It was reported and speculated as soon as he was traded. March 3rd.
Oh sorry, when did Luongo confirm it? I know speculation means a lot to some...

I don't think this speaks to Lack's suitability as a prospect, but 7 goals in one period is epic level bad. In fact, I'm willing to bet that the vast majority of goalies who have the talent to reach the pros has NEVER let in 7 goals in one period.
He did not look good on a single goal against. I'm not sure why Tortorella left him in there for 'bouncing back' because I definitely didn't see it.
While FAN is definitely premature in his assessments, I think this shows us how much the pressure of being the starter and the difference in routine and workload can change a goalie's game.
But let's not pretend every goalie has a 7 goal period. Probably every goalie has had a 7-8 goal game. But not one period.
Edmonton 13, Vancouver 0
The Globe and Mail [Toronto, Ont] 09 Nov 1985: C.2.
...
Raimo Summanen and Jari Kurri scored on two of the game's first three shots to ignite a four-goal Edmonton first period and propel the Oilers to a 13-0 victory over the Vancouver Canucks... Goaltender Andy Moog kicked out 25 shots, 17 in a hectic second period, to record Edmonton's first shutout of the season. He faced only three shots in the third, when the Oilers didn't allow Vancouver any skating room... The victory was Edmonton's most lopsided in its NHL history.
Dave Lumley had three goals and two assists for Edmonton and Kurri had two goals each. Craig McTavish, Mark Messier, Glenn Anderson, Dave Hunter, Mike Krushelnyski, Mark Napier and Lee Fogolin ran up the Edmonton scoring... The Oilers, who had to fight for a 6-4 victory in Vancouver in midweek, jumped on the Canucks early, rattled goaltender Frank Caprice and then simply added to their score as the game progressed... The victory moved Edmonton eight points ahead of the second- place Calgary Flames in the Pacific (Smythe) Division. The loss left Vancouver third, one point behind Calgary.
