Is Roberto Going to Start on Tuesday?
Dec 17th, 2007
Our man Roberto Luongo, goal tender for the Vancouver Canucks, has been out for the last four games because of a rib injury he received in a game on December 2nd. Now, he is benched and Canuck fans are terrified that also benched are any hope we may have at a chance at the Stanley cup this season.
Now, at first glance it may not seem all that bad; after all, we have only lost one game since he has been benched. True enough, but the simple fact is that Curtis Sanford just does not have the experience in front of the net we need to continue to play at a world class level.
The ‘Nucks defense based strategy is based around Roberto Luongo being in front of the net, and if that is going to change, then so must the Canuck’s defense strategy.
Right now rumors are flying everywhere about Roberto Luongo’s injuries. Personally, i am thinking he will be out for several more weeks, but boy do I hope I am wrong.
