It's hard to say as his last two starts have been stellar but he had no consistency before those. Hopefully he can pull it together this year and be consistent in the playoffs which he has always struggled with. I predict he will fall short of Plante and also have the dubious distinction of second most losses of all time by seasons end.

Had a so so stretch but has been very good his last 2 games against good teams chasing them.  Overall, a very good season and showing age isn't a factor for him at all yet.

Definitely. Not first ballot, but definitely. He'll finish pretty high up by the time he calls it quits.

I'm not sure, Cujo has never been close yet and him and Lui have pretty similar careers. It seems goalies are judged differently for HOF consideration.

Thank goodness the Panthers finally showed up in the 2nd period. They hung Luo out to dry in the 1st. But they did, came back and also set a franchise season win record. They're now also 1 point away from clinching their playoff spot.

 

Not a bad early birthday present for Luo!

Well deserved win for Luo. He was spectacular, making 32 saves on 33 shots most of which came in the first 2 periods.

 

And with that win (and Tampa's loss) Florida clinched the division title. Not bad for a guy people said went to Florida to "retire".

Can't wait to watch him and the Panthers in the playoffs!

1 win behind Plante for 6th all time!  Will have to wait til next season to pass.

A 19-win season next year will put Lu in 4th all-time. Incredible really.

They're certainly judged differently by the Vancouver media with regards to who does and does not deserve to have their number hanging from the Rog rafters in retirement. I'm still half-steamed at certain mouthpieces at TSN 1040 who've determined he's not worthy because he never won an individual award. Really? His name dominates the franchise all-time records at the position, but, THAT'S the deciding factor?

Florida- Where veteran players go to rejuvenate their careers

 

Jagr

Luongo

Mitchell

Really, only Lu belongs on that list. Jagr's been killing it with consistency for years prior to signing with Florida. And, Mitchell rejuvenated his career in L.A. after being scrap heaped in Vancouver.
