It's a crime that Luongo didn't win the Vezina. 03-04 he should have won clearly but the voters went with Brodeur probably because he had more wins, purely a team stat I might add.
I kind of get it. It's anti climactic to vote for a goalie in such a losing season. 25-33 record
Also - he didn't finish the season strong, nor did his team, which doesn't help.
On February 25th - Florida was 8 points behind Montreal with 2 games in hand for last playoff spot. Uphill battle for sure, but not technically out yet.
Rest of the way - Luongo went:
5 wins, 8 losses, 2 ties
3.06 GAA, 912 sv%
The first 57 games - he was 2.21 GAA, 935 SV%.
I know he wasn't on a very good team obviously, so I'm not blaming him for missing playoffs or losses, but I just think it doesn't help him at all to have such a bad record, while also finishing the season not that strong.
