cmpunk Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I thought it should've and would've been Schneider getting the start as he's played very well, but I think we're pretty much guaranteed good goaltending regardless. I can't say I agree with Luongo getting the start, but I can't say I'm peeved he's in net. Both are great. Maybe this is a game where Lu is being showcased; I would've thought for sure you go with Schneider and keep his hot streak going. Or maybe it's just AV's coin. Who knows.

Steve Carell Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I'm starting to think that AV is actually using a coin.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youth_Movement Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 kind of a slap to the face of schnieds. After lu gets to start 4 games in a row... thanks for playing so well. Now have a seat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Navyblue Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I think they should rotate every couple games unless one has a clearly bad game. This will not only keep both relatively fresh and competitive, but come playoff time our opponents will have to scout two tenders instead of one.

D.Doughty Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 lets play both luongo and schneider at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hunter.S-Kerouac Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 They should have random contests in the locker room before the game to decide. Like who can balance a soccer ball on their nose the longest. Or catch the most smarties in their mouth in 20 secs with Alain tossing the smarties. The coin is just the beginning.

Captain Aerosex Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 man get real. Every game he plays he, is a game to get showcased now? He played 5 games already against some good teams, played well....still not enough showcasing for a top goalie who has been in the league for over 10 years? Bottom line is, we don't have a starter we got 2 clearly. Does saying he is being showcased is the reason for the start make you feel better?

Milk Hot Dog Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 The hockey gods have decided the coin toss. I will not argue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerAids Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Luuu's been dominating the Wild at home, Schneids should get the next start though. If you look at the Sched. in March and April it is absolutely packed, I am glad we will have 2 great tenders to play at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 I highly doubt it's a showcase game. I'm pretty sure teams know what Luongo can do. My guess is the current plan is to keep both goalies fresh. Next week there are a bunch of games in not a whole lot of time so it's probably a good thing. Granted the plan can change. It seems we've gone through: 1) Cory's the starter 2) Oh, crap we need wins so we better play Lu 3) Okay, we have a cushion. Let's give Schneider a few games to get his game back. 4) Cory has his game back? Okay, let's keep both goalies fresh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Primus099 Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Hey buddy, you're talking to somebody whose favourite goalie of all-time is Luongo. I'm not attacking him or anything. Luongo doesn't need you to get all butthurt and defend him over any comment that isn't praising him as a God. Do you think it makes sense to give him the start when the gameplan this season has been ride the hot goalie for a while and Schneider's performed great in his consecutive starts? One rational explanation is that it might be a showcase game. It doesn't matter how established a player is in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Ramsay Posted February 11, 2013 Share Posted February 11, 2013 Absolutely. We're so lucky to actually not have to worry about who goes in net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
