Unfortunately, 1 game doesn't mean much. Any goalie can have a hot game here and there and steal a win; however, to be a true elite goalie, u gotta play @ a high lvl for a long stretch. 4 wins to a series, 16 wins for a cup. Lou was very good for 3 rounds and a couple games in the finals, but he played like a flake when we needed him the most.

I will always get a kick out of this.

He was great for 3 rounds.

But the finals were a write off because the team couldn't score.

Luongo stole all 3 of the games that Vancouver won in that SCF. He was horrible in Boston, but so was the team in front of him.

2 SO in the SCF is a VERY GOOD thing to have on your resume. It's not a Stanley Cup, but it's still an accomplishment in and of itself....especially when you consider how awful the team in front of him was in that series.

How about this, would you prefer Schneider's starts to the preaseason or Luongo/Lack's?
I will talk about Luongo and Schneider when teams have actually played 40 games that matter . Unlike the urine crew some people actually have the patience to see how things unfold

yup,40 games that matter sounds about right to me. Not 3 pre-season :roll:

Tampa Bay and Columbus tie for the Presidents trophy, the Kings and Pens are missing the playoffs, and Vancouver picks 1st overall.

You contradict yourself. If Lou wins 16 games, he's a great goalie, but he only won 15, so he's a bum. 16-15 is 1 the last time I checked.. so it seems that 1 game DOES mean quite a bit.

If I had to deal with fans like you, I'd want out of town too.
