Little Psycho
I solemnly swear I'm up to no good
A lot of MEH players. I know everyone likes complaining about Carter and Kunitz but a lot of top guys didn't look good either like
Perry, Getzlaf, Nash, and Sharp
Perry, Getzlaf, Nash, and Sharp
Carter lead the west in Goals last year and plays RW and has speed..just saying.
Also Hall plays LW.

The hate for carter after one game is laughable.
Honestly what's so funny about that?
I personally believe, and I'm in the minority here, Luongo will start against Finland if he performs adequately tomorrow. Why switch back to Price if Luongo and Canada play better tomorrow? You keep going. It's a process, and if Canada looks better tomorrow with Luongo in goal, you stick with it. No need for another goalie change. There needs to be some consistency starting soon.I said it in thread.
Luongo gets the next game (does not matter if he plays well or not), Price plays vs finland(They will want to see if price can play in big type games vs good opponents). If price plays well in this game, he runs with it. If he falters at all, Luongo to gold.
Says the Kings fan. It's funny, I don't think I've ever read a comment downplaying deserved criticism of a certain player and had the poster's location not been from the city of said player's NHL team. Embarrassing.
.... so luongo gets to play vs austria and if price has a bad game vs finland lu gets a free pass until the finals?
doesnt make any sense
I think it depends on the Quality and Quantity of shots Luongo faces.

If Kunitz and Carter were the first line wingers on my nhl team, I'd be searching high and low for an upgrade.
For my nhl team.
Someone took my post personally. Please show me where I suggested or even hinted at him playing well? I found it funny lots of guys had bad games today but people want to focus on one or two guys.
Reading comprehension is so overrated these days its becoming embarrassing.
Austria has Grabner (who scored a hat-trick against Finland), Vanek, and Raffl. How is Austria weaker than Norway exactly? Canada will play better tomorrow regardless, so it shouldn't matter.Exactly.
See above quote.
Price was actually somewhat tested today with 20 shots and a couple of decent chances against the better team of the two (AUS and NOR). At least more than what people previously expected. If Luongo faces 8 shots or 10 perimeter shots and isn't tested, how does Luongo warrant the start against Finland over Price? Basing performance and who should start simply on goals against is what is laughable.
Sure, if Luongo has a great game against Austria and faces some decent opportunities and is actually somewhat tested as Price was today, then he would certainly be in contention to start against Finland. But as general as the statement of "If Luongo shuts out Austria then he should start again Finland" and the fact that Austria is the weaker of the two teams, is what made it a laughable statement. Well, to me at least.
