Luongo’s demons

It’s probably been done elsewhere (as always, Tyler Dellow sums it up well), but:

Luongo career regular season: 308-269-75, .919%, 2.53
Luongo career playoffs: 32-27, .917%, 2.50

Luongo career Game 7s: 2-1, .931%, 1.62 (the only Game 7 before this season was a 4-1 win vs. Dallas in 2007)

Being beaten by Toews, Kane, Patrice Bergeron and Tim Thomas does not equate to not being clutch. If the Canucks don’t have a deep playoff run next season (and I expect they won’t), blame puck luck and the cruelty of the hockey gods, not some Borat clone from Bourassa who’s too mentally fragile to win when it really counts.
