Yes, but Schneider basically played this game so would it be Lu now? lol

Regardless of how Lu plays, they should start having Schneider play back to back games when he plays well in the first one.

If he takes us to the cup, great! If he lets in 3 goals on 14 shots every game, fuck him! Is that "bandwagoning" or common sense?

That right there is definitely bandwagoning.

Win a game = Love Luongo
Lose a game = Run Luongo out of town

I've said this time and time again, this isn't NHL on PS3 where you can go 82-0. Teams lose, goals get let in, teams play like shit on some days and don't.

Common sense would be acknowledging the fact that Luongo won't get 82 wins and to expect the hard times and shitty games.

I love Canucks fans. When they win, it's all sunshine, lollipops and rainbows.

And when they lose, they start talking like they've played the game for 30 years and could do SO much better.

Luongo plays well: Luongo was terrible. The defense bailed him out. We'll run him out of town tomorrow! Trade him for a bag of pucks!

It is the nature of the position. You get too much credit when you win and you get too much blame when you lose. It is what it is.

Given Luongo's notoriety, Vancouver fans and the love-hate relationship I would actually say he's handled himself pretty well in seasons past. This season, well..we'll see.

My problem with Luongo critics is that many of them automatically assume that Schneider will pick up after Luongo and bring them to some higher state of goaltending just like that. Schneider is a great goalie but we have yet to see him start a "starting goalie's" amount of games. There is a difference in playing well in 25 games and playing well in 60.

As for who plays the next game, it depends on the opponent. St. Louis has a winning road record, so I would expect to see Schneider get the start. If it was a Nashville or a Columbus, we'd be seeing Lu.

Luongo IS the Canucks. You can't do that.

AV is less of a coach than he is Luongo's babysitter. Listen to his post game interview, it was absurd. First he says you can't blame Luongo, then when asked why he pulled Luongo he said "it was time to make the change"

Luongo wins. pulls out a 30/31 save effort. Ohh must be the sedins and their magical twin potions working.
Luongo loses. ALL HIS FAULT..even thought he makes that 31/32 save effort. BURN HIS ASS
Luongo loses.. like 2nite 11/14 saves. with 3 being let in within 5min. BURN HIS FUCKING ASS.

Even when Luongo gets a shutout, he never really gets full credit with the fans in this city

Whichever goalie AV chooses to go with tomorrow, I don't really want to read too much into it.
But I think it will say a lot about AV. Schneider's obviously the better goalie right now, but let's see if AV has the balls to switch things up.
At this point, I really don't know what to expect.

Yes. 3 goals in a span of 5 minutes. 3-0 game. AV made the right choice.

Yup, after losing in the finals and a few bad goals from Luongo, so many people were bitching that I completely forgot Luongo had 2 shutouts in that series.

Speculation is such that Luongo will start since he's had time to reflect and think about w/e his mistakes from today were. That and it's gonna be a home game for him to redeem himself.. AND for the fans. I too, am on the side that says play whoever is performing up to standards/expectations. Whoever is helping the team win plays. That's what matters... isn't it?

I wonder what Booth thinks... first game for new team... against Edmonton... and Luu gets pulled. He has no idea what how ruthless some Canuck fans can be lol

I enjoy watching both play

All eyes will be on goaltending tomorrow
but if Luongo starts and he tanks it, then post game on team1040 will get ugly. Blake Price shouldnt host it. The Moj should.

If the Canucks had won the Stanley Cup Luongo would be an MVP candidate. Oh the irony.

I like the idea of going with the hot hand but when you have a goalie like Luongo and all that comes with it I wonder if that scenario would even work out for him at all. It's certainly not a rust issue nor a technical issue. He almost seems to lack any sort of urgency to perform perhaps because it's early in the season..or perhaps he thinks he won't lose his starting position..Either way he seems to need to absorb a lot of games to get his rhythm so for those who want to sit him out in October, who's to say he won't crap out the same way in November? December?

I actually wonder how Luongo would fare if he abandoned his current technical style. Luongo is an instinctual goalie and over the years he has relied far more on proper mechanics and positioning because in practice he looks fabulous. However, in-game there's a certain amount of leverage where you end up abandoning taught skills to make the save and in some games, it looks like his brain just cramps up.

Either way, we're pretty spoiled. We definitely don't have a goaltending problem because even if Luongo crapped the bed, we have an enviable backup in Schneider.

Noir
10-26-2011, 03:29 AM
that first goal Lu let in.... did he try to hand-pass the puck thru his legs to the defenceman RIGHT infront of him? :suspicious:


at least the other 2 were more understandable

No, despite Shorty's commentating, it wasn't miscommunication. Luongo tried to stop the puck from going around the boards like every other goalies do.

It's just the way he handled the puck. It went from "around the boards" --> to his stick --> into his feet.

His between the legs hand pass was just an attempt to salvage the play. Both D on the other side didn't read that Luongo would lose the puck on his legs upon stopping the puck on the boards.


That right there is definitely bandwagoning.

Win a game = Love Luongo
Lose a game = Run Luongo out of town

I've said this time and time again, this isn't NHL on PS3 where you can go 82-0. Teams lose, goals get let in, teams play like shit on some days and don't.

Common sense would be acknowledging the fact that Luongo won't get 82 wins and to expect the hard times and shitty games.

I love Canucks fans. When they win, it's all sunshine, lollipops and rainbows.

And when they lose, they start talking like they've played the game for 30 years and could do SO much better.

1.
It's not bandwagoning when it's the same fans that reappear the next game to watch, or attend the game to sell out the venue. (for like what, how many seasons now?)

2. You can still be a Canuck fan despite not liking 1 member of the team. Yes in this case it was Luongo. How about the fans who disliked certain other members ie. Bulis, Wellwood, etc during their tenure here. Where they unCanuck for not liking "said" players.

Bandwagoning is just a "go-to" card for people who have run out of retorts and as such, really really shows how much they really know.






OTOH, despite Luongo being pulled, I did like his attitude this time around. He looked pissed and seemed pretty unhappy with the turnout (since I've never seen smash his stick in half in reaction).

If thats what it takes to ground the guy and reawaken the old Luongo that earned him his star status.... so be it. I can take this loss as a good thing. Hopefully. But hopefully I'm right about my read on the guy's body language.

10-26-2011, 04:10 AM
Lu's biggest weakness is his mental game so it's safe to say that all the negative comments from fans and media are going to have a big affect on his play. And I think it's unfair to blame Lu for all the loses, there's a lot of blame to go around for the loses so far this season like our defense hasn't exactly been great and it seems like our offensive comes alive when we're down a goal or two.

The honeymoon was over when we lost game 7, Lu's going to have a rough ride in Vancouver until he wins the cup. First place finishes and general success in the post season isn't going to be enough to shut some fans up.

it's frustrating that Lu is letting in garbage goals most of the time and the fact that he's playing well below his standard. although you can pray and hope for lucky bounces and posts, but at the end of the day, Lu has got to stop the puck more often. fans and probably including myself for the most part, would over look it a bit if our offence was playing better as well.
listening to team1040 after the game, there were a ton of callers commenting that they felt the team was playing sloppier in front of Lu because they expect him to stop pucks. and that the team would try harder when schneids is in net because he's the back up.
i almost want to say it should be the other way around at this point. panic when Lu starts in net and play calm and worry-free when schneids is in between the pipes.

I don't buy it. When he lost the NYR, you don't get your shots limited to 20 and under because your defense was sloppy or non-existent.

Same thing with last night, you don't enter the period 0 - 0 because the D was also sloppy or non-existent on the 1st period. The problem is, each and every game, there will always be scoring chances on both sides, the odd times they get past our D, Lu should be the last line of defense; but that's not because the defense sucks, that's just hockey.


I mean, the Schneider save on Eberle, was that the result of the team suddenly play better around him? Nope, it's just the same team in front with just another scoring chance for the other team.

I don't buy it. When he lost the NYR, you don't get your shots limited to 20 and under because your defense was sloppy or non-existent.

Same thing with last night, you don't enter the period 0 - 0 because the D was also sloppy or non-existent on the 1st period. The problem is, each and every game, there will always be scoring chances on both sides, the odd times they get past our D, Lu should be the last line of defense; but that's not because the defense sucks, that's just hockey.


I mean, the Schneider save on Eberle, was that the result of the team suddenly play better around him? Nope, it's just the same team in front with just another scoring chance for the other team.

Luongo has made TONS of highlight reel saves just like Schneider did last night. But I don't judge how good a goaltender is based on desperation saves because that is all they are, lucky, at the right time, desperation saves. 9 out of 10 times that puck would have gone in. And this isn't knocking Schneider but just saying that you can't base how good a goalie is on desperation saves.

Now the game against NYR. The way I see it is the Canucks were owning them. Peppering them with 30+ shots and not getting rewarded for it. It's frustrating. So when NYR gets that first goal in the 3rd period, it put the whole team on tilt. And you know that when you go on tilt, it's only downhill from there.

If the Canucks got the first goal, I bet we would have seen a much different game.

I seriously don't know whether I'm watching the same game as most of you guys. How can you be bashing Lu on goals where the defence was pretty much non-existent and gave the shooters time to pick top corners. Last night against the oilers, only the second goal seemed suspect yet you guys go around running your mouth like all those other goals werent quality chances where Lu had little to no chance.

Look through all the goals that Lu let in and see how many were one timers in the slot wide open, 2 on 1s, top corner shots, or complete breakdowns in the defence. There are 6 players on the ice for a reason.

Seriously, no wonder the rest of the hockey world thinks Vancouver fans are a joke.

Although I mentioned him, I wasn't talking about Lu. What I was addressing, is the defense and the typical fanbase mantra of: "Our defense sucks."

Do people really believe we should blow our core top 2 pairings of:

Edler - Salo
Bieksa - Hammer

Or or people thinking our plugger pairing is at fault:

Alberts - Ballard
Rome + (rotating call ups)

Heck, should the franchise spend $6 - $7M on a norris calibre defensemen the likes of Lidstrom, Pronger, Keith, Doughty... that'll be the end of scoring chances against Lu? Looks like a certain contingent of the fanbase needs to be a lot more in touch with reality than the one they like to criticize.



Besides, I already mentioned in a previous post, Luongo's quick 3 goals against in EDM hopefully would be his own wake up call; because it sure did look like it when he got pulled.

Elliot had good luck. Canucks had bad luck. Simple concept, really.

Yes, the Canucks were outshot and outplayed, but they still had a few good chances. There were two posts, not one. So 3-2..that's a close game, and like I said, it could've gone either way.

Daniel is not the organization. Everyone has their good nights and their bad nights.

If one of the goal posts went in, it would be 3-1 instead of 3-0... And? They still played like shit. Daniel had ONE shot attempt.

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ltelnhVkh31qercxjo9_r2_500.gif

The Canucks have 20 other players to score. Not just Daniel. I don't expect him to get 10 shots a game, but it's not like every time he plays, he'll score.

Not sure if you watched the game..but in the 1st when it was 0-0, Kesler had a shot off the post.

What IF it went in? It would've been 1-0. The momentum would've been on the Canucks side. The game would've had a different outcome for sure. Who knows though.

Don't forget the Canucks played a game at Edmonton a day before. I'm not surprised they played shitty. Anyone that has played hockey knows that playing 2 games in 2 nights isn't easy.

Can't really say that 'cause if we got the first goal instead of them, it probably woulda been a totally different game.

The Canucks are having a series of problems right now. It's becoming consistent with passing blame on a whole slew of players since it's not specifically one facet of the game that is hurting them right now and they are losing differently with each game. Sedins have not been good at all despite their point totals. Hansen, backend pairings, Luongo, complete off nights with special teams, playing from behind, lack of goal production, etc.

They're too good a team not to figure this out eventually but it's hard to play catch up in the standings..

I don't get why people are panicking so early into the season...

Teams that didn't make the playoffs had 5 months to recover. They're the teams that are at the top of their divisions and conference standings as of right now [but not for long :lol]

For the Canucks, this was the SHORTEST offseason for them ever. Having only 3 months to recover isn't a lot compared to other teams getting 4-5 months. It's going to take a few more games/weeks to hopefully see last years 50+ win squad. Some players [aka Luongo] are still taking time to re-adjust. I can guarantee not everyone on the team is 100% [game-wise and mental-wise NOT injury-wise] yet after last season's finals.

The Canucks have always been known to be notorious slow starters in October. Come back in December and complain if they're still doing bad then.

So Daniel would have gotten more than one shot attempt? Because the puck went in?

The team played like shit. They have played like shit for this whole season. They have been shut out THREE TIMES. TWICE at home. All the "puck luck" in the world isn't going to help when your #1 d man is THE WORST MINUS PLAYER IN THE NHL and your goalie is playing like an ECHL reject, and your top scorer is getting ONE shot in a game.

There is a lot this team needs to fix. Scoring one goal against the Blues is not it.

Yes, we had a lot of strong 3rd periods, but playing catch-up hockey is exhausting and no fun.

Last year, we scored the first goal 49 times (out of 82 games).

This year, we've scored first in 2/10 games. That is not a stat to be proud of.

Its called momentum. If kesler scored that goal it would of been a totally different game. Unless u forgot about how we dominated the NYR, if luongo stopped that first goal it would of been a totally different game aswell. Like any sport, a bad pass, a lucky punch, a good bounce can change everything regardless of how bad or good uve been playing

Im not denying the fact that the canucks are playing like shit and have alot of things to fix, but it seems like u dont believe that a lucky bounce can change the outcome of the game. In hockey scoring first is big. They call it "Game Changers" "Turning Points" "Play of the Game" for a reason

not entirely accurate. they sucked ass which gave them high picks like crosby, malkin, fleury, and staal. they went to the finals first and lost to the wings. the next season they almost tanked it so coach was fired and bylsma got promoted. he then turned the team around to make the playoffs and win the cup.

The Canucks WILL pull it back together. Obviously coming back from a loss in game 7 is tough mentally..plus they've had a lot less rest than the teams that didn't make the playoffs or got cut early. Expectations are high, and support has already weakened early in the season. The bandwagoners are temporarily gone. Adjustments will be made, lines will be changed up. Like a few people have already said, October is historically not a great month for the Canucks.

If you don't support the Canucks, get off the bandwagon and stay the fuck off. Otherwise, be patient and support your team. Good things will happen.

You know there's a difference between playing with the lead and playing from behind right? It's a mentality thing.

You can't predict that the score would still have been 3-1 if we got the first goal. Butterfly effect?

There's a reason why they say the 2 goal lead in hockey is the worse. Players slack more when up 2 as opposed to up 1.

but at the end of the day, these if's didn't happen, and I don't think its fair you only account for the what if's for your team, but you ignore the other teams "what if's" I didn't watch the game but I'm sure the other team had scoring chances or hit some posts but no one seems to ever cares when its the other team. But regardless lol I think everyone needs to chill out just a tad bit I understand most people here are very passionate about Canucks hockey but you gotta realize its been 10 games, there are 72 to go.

As a whole, the Nuck's played like crap yesterday. We just need to give the team some time to work out some of the bugs including the power play. Once everyone is on the same page, things will get better.

oh shit i remembered this all wrong. I thought they fired him and hired bylsma just before playoffs happened.

Or was I thinking of another team? Did that even happen at all to another team or am I crazy?

Just so you know the NHL season is 82 games not 10. The playoffs haven't started yet. Its a measly 10 FREAKING GAMES into the season. You make "whole season" sound like the 11/12 NHL season is over when it just started.

It can now be official that you've never played ice hockey in your life before. Try playing one game one day, and another right after the next. Its not easy. Its tiring as fuck. The Canucks are HUMAN, they get tired aswell.

Come back in December or April if the Canucks are still playing like shit and THEN complain and shit on them all you want.. Until then RELAX

malhotra is playing like garbage. his face off % is low as well. what's the point of having him as a role guy when he's not doing his role very well. all the other guys on the team have their roles, so at least he needs to do his. sure when he joined the club, he was doing fine putting up some points, but since coming back from injury, he hasn't done much offensively. if he's not going to contribute with points, then at least do your job and win face offs. i think his face off wins the last few games were like 4/12 last game. im sure he's a great locker room/leader type inspirational player, but still... someone who gets paid 2.5 should at least produce a bit more.

losing way too many offensive zone faceoffs. hey lappierre's faceoff record/% is better, and it's not his main role on the team.

a quick breakdown of last game:
0/3 offensive zone
4/8 defensive zone
0/1 neutral zone
4/12 total

oilers game:
2/5 defensive zone
2/2 neutral zone
4/7 total

minnesota game was a bit better. still low from when he first joined us. which was around 77-78%
0/1 offensive zone
7/9 defensive zone
2/5 neutral zone
9/15 total

pittsburgh
0/2 offensive zone
5/8 defensive zone
2/4 neutral zone
7/14 total

nashville (even tho we stomped them, his faceoff % was way below his standards)
0/2 offensive zone
5/8 defensive zone
3/5 neutral zone

I don't expect AV to do anything. It's not his problem. Malhotra has to get his shit together. As a fan, I'm just frustrated to see him play like this. A guy that's known for his strong defensive play and faceoff proficiency, but isnt winning faceoffs.

Quick look at the stats say that Manny is tied for 2nd in the NHL behind only BMo, who really shouldn't count since he's taken half the number of faceoffs as everyone else.
