BananaMash Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 You guys sure are brilliant. I guess you assume that because Cloutier is working within the organization that that means all of our goaltenders are going to start letting shots in from center. They'll probably even get the same injuries that Cloutier got. Thar dirt bag! How dare he take a job here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuretoMogilny Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I actually concur, Scottish. Was he not our best goalie stats-wise until Luongo came? Fun to poke at but he doesn't get his fair shake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuretoMogilny Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 His record wasn't too bad in Vancouver, it was the other teams he played terrible on.. lol His record was 109-68-23 with 14 shutouts and a 2.42 goals against average (208 games) with the Canucks. Then again if our goaltending was stronger, maybe we would have went further in the playoffs during the Naslund/Bertuzzi/Morrison era. Oh well, I'm happy where we are now. The Sedins/Kes are great to watch, guess I'll have to wait till next season though to see them play.... %$#@ Bettman! EDIT: Either way, congrats Dan.

riffraff Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I agree. However, despite this being a surprise for Cloutier, I think most people could see this signing 50 feet away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustapha Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 When his name comes up all's i can remember is a Lidstrom 60 footer and colossal meltdowns in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PONCHE Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Terrible signing, sure some of his stats looked good but how could they not playing behind 1 of the best offensive teams at the time...he was exposed in LA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Bo7 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 It's hard to keep goals out when nobody on the team backchecks. That team was so aggressive offensively, that Cloutier was often hung out to dry. We typically didn't win games in dominating fashion, we won games like 5-4, or 5-3. That just comes with being a run-and-gun team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bertuzzipunch Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Cloutier is a great guy, glad hes part of the organization again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRocket18 Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 hope this works out well... Did we lose someone from within our organization that caused Gilles to hire Cloutier...? As We have Rolo... Or ... Is this just an added piece to the org? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nux4lyfe Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Yes... OFFENSIVE teams are usually notorious for not being good DEFENSIVE teams(the part that would help a goalie) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMalamute Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 He's a consultant....so, I think it would go something like this: Hey Dan, what would you do, here? -Dan: Oh I'd leave the net, for sure!!!

brewdog Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Just realized how much I miss goalie fights. We've actually had some good scrappers in Cloutier and Potvin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fozzy Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 Cloutier won the first and only playoff series of his career in 2003 as the Canucks eliminated the St. Louis Blues in seven games. He made 33 saves in the deciding contest, a 4–1 win for Vancouver.[32] Advancing to the second round against the Minnesota Wild, the Canucks took a three-games-to-one lead. With Vancouver needing one more win to eliminate the Wild, Cloutier was taken out of Game 5 in favour of rookie Alex Auld after allowing six goals on 21 shots through two periods. Our saviour is back... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggins Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 I blame Bert for that series loss. He got all cocky and mouthy at the Wild's bench once we were up 3-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Goodman Posted September 26, 2012 Share Posted September 26, 2012 ? best offensive teams don't necessarily make goaltenders look good. also, he won't be playing against LA - he'll be coaching young goaltenders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
