Because Vancouver fans. We aren't torching Luongo, but the biaised fans who wanted to see Luongo on ice above everything else.

I'd suggest it does as long as the team keeps winning.
Just like Crosby in 2010...one goal is all it takes.

uhh it is still the Marleau-Toews-Carter doing the most at both ends of the ice, by quite a bit.
They are your savior, bow to Toews and the bubble players

Bad performances? Last I checked Canada hasn't had any bad performances and are a perfect 5-0 right now.
They've had lots of great games so far. Just ask Babcock. That's why he's riding that line like a horse bareback style!!!

Well to be fair, they were outstanding against Russia in the semi's and finals in Vancouver. And they were today as well, with the goal that gets Canada to the gold medal game, and guaranteed Silver.
They are big game players, wouldn't be surprised more of the same against Sweden.
3 big guys that are almost impossible to handle with their cycle game.
Toews has been stellar as he always is. He's the same type of player as Getzlaf. Fully reliable on offense and defense. Carter has been pretty good but take away that one game where he had a hat trick and he's pretty much invisible. Marleau? LOL. He wasn't even good in 2010.
Well, he still hasn't scored a goal and we're in the finals. Hopefully he wakes up and scores us some goals.
Benn has been great for sure, but one player doesn't make a line. It takes 3. Since slotting Benn in with the Getzlaf line, they all got better. Perfect match. I give credit to the coaching staff for making this move.

what does 2010 have to do with this tournament?
Marleau was the best defensive forward today, he was 2 steps ahead of every USA player on the boards and corners. Carter's speed was also very present today as well. It seems like you're a pretty big Ducks homer if you're going to put down Carter and Marleau and act as if Getzlaf has been a bigger player this tourny.
I also agree with this guy. He's a hell of a player. Not nearly as effective with Duchene.
Good thing Price was able to stop that perimeter shot eh?
No replays during the game suck. These gif's rock.

Unfortunately, there are way too many who seem insistent that if PK were in this line-up, the game would be so far out of reach that the Canadians could put Tavares on crutches back there and we'd be fine
Three zone clinic put on today
Can we all please stop whining about who is and who isn't playing. Put your NHL team allegiance aside and get behind Team Canada. I don't care that Luongo and Hamhuis are out. Our D are all awesome, even those sitting on the bench. Carey has been stellar and so has Luongo. One guy has to sit. People complaining about Kunitz might want to acknowledge that although he isn't finishing, the guy is getting chance after chance and he's doing quite a bit of it based on his own ability.
Lets get that gold!!! GO CANADA GO!!!
Lets get that gold!!! GO CANADA GO!!!
Lol, Getzlaf isn't even half the player Toews is on the defensive side of things.
Well I had to go out for a bit after the game so I didn't get my chance until now. Let me have this one
