Fair enough, he hasn't played as many "big games" compared to Lu. HOWEVER, he hasn't shat the bed BADLY versus the Chicago's, or Boston's as many times as Lu did...
I think the Canucks should alternate play the goalies for the playoffs. Game 1,3,5 (if needed) for Lu, and game 2,4,6 (if needed) for Cory. Screw with the go with the #1 goalie - if we win the cup just because we gave more rest to the goalies, all the better.

As fans we can all agree this logic works.
But do you actually think AV would do it? He put a slumping MASON RAYMOND of all people to the 2nd line and demoted Higgins...

I don't think this has ever been done in history.
They always go with either #1 goalie or the hottest goalie.
There's no room for risk and experimentation in the playoffs.

Well it's time to make history then
But in all seriousness, it blows my mind how Lu can be a world class goaltender at home and then becomes a guy who looks like he played goaltender for the first time during away games...
I was at the game today and man it was hard to watch. Aside from the higgins goal it was a very boring game. I mean from the 2nd period onward the canucks weren't even fore checking.
How about St. Louis...Do they go with Elliot or Halak? They've called Halak their 1A all season, though their 1B, Elliot, has outperformed him and leads the league with 9 shutouts in just 36 games and is coming off 3 shutouts in a row...
avs moves are questionable. when schneider was on his hot streak and carried the team while luongos bed was moistens with his out shit. he found any excuse to pull schneid and made luongo the #1 again.
hodsgon wins rookie of the month , then gets promoted to the 4th line???
raymond was playing his worse hockey then gets promoted to the 1st line? then was the extra attacker that same game??? then gets benched the next game...
think tanev is the most defensively sound defencemen on the team... he just needs to shoot more! all our d seem to be reluctant to shoot...
Realistically, history would indicate Luongo will shit the bed eventually through the playoffs,
and I don't think AV would hesitate this time to put in Schneider.
I could imagine MG would personally step in and make that call if necessary.
There's no time to experiment, and I'm sure everybody's thinking we would at least
have had a better chance to win the cup last year if Schneider was in net.
But I'll still give Luongo first dibs with his experience, and wait until he blows it before we play Schneider.
While Schneider comes in here and there to play games, and he performs well even against top tier teams,
he hasn't done so in long stretch of games.
There's no saying Luongo couldn't have done the same as well.
Teams don't study backup goalies as much, and playing few games here and there won't reveal as many holes in the goalie's game.
