think he's day by day....I'm going to the Canucks/Thrashers game in January w/ my Dad, hopefully he's back by then. what really sucks is Vancouver's back up goalie got injured a week after Luongo. |

Crazy that they had one of the best all last season with essentially the same core group. Ozzie still weirds me out sometimes... like he's right on the edge of a breakdown all the time... It's gonna be tough to win games when you have to score 5, 6, 7 goals to overcome lacking defense.

Normally this would be a good thing hoping Vancouver is tired out after playing the Wings, but for some reason the Wild have struggled against teams in this situation. Then again games between these two teams are usually close hard fought battles. Hopefully the Canucks used up all their goals for the week against Detroit.  |
