21. Hockey. Vancouver Canucks, but I also support 5 of the 7 Canadian teams (sorry Calgary and Ottawa). Scarborough - born and raised. University student. Hip-hop is my truest love, I swear.I also adore trashy reality TV (a la Maury) and stuffing my face with food.

If you like the Canucks, or if you like Patrick Kane - I think we could be really good friends. If you like both, I'll probably ask you to marry me.

Since I already showed my earnest face tonight, talking about Mats Sundin, I’m going to take a moment to seriously discuss Roberto Luongo. I know! Insert joke about Roberto Luongo! The third suggestion on google, after ‘roberto luongo’ and ‘roberto luongo contract’, is ‘roberto luongo jokes’. And I make them too, because he’s very easily demoralized, and that does havoc to his away games and can put him in some really self-destructive streaks.
But here’s why that’s stupid.
In all-time records for goaltenders (there are 45 of them), Luongo holds 5. Think about that for a minute. The only goal-tender to exceed him is Martin Brodeur (who has alllll the records because damn, that’s some longevity).
Patrick fucking Roy has less records.
And yes, some are stupid, like most home games played in a season, but there’s also most saves in a season (2303(!!) in 03-04) and most overtime wins (49). Overtime, in which there is sudden death and shoot outs, so fuck that whole ‘can’t handle pressure’ thing, because you don’t get much more pressure than OT.
So, TLDR;  basically my point is this: when Luongo has his bad days, they’re bad. I know. But he’s still (and records support this) one of the best goaltenders this league has ever seen. So fuck all this noise. He’s still my boy.
