We will regret the way this franchise treated Roberto Luongo

As fans said this year Schneider will take us to the cup because of his steller play in the regular season with games against CBJ, PHX, CGY, COL, it never happened. We are going with Schneider it is clear, but we are not going to make a run for a while.

After all this, Luongo has the respect of fellow players around the league like Thornton for example, and surprisingly has the respect and support of other fans and they know how the organization dealt with him. They are all laughing at the organization, and know how good Lu is and actually want him to leave this `gong show`` of a team as one other fan put it

Schneids has outplayed Lou, is younger, lower cap hit, higher skill level at this point in their careers, and Lou--whether you want to believe it or not--has shown over and over again that he is not up to the task when it matters...

GMMG has made all the right moves with respect to trading Lou, yet here we are with our 20/20 hindsight saying how he has mishandled the entire thing. SMH.

The way this city treats goalies deserves a great goalie like Luongo leaving. Hell people are already talking Lack replacing Schneider and he hasn't even played an NHL game.

Look out Cory the "fans" are planting seeds to turn on you too.

this love fest with lu is taking on cult levels....

as a canuck fan who was supporting this team before lu ever played professional hockey, and will continue to support this team long after lu retires.... I just don't get it..

In terms of heart and passion, id take mclean over lu any day. In terms of skill, id take schneids.. Lu was definitely a good goalie, but nothing that would justify this.

(it is also worth remembering, Lu played on the greatest canuck generation ever assembled, and still he couldn't win a cup and was the direct cause of many playoff exits)

No, he has been well treated by the GM, and for the most past, by AV. He had an equal chance this "messed up season" to take the number 1 spot down the stretch but Schneider played better. I have a feeling your rant would be about Schneider if the opposite scenario played out...

Had nonis made the trade luongo would have stole the series from the bruins ... oh and MG would be fired. Scrivens as our goalie for games one and two would have been blowouts .... although its hard to believe scrivens could have played worse than Cory in game three

Yeah. Shame on management for "treating" him to a $60M contract, only to have their #1 outplayed by someone younger, cheaper, and more well liked by fans, media, and likely teammates. Shame.

Just like where all you came from. And i've said it before, i'll say it again straight up, Cory Schneider will be way more criticized and under more pressure than Luongo ever was. If he is the guy and taking over, he better be ready for it and same with the fans.

Schneider outplayed Lu in the playoffs we know...And if anything Lu is way more well liked by the media, fans of other teams and by other players in the NHL now.  Just haters like you, are why other fans are making fun of the team.
