I'm indifferent about Luongo leaving. His best season was his first (2007) when he was in top physical form and literally took the team on his back to the 2nd round. If we could have had just one game in Boston in which he didn't shit the bed, he would have a commemorative statue outside Rogers Arena. It's a shame because he had all of the physical tools and attitude coming out of junior to be a winner. Sure, he'll get a team into the playoffs and maybe a couple of rounds in, but most teams know that you just have to get him to move side-to-side and he's done. Since he was injured a couple of seasons ago, he hasn't been the same goalie. I wish him well, but he needs a heck of a D in front of him to win his team a Cup.

Cory is unproven, but he just seems to have the mentality of a winner.
