Anyone hoping we've seen the last of Luongo?

Not that you guys want an outsider's opinion, but yeah, Luongo has been really quite good. The rest of the team sans Daniel are just not getting it done.

The one goal you can fault the guy on was the Brown short handed back hand. Otherwise he was the reason this was not a bigger blow out.

Kesler looked better but didn't get anything going his way. Sedin was shooting more just couldn't get the space to create.

Where is the defensive pressure when we're so close at 2 1

1st 2 goals were SH'd, result of brain dead plays.
3rd goal was fluky.
4th goal Bieksa tackled him and left his man alone.

Not to mention that he was the only reason why Game 1 was close.

So I disagree with everything you've said

I'd rather keep Luongo and start a different team in front of him.

God, I loathe some of our "fans". Nothing wrong with starting Schneider. He's earned it. And the team needs to do SOMETHING. The thread title, though, is sickening.

yeah but we all know Fleury is ****. If Luongo had Fleury's offensive support we'd be up 2-0 in the series.

Well said. I just grow so weary of the Luongo fan that bashes the Sedins, the Sedin fan that bashes Luongo, etc and ad nauseam. With some rational analysis it's pretty damned clear goaltending was not the problem. Whoever started this thread knows nothing about the game.

Who cares if the last two games was Luongo's fault or not.

The only thing that matters is whether he's the best goalie on this team.

THAT, he is not.

Therefore, play Schneider as he'll give us a better chance to win.

Absolutely this, 100% agreed. I'd be happy with Schneider starting to shake up the team, but Lu was NOT the problem (and in fact was the one keeping it close in game 1) the last two games.

We have far worse things to worry about right now than Luongo

Lou has been the best player through two games. Rick Bowness has to settle down his group of six, and Newell Brown needs to stimulate the pp. More hot sauce!!! Would say special teams are the difference, and believe Lou has made those big saves required thus far. Just need the players in front of him to score a clutch goal now and then. Schneider and Weise in next game, just a hunch. Ebbett out.

We can discuss what goalie we want to see in game 3 in the PGT and following game 3 Pre game talk. This thread and it's title is a little much.
