sgt. grumbles Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Schneider's value is increasing by the game. If Luongo can not be moved for asset(s) then Cory will be the one that goes. Seems like the logical move to me, anyhow... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TIGER SINGH Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 My question is why? Do you prefer Luongo's style of play? Do you think we stand a better chance of playoff success with him? Do you simply just like him more? Is it something else? I dont get it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nino Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 You could argue that you feel a lot more confident in Luongos proven track record as a top goalie in the league, and Schneider (while extremely impressive) has a very small sample size and may not maintain his current play over a large sample of games.

hockeyfan90 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share Posted April 13, 2013 Bingo! While Luongo might have a better track record than Schneider, he also has had games which he got shelled in important games especially in the playoffs. Schneider on the other hand hasn't. That 'track' argument is irrelevent. Theres always a good and bad side to it for Luongo as we have seen and we havent seen the bad side in Schneider yet in the playoffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mustapha Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Haven't seen the good side in Schneider yet in the playoffs either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindChaser Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I'd like to see how he does in this year's playoff before I answer that question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kack Zassian Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 He also has a track record of playing inconsistent and folding in important games, so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toni Zamboni Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 no!! if schneids gets 5 more shutouts this season, then we can talk about him being a starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NucksCelts Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 I like his resume more and I think we are cup contenders with him playing, the man that used to win the Canucks games. And I think he wants to both play and re-prove himself to the fans of Vancouver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VicNuckleHead09 Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Same as any goalie, his numbers in the playoffs are going to determine if he is the Canucks goalie. /Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pimpcurtly Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Schneids proved to me long ago that he was the real deal. Kevin Woodley agreed with me that he is one of the best "technical" goalies in the game. Love Lu but it was the right decision going with Cory(even Lu can't deny).

falcon45ca Posted April 13, 2013 Share Posted April 13, 2013 Schneider has played 8 games less this season than he did last, although in a shortened season. If he was the undisputed 1st he would have started a higher percentage of games. Luongo's 2010/11 and 2011/12 gp is what a starter can expect to play(in a full season) and he has yet to play 55 or 60 games(Below Luongo's seaon average) in a season, so no he has not proven he can stand up to the rigorous demands of the starter position yet and keep up a good standard of play, that is what next season is going to prove. Playoffs is another story, Since Luongo is critiqued as a playoff choker, this year schneider is most likely the starter and he will have to get us into the 2nd round or better, with as little goal support as canuck goalies are used to in the playoffs, most likely due to the bipolar nature of canuck fans if we do not get out of the 1st round schneider will either get excuses made for him or Roasted by Luongo lovers and the media will have a heyday with speculation if it was better to go with Luongo or not and it will be fodder for trade schneider speculations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
