King Heffy Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 Because the last three playoff losses have totally been Luongo's fault right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pears Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 He certainly deserves a large slice of the blame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 How? Do you expect him to score at least one goal each game? It's kinda hard for him to win us games when his offense in the last 16 playoff games has only scored 24 goals, which equals 1.5 goals for a game.

Plum Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 ^ 1-3 years and probably the next Lu vs Schnds controversy except I hope we get rid of Lu instead though since Lack was developed by us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonz Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 In all fairness to the OP, Luongo did state in his interview that he looked at all options in the off season, including cancelling his contract to get out of Vancouver. He has a clause in his contract that after 5 years he can ask for a trade and thats at the end of the season. So what are the chances that he will still be here next year? I would assume pretty slim.

poetica Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 He'll always get more blame because of his SCF game 7 performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuxfanabroad Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Ya I don't know why people are all over the OP for it was so obvious what Lu said in the interview. But at the same time, lets not jump into conclusions, he might have a change of heart if the Canucks have a good season this year. Sucks after hearing Kesler saying everyone liked Cory in the locker room. Shows what a good guy he was with the team. It would also suck to lose Cory and than lose Lu next year. Unless lack really is the next best thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted September 2, 2013 Author Share Posted September 2, 2013 Because he allowed 3 goals while the rest of the team scored 0? Because the team managed only 1 shot on their 2 PPs but gave up 2 shorthanded chances, one of which was bungled badly by Erhoff who not only failed to prevent the shot but then tripped the Bruin, sending him into Luo, knocking the puck out of his pads and into the net? Because in all of the playoffs that year we only won 2 games in which Luo allowed 3 goals whereas Boston won 2 games in which Thomas gave up 3, a game in which he gave up 4 and a game in which he gave up 5 goals, meaning despite Luo's blowouts at the end of the day even if we had won that game and he had still allowed 3 goals, we would have won the freaking Cup by having to "overcome" the goalie less times than Boston did just to make it to Finals? If there's blame for not winning Luo absolutely gets his share, especially for the Boston games. But he doesn't get more than the rest of the team combined. And he surely does not get blame for the 4 home games in which he allowed only 5 goals total. We've swept teams with less than that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5Fivehole0 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Bottom line is if your goalie only gives you a chance to win in 4 out of 7 games, winning 3 of them is pretty good. Regardless of how he played in the home games, playing worse than an ECHL backup in Boston was unacceptable and he should have been moved immediately after.
