NHL 2011 PLAYOFFS

Jason P

To all those that have been bantering back and forth on whether Luongo or Thomas is the better goalie ... how about we let them settle this argument for us tonight.

Winner take all!

NO RETREAT! NO SURRENDER!!!

I "hate" the bruins as much as I "love" the canucks which is very little.
I admitted that Thomas has outplayed Luongo in Boston so you really need to research the facts before
you make assinine comments.
There is really little to be gained by trying to argue with a Boston sports fan because they are always right.

I should know, I've been a bosox fan for over 40 years.

.938 9 shutouts for Thomas this season
.928 4 shutouts for Luongo

Hey, I never said I knew a lot about hockey, I just look at the facts. And I'll be the first to congratulate the Canucks if they win tonight.

I am merely stating my opinion, much like you are.

... you just said to someone they know very little about the sport based on their opinion ..

I agree - Thomas had a great season.
but from those stats I'd say that Luongo's wasn't too shabby either.

It's all good friend, I just want to see a great, clean, hard played game as long as Krejci and Edler
don't get 4 more points combined than Bergeron and Chara.

and then I can go back to preparing for the sox to take home another World Series.

Agreed not being able to score in Van is a huge problem. Julien tries to win the game 0-0 on the road and their approach is way too conservative. My Judgement is not clouded because I don't like Vancouver. Just not a fan of Lu doesn't really matter whose laundry he is wearing. In my opinion TT is a better goalie and I think the season and playoff stats highlight that fact at least this year. Goalie is one area Julian doesn't have to be concerned about unlike AV for Van. He must be wondering which Lu will show up. Schneider is better than the guy. LU is probably giving Av ulcers.

That's your argument? Thomas has had a better year and playoffs than Luongo this year?
That's what makes him a better goaltender?

Weak.

So what is your arguement that Luongo is better? His room full of Vezinas? His championships? His clutch playoff performances over the years? The fact that a healthy % of an entire country thinks his backup should be playing?

His bank account is better than Thomas' - but that's about it. Switch goalies and this series would've been over in 4. The Canucks may win tonight (I still say 3-1 B's) but nothing that happens tonight would change my mind as to which goalie is better.

K honestly I forgot my bus pass / keys and had to sprint back to the house and back and luckily made the bus then when getting off at the station nearly forgot it on the seat!!! I am really a mess today. This is so much easier when your team is eliminated the 2nd round!!

Seriously. I wish it was hockey season all year round. Now all that is ahead for a while is baseball.

Me too.

It's like youth hockey. I always complain about the long drives, early mornings, and way-too-long season...but within a week of the season ending, I start to miss watching my little guy play the games.

Win or lose, I'll be relieved all the stress is gone after tonight...and then I'll start longing for it to all start over again. God I love this game!

And for one last time....
Go B's

Enjoy the game everyone...and stay safe during the inevitable riots
