Does he have the professional skill , talent, physical ability ? yes yes and yes - He is one of the best goalies in the world
The thing with Luongo is that he has the mentality of an amateur. Lacking that next level mental focus and stability at the NHL level is gonna lead to failure.
Plain and simple, he just doesn't seem to actually win us games. I mean really- so far this year its been the exact opposite
And enough about the gold medal.... look at the team that was in front of him. Any goalie in the NHL would have a medal around their neck with that team.
I don't know here boys, do we trade him , do we keep him. Lets wait till the end of October, then the end of November, then playoffs.
Sure he does an ok job in the regular season.
When it counts( playoffs) , what this team is capable of doing and put together for, and what the oddsmakers say we should do, will only happen if he's outta here.
I used to be a huge fan of his, seems like a great guy, does the Linden thing in the community, has amazing next level skill BUT.................HES MENTALLY WEAK.....
and if Gillis ever calls me back, ill tell him its time to let him go
im far from a canuck fan but here it is for the lot of u...tim berners lee i think u got it wrong kid the guy is proven to play like garbage in the month of oct has for years but turns it around in november dosent he? maybe because he gets the brunt of the van media saying hes crap when they r still trying to sort out their defence pairings still..how many tap ins this year due to horrible d..answer: many...the guy and schnider won best combo for lowest goals last year...sure schnider is good but can he carry the work load of the nhl every nite who knows but if they trade lu and schnider cant carry that work load then that talented team in front of him (that potentially could win a cup) is left having to out score teams cause their back end cant pull the load..keep lou stoip listening to the media so much and actually watch how bad the d plays some nites..should we trade the sedins cause they couldnt burry a goal vs the rangers or because they were on for 2 edmonton goals..hell no cause u know they are good so is lou..is nickoli habeboulin,or js gegier top of the pile for their position nope they just got lucky in playoffs... if lou ever were to get hot in the playoffs lets be honest they would win..its about getting streaky at the right time which is hard to do sometimes...last point cant blame lou for game 7 how can u give away that many odd man russhes in a game 7 and a break away while your on a powerplay....also canucks r 9-45 on the powerplay this year your not helping your tender out at all if you cant score a man up....just a thought..i know my grammer and spelling suck so please dont rub it in..thank you for your time....
Finally you're coming to your senses... and all this time I thought you loved Lou...and Cloutier.Somehow I feel like Lu was responsible for last night.
