Canuckler87 Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Dan Cloutier was our goalie for so many years. He was an absolute beast in net for us during the west coast express years, logging time in the crease while we piled up the wins. I think he was just as influential to our success as Naslund, Bert, etc. My favorite memory of him would have to be when in a game against the Ducks, they crashed his crease & he absolutely lost his mind throwing haymakers left & right. You just don't see that from Canucks goalies anymore. I miss the good old days.. the Dan Cloutier days. Who here agrees? Please share your fav memories of this under-rated Canucks legend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raffi Torres's Smirk Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 When I make a goalie graveyard t-shirt he will be the biggest face on it. ..Not out of respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
butters Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Not nearly as bad as a lot of people made him out to be. Some Canucks fans expect their goalies to be highlight reel goalies every night, and rip on them when they are not. No goalie can live up to expectations in this market.

GrogZilla Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 2002 playoffs & Cloutier let's in the center ice goal from Lidstrom. The next year they finished training camp in Cranbrook just before opening the season in Calgary. Watched them practice twice & both times Crawford would take a shot at Cloutier from Center ice & laugh when Cloutier made the save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thema Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 He has the worst save % in NHL playoff history amongst goalies who have as many starts as him. He was appalling most nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erik Karlsson Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Cloutier was sick. Toughest goalie out there. Not close to as bad as people make him out to be either, tons of goalies have let in shots from center or further away. It was just bad because it was the playoffs.
