Canucks netminder Roberto Luongo has fallen into one of his funks yet again — this time allowing 12 goals in less than two games during Games 3 and 4 in Boston.
Will Luongo be in the crease when the teams line up for Game 5 on Friday night in Vancouver, or will Cory Schneider be between the pipes to mix things up?
This mid-series slip-up is nothing new for Luongo. During their opening round against the defending Stanley Cup champion Blackhawks, the 32-year-old keeper allowed 11 goals in three straight losses after leading the 'Nucks to three straight wins to kick off the tournament. As if watching his goals-against average climb by the minute wasn't bad enough, Luongo was yanked from all three of those defeats. He was, however, given the nod in Game 7 and responded by allowing just one goal in a winning 31-save effort. Schneider wasn't much of a help off the bench in that series, though, as the Boston College alum allowed five goals on 41 shots.
