The reason we've been without a #1 goalie for so long (and a #1 center for that matter) is because players of that calibre are rarely ever available. This is an especially rare case because not only is Lu (allegedly) available, but for a relatively low price as well. Contract be damned, you'd be insane not to leap at this opportunity.
Luongo couldn't have won them that seventh game even with a shutout. |
Exactly... I happen to think you need a number of these marquis players in the lineup if for no other reason, than to distribute the media stupidity more evenly.
If we get even a whiff at a franchise goalie of this magnitude, for what will be a favourable price, you have to jump on it.
