. To disregard them and base opinions on watching on tv...is laughable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Cory Did lose 2-3 last year but only a fool would think he did not give us elite goaltending in EVERY game........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf47 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 If you were to either watch a goalie play, or just look at his stats, you'd get a better evaluation by watching him play. Besides, if it's all just opinion, why does yours hold more merit than mine? Pretty sure everyone's opinion holds the same value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riviera82 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 But of course, who cares about the fact that the team couldn't score at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 You mean Luo's job was to play d and forward and goal ? Certainly,there was little to no goal scoring going on and all the D save Tanev were injured so Luo did his best given the sad circumstances. Time to accept the situation as it was and stop laying the blame on one player when the whole team was pulverized,Riviera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodee Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Your ignorance astounds me is clearly a derogatory term and I'm sure you understand that. When you make a statement like that you are calling him ignorant. There is a rule that you can not make direct attacks on other members, calling someone ignorant is a direct attack.

Nino Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Nino mate, you are way too easily offended. You should see what I have been called .............and never reported it ...........wellllllll not quite true I reported a whole pack of people after I was given an undeserved warning, but I was pissed off..............needless to say nothing happened. But life goes on............this is CDC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nuck nit Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I see.So you get an "undeserved warning" and then report me for what you interpret as an insult to another poster. This board is chock a block full of insults,Nino. Insults for players,coaches,GM's ,Fin- and especially other poster's opinions. There is a huge difference between insulting somebody and really threatening somebody. All posters have opinions and that is what this board is all about.

nuck nit Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Nino,lighten up in your quest for mod ville. I can respond to anything you say and I will so get used to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurf47 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 You should get a ban and I'm sure at some point you will. You post like you know that others can't hit you like you would be if you were face to face with someone. You are trolling, this is the text book example of it. You are insulting other posters directly not just there ideas. If the mods followed there own rules you would get a ban. And stop sending me PM's I'm sure your more mature then your acting.

Pouria Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Lu is one of the best goalies in the game today(top 7) canucks fans are the worst in the league(bottom 5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EddieVedder Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Yes the team couldn't score, and nobody expects Luongo to score goals. His job was to stop them and for an "elite" or even average goaltender he didn't do a good enough job of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
