It's something i would do if im the coach. But realistically they are going with luongo all the way. Lui might be poison in the dressing room if he doesnt start game 6

I have nothing against starting Cory in game 6. You can easily make the arguement he has earned it. Having said that, Roberto should`nt have to shoulder all the blame. The twenty guys in front of him were piss poor as well

Luongo shouldnt shoulder all the blame but maybe it'll be a nice change. Didnt they do a change with the olympics where brodeur had some so so games and they switched to lui? Now we have a decent backup and not sure if we have the stones to play him when it counts.

Ok, lets get real no team can suck so much to blow a 3 to 0 lead. Maybe the team got lazy or something but nah, it probably a canuck win Sunday.

Tell that to Boston last year.

They will ride Luongo, what else can they do? Play Cory? The backup is eventual trade bait, cause no one will want Luongo and his 12 year contract or whatever it is. If they sit Luongo for something as huge as the playoffs, what will that do between Luongo and Vignault?

Coach says Luongo will play in Game 6 in the post game interview. So what happens if Lu gets blown out again? Would we see Schneider starting in game 7?

If I were Gillis or Coach V, I would put in Schneid's for the next game. They have jobs they have to protect too. Lou is a liability right now and not confident.


Two blow outs in a row and I am not putting the whole blame on Lou but a message has to be sent to the whole team to respond.

Where the hell did all the hitting and banging go from the first 3 games?? Nucks skate like they are shitting their pants out three.

Loungo looked terrified and lost.
something realllllly wrong with him , plus he was down on his knees way too early , that first Hossa goal from outside the blue line with Loungo on his knees early looked very much like the infamous Cloutier goal.

Luongo is weak mentally...it's obvious...

Lol, shoot high works on about 90% of the goalies in this league. It definately wouldn't hurt to start Schneider in game 6 & give Lou a break, if they lose then you could throw him back in for game 7.Unfortunately Vignault doesn't have the stones to give Schneids the start.
