I was impressed how quickly he came up with the answer and how sincere and genuine it sounded.

Then you should be even more impressed of how Luongo has responded about being on the sidelines as of late: Quote: | #sportsnetmurph Dan Murphy Luongo "Schneider has been unreal. He's been working hard for 2 years and never said a word so he deserves every minute he's getting now."
| Quote: | #sportsnetmurph Dan Murphy Luongo "Schneider has been 100 % behind me since the start so there's no reason why I wouldn't be behind him 100%."

But he's got a point. Schneider has given Lu nothing but support and if you hear the stories around Canucks practice, Schnoo works wicked hard to stay at the top of his game even if he doesn't play much so he's more than earned his time in the spotlight, especially since Luongo's numbers are shit so far this year.

Lol my buddy and I were joking about Lu sitting on the bench being bored. It would be funny if the camera panned over and showed him on his phone playing angry birds. Or yelling down the bench asking his teammates if they read his tweet/facebook status

I don't think Luongo would sabotage the current hot streak they're on, even with his big ego. His chance will come and that's a no brainer. Besides let's be honest here, there's probably no one more on the team that wants to shut us up anyway. And with Schneider doing so well this should only just burn that fire under his ass even more.
I think this break will do him good. Reflect and rest mentally.
Man, the league leader board is really off this year :/

Although Schnieder is getting his break now, most backups can't be as game ready as Schnieder and most stay lifers as backups. Good on Schieds!

Is Luongo done in this town? The most vocal fans are clearly not on his side anymore.
On the flip side would you risk losing Cory for nothing or trade while his value is high?

The worst that could happen is we get a 1st and 3rd for him when someone offer sheets him $4.25m.

i'm pretty certain that luongo isnt going anywhere unless he requests to move.
he's locked down. he's got what, 10 more years on his contract? something like that. not only is it nearly impossible to move him, but even if we could... what team would take him and his huge ass contract? =/ and then his ntc comes into play 
our only viable option is (i think):
a) trade schneider
b) convince schneider to stay and sign him for as long as he's willing to stay.
this has been discussed numerous times. i mean, would you be confident with JUST schneider in net for the playoffs? yes. but what if he gets injured? then we're fucked if we have some shitty back up goalie. as long as we're a solid cup contender, we need 2 legit goalies to get us there.
i could care less that luongo gets benched for the rest of the season, but i'd rather have a legit back up than a questionable unproven/shitty backup for the playoffs.

I'd offer him what Tuuka Rask got from the Bruins. 3 years @ 3.2 per. Seems fair plus Schneider is in a similar situation to Rask two seasons ago.

Jeez, backup goalie goes on a 5 game run against mostly mediocre teams, and people are talking about Luongo being done? 
Schneider just has a hot hand. Ride it of course, but he is not a .999 goalie. Nobody is. Luongo is The Man, and needs to step up when it's his turn. Because you won't want to depend on Schneider when the inevitable cool streak comes along.
Unless he really is another Jimmy Howard... But you can't tell just yet.
Most importantly of all, the Canucks are actually playing well against these teams. Kesler is going, Burrows is going, hell even Booth has scored a few, and Daniel is finding goals as well. To me THAT is more important than Schneider's outstanding numbers.
