lets be real, outside of the Boston game he's never really played a big time game and come out of it on the winning end

Nov 26 vs SJ?
Jan 31 vs CHI?

Cory Schneider - Vancouver Canucks - Game Log - NHL - Yahoo! Canada Sports

Fair enough, he hasn't played as many "big games" compared to Lu. HOWEVER, he hasn't shat the bed BADLY versus the Chicago's, or Boston's as many times as Lu did... :pokerface:

SkinnyPupp 03-28-2012 09:20 PM

Cory shit the bed in that first game against Chicago last playoffs :heckno:

But other than that, he has been solid

Elliot leads the league in save percentage with 0.943....Schneider is 2nd with 0.934

That was the states entering this game. It was shown on Sportsnet that Schneider is now .969 after this game and as no.1 in SV and no.5 in GAA

Hope we will get to see Schneider play in the playoff his year!

spideyv2 03-28-2012 09:29 PM

we'll see how Schneider really deals with the pressure this postseason, if Luongo shits the bed again

Nope, his save % is 0.937 after today.

Are you talking about game 6 last year [i think] where he played the puck twice and Chicago scored twice?

He played fairly well in that game IMO [if he didn't play the puck that is lol]

Iceman_2K 03-28-2012 09:38 PM

I think the Canucks should alternate play the goalies for the playoffs. Game 1,3,5 (if needed) for Lu, and game 2,4,6 (if needed) for Cory. Screw with the go with the #1 goalie - if we win the cup just because we gave more rest to the goalies, all the better.

goo3 03-28-2012 09:46 PM

Why does it need to be so complicated? Go with the hotter goalie.

cliffhanger33 03-28-2012 09:48 PM

Well Luu has been great so far, but hes just straight up inconsistent

As fans we can all agree this logic works.

But do you actually think AV would do it? He put a slumping MASON RAYMOND of all people to the 2nd line and demoted Higgins...:rukidding:

TRDood 03-28-2012 09:49 PM

Very happy with the victory, but it seems like the 1st and 2nd line are not producing at all, especially Hank and Burrows. Booth looks good though.

Kesler had a good chance in the first but he fanned :okay:

I don't think this has ever been done in history.

They always go with either #1 goalie or the hottest goalie.

There's no room for risk and experimentation in the playoffs.

Well it's time to make history then :fuckyea:

But in all seriousness, it blows my mind how Lu can be a world class goaltender at home and then becomes a guy who looks like he played goaltender for the first time during away games...

yep
very brutal
we score, then cory fucks up and they tie it up
then the penalty shot leg cramp/muscle pull

it was like it was scripted or something

I was at the game today and man it was hard to watch. Aside from the higgins goal it was a very boring game. I mean from the 2nd period onward the canucks weren't even fore checking.

LSF22 03-28-2012 10:31 PM

Was at game too.... other than the 1st period with the goal and the Booth fight :fuckyea:.....

2nd period on we were outplayed and the amount of shots we gave up were :heckno:

Won't complain much though.... I'll take the win, and on to the next one!

Thanks for posting them, couldn't get the links for it :lol

Not really racist! 03-28-2012 10:51 PM

:fuckyea:

history shows ride the hot goalie... who cares as long as we win

bballguy 03-28-2012 10:52 PM

How about St. Louis...Do they go with Elliot or Halak? They've called Halak their 1A all season, though their 1B, Elliot, has outperformed him and leads the league with 9 shutouts in just 36 games and is coming off 3 shutouts in a row...

ree666 03-28-2012 10:56 PM

avs moves are questionable. when schneider was on his hot streak and carried the team while luongos bed was moistens with his out shit. he found any excuse to pull schneid and made luongo the #1 again.

hodsgon wins rookie of the month , then gets promoted to the 4th line???

raymond was playing his worse hockey then gets promoted to the 1st line? then was the extra attacker that same game??? then gets benched the next game...

think tanev is the most defensively sound defencemen on the team... he just needs to shoot more! all our d seem to be reluctant to shoot...

k end of rant.

AzNightmare 03-28-2012 11:58 PM

Realistically, history would indicate Luongo will shit the bed eventually through the playoffs,
and I don't think AV would hesitate this time to put in Schneider.
I could imagine MG would personally step in and make that call if necessary.
There's no time to experiment, and I'm sure everybody's thinking we would at least
have had a better chance to win the cup last year if Schneider was in net.

But I'll still give Luongo first dibs with his experience, and wait until he blows it before we play Schneider.

While Schneider comes in here and there to play games, and he performs well even against top tier teams,
he hasn't done so in long stretch of games.
There's no saying Luongo couldn't have done the same as well.
Teams don't study backup goalies as much, and playing few games here and there won't reveal as many holes in the goalie's game.
