      Actually my point was even worse for Luongo-- Using career numbers for Luongo means you count his rookie time and lots of Carolina time which overweights his non-playoff years. My point was that Luongo has been in the playoffs in four years. In the first year he had the stellar Dallas series and his playoff save % was higher than his regular season that year. In the three subsequent playoff runs Luongo's save percentage has been noticeably below hie sv % for that year . I like this as an apples to apples comparison since he is behind the same team in the same year-- it directly compares how well they step up in the playoffs compared to their recent regular season performance.

      • Luongo was fine in so far BTW. Pretty much no one will get that goal

          • Great quote from Shawn Thornton today:

            "Pressure's 5 kids, no job. This is Game 7. This is fun, right? We get to play a game for a living."

                Only 5 shots on goal though-- Vancouver is playing well-- and if the Bruins don't generate more play , they could be in trouble

                • What a difference an elite goaltender makes.

                  • Pretty good game so far-- the whistles put away attitude is fine but should not extend to muggings from behind--just my view


                    Oh and ben the number of chances in all of game 6 is not really relevant to assessing the play of a goalie who was in for less than a quarter of that game-- Its fine to say or think that Vancouver would not win anyway that game based on the overall result but that discounts the whole idea of momentum for teams that can come after a goal (or particularly after 3 goals in 5 minutes). To think that doesn't impact what happens afterward is absurd

                        That's because you've never praised him. Not even for the two shutouts already in this series. Why would I expect you to give credit where credit is due when you've failed to do so in this series.
                        Ben WTF-- I have said throughout he is excellent or very good or stellar in some games. My praise for Thomas has used similar words. so how exactly is one supposed to give credit

                        • That's an 80% svp so far for Luongo.

                          • 2-0-- not really Luongos fault__ perhaps he could have controlled the rebound better but on the wraparound, his own defense tangled him up
