Hard to believe a goalie can get hurt by a shot with the chest protectors they wear these days - either wasn't square to the shooter or we have a little :liar: going on!

Say what you will about Miller and Luongo, but Miller has never been blown out in a playoff loss when his team has needed him most.

You can't say that about Luongo.

I ain't impressed with Luongo anymore...I think that Chicago series ruined him.

no, but shit happens. luongo has been the best goalie, in my opinion of course, since really 2002. miller is on a hot start, lets see where it takes him.

but adam, even the great partick roy has been blown out in the playoffs.

True. Very true.

But Patrick Roy also has Stanley Cup rings.

I'm not saying that Ryan Miller is the best goalie in the league.

But I am saying that Luongo gets more buzz than he deserves.

yeah, but some seasons, the only reason the nucks were in the playoffs was luongo. dont you remember his seasons in florida? he was facing 45-50 shots a game routinely. and was stopping over .925% of them!

He was awesome in Florida, no doubt. I agree with you there.

But ever since he's been a Canuck, something's been up with him.

I could be wrong. But lets see how Vancouver does throughout the season and into the playoffs.

Agreed; he looked week emotionally as well as this series wore down......

Roberto Luongo has one of the coolest names in the NHL.

I think so, too. I have been wrong before, though. :lol: So, so wrong... Usually it's a good thing when I am wrong, though. :D

I've always been about as high on Luongo as I have been on Vokuon.
