If Luongo is starting, I'd say they're trying to get him going against a inferior team. That and sheltering the head case from Minnesota and perhaps even Chicago.

Can Schneider be our starter yet? My patience has worn thin, and although I don't like jumping on the anti-Lu bandwagon that is quite common around here, I just don't have faith that the 'big save' will be made with Luongo.

You want Schneider in with a pairing of Edler-Bieksa? More like throwing Luongo to the wolves with that defensive pairing.

Apologize for what? Suggesting we play a perfectly capable backup who could be a quality starter on a number of teams because our #1 isn't playing well?

There are some obvious haters of Luongo but I would say that most people who want to see Schneider get some starts are just people who want to give the team the best chance to win.

You guys are early with these...

Potential CBJ line-up:
Umberger (where offense goes to die) - Brassard - Nash
Prospal - Letestu - Atkinson
Gilles/Russell - Boyce - Dorsett
Gilles/Russell - Johansen - Boll

J. Johnson - Wisniewski
A Johnson / Lebda - Nikitin
Moore - A. Johnson / Lebda

Mason is supposed to start.

I haven't been paying too much attention to the last few games and the d pairs (other than the first) have shuffled on occasion.

That's also been true of most if not all the teams we've lost to the past month. Didn't help much then. We'll see if the team can be decent at both ends of the ice tomorrow.

not in regulation though and it was a road game. We lose in a S/O, and I don't really consider that a loss.

I hate these comments. I hear them to much on cdc from die hard lou fans.

Schneider wears a canucks jersey, he is supporting the team, not just lou... he also feels schneider gives them the best chance to win. Some of us put the team before lou.

Lou said he will share his crease with schneider if it means a cup, yet his fans wont.


Also what if av decides schneider is playing better and starts him in playoff games and runs with him, will you also support our starter? Or will you be angry lou is not starting?

If i could give someone an award for post of the year, it would go to you. I should almost make it my tag so whenever i suggest starting schneider and get called a hater for not supporting the team, i can refer them to this.

So you want to play Schneider against the inferior teams and shelter him from Minnesota and perhaps even Chicago?

Also Ben Kuzma:

Another team that needs a starting goalie gets a good look at Schneider on Saturday. First Tampa Bay and now the Blue Jackets.

And the Canucks official tweet:
VanCanucks AV: Schneider to start tomorrow. #Canucks
