People tend to project their own failures in life and their poor financial situations onto scapegoats like politicians and athletes. Luongo is going to make a lot of money for some years yet. Because people in this city make peanuts, they think that $7 million a year should buy them a machine that will manufacture Stanley Cups. It just doesn't work that way - not in sports, nor in real life. People want perfection in this city because they themselves feel overworked and underpaid.
Lol, no.
