Yes, for the first 1/3 of his career or so. Bobbly Lu is halfway through his career (more if he falls victim to butterfly related ailments), so better start winning soon!
He does have a gold medal which counts for something, especially considering he took over the starting job from Marty. I'm not saying he stood on his head, however, the the gold medal does count as a winning accomplishment.
Belfour was 33 when he shed the choke status with Dallas in 1998. Lou turns 33 this year, so yes I agree, he needs to start winning now. My point is that he's still got time to shed the image just like Eddy did.
With respect to Lou, he was on crappy teams early in his career and has had a grand total of 3 appearances in the post season. Granted, in those times he hasn't been spectacular in his appearances, but it's still a faily small sample size to judge him. If he doesn't make the finals this season, his career would be falling in the career of the Kolzig's, Beezers, and the Cujo's. Good goalies that just couldn't win the big one.
