Post-Game Talk: Game 9: Canucks lose to the Penguins 4-3 in the SO - Blame it on the early start

[CanucksOo]

Well they've been at least practicing the shootout....let's see who Torts throws out there.

 

[Zanon]

18-3 in tier last 21 shootouts

It's okay, we got this.

 

[tc 23]

Santo, Edler, Kesler

 

[LightningBurrows]

Edler...

 

[David71]

santo/kes/edler

 

[NuxFan09]

Watch Luongo come up big in this shootout. He wants this win.

 

[logan5]

We'll see 2 Canuck shooters.

 

[Samzilla]

ugh...when was the last time kes scored in a shootout? but he's always out there

 

[Cromulence]

Lol Malkin is Mason Raymond like. Malkin wishes!

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

lol that would be funny if Edler did the same thing.

 

[Hyack57]

I don't like elder in shoot outs any more. It worked once or twice but if he is the top 3 are we suggesting we lack the skilled forwards still?

 

[Outside99*]

A little late I know but Martin was holding onto Henrik for 15 seconds - I'm so fed up with that old zebras' club.

 

[Reign Nateo]

of course the Luongo haters show up and argue but they are 1% minority

It's well over 1% that don't trust Luongo any more.

I gave up on him around 2010 and he has done nothing but play below average and shaky since then.

I'm a fan of the team, not the names on the back. I want a Cup and I don't trust Luongo to get it done anymore. And there are a lot of Canucks fans (and almost every non-Canuck fan) that agree with me.

Bottom line is .920 save % in the NHL is average. A quality start is when you match that. Which Luongo has managed to do once this seaon against the worst team in the NHL. When Luongo starts doing that again consistantly, he'll get a bit of slack. Until then, he's proving me right time and time again.

 

[The Optimist]

Why not Kassian on the shootout?

 

[Cromulence]

I say 3 dekes that leave Luongo lying prone on his belly.

 

[Oddity]

The point is they don't get PPs.

I misread the intent of the statement haha, my bad.

We don't need powerplays, just penalties... score more short handed anyways

 

[Virtanen2Horvat]

Yeah Luuuuuu!!

 

[Pip]

huge first stop

 

[Addison Rae]

[Bgav]

[tc 23]
