VANCOUVER - In his four seasons as the Vancouver Canucks, Roberto Luongo (shouts) has never been known to Mr. October. Luongo has been a slow start, in general, the better part of a month to find their rhythm. In other words, it is not Reggie Jackson.
Until this season. The best part of the weekend, the Canucks long by Luongo, who set in two games against 74 shots and gave them two goals. He turned away 41 shots Monday night, the Canucks to a 2-1 victory over the Florida Panthers support to Rogers Arena.
After a groin injury that limited him only two preseason games, Luongo seemed almost ready for another slow start. Before opening the regular season on football jerseys
Saturday night against the Los Angeles Kings, Luongo had a total of two weeks without playing.
I looked at this way, usually a good pre-season and have a bad start, said Luongo. This time I really have no pre-season ever, so that it the path to withdraw the jump. I think it's mostly psychological, and of course I was in a lot of work in practice. May be paid work can be difficult. So far, I felt great and I want to build only what I started here in the camp. It is well documented that Luongo made under the direction of coach Rollie Melanson guards some changes to his game. He was asked some remain deep in his net, stores the theory that in a better position to be on rebounds and played through the back door.
It seems to work the night to Monday great that Luongo be in a good location, searched all night and made a series of big saves at close range. Its most difficult of the night came 12 minutes in the third period. After an initial backup to Steve Bernier (Notes) hits Luongo was pushed into his enclosure to keep your book in a Shawn Matthias (white) shot.
About two minutes later Daniel Sedin (white) the winning goal.
I feel good, Luongo said of the changes work. That is the question of just always in a good position. Sometimes even when you are outside, and the third step, can expand and perhaps get them a little. When I said I, what is the main thing is that you must do and I believe. He looked very good and confident, challenging the right time, coach Alain Vigneault in Vancouver. He was under control and he was the goalkeeper who can know. It gives us a chance to win. Great Monday night had beat the game the feeling of Chargers jersey
opening on Saturday, when the kings of evil Canucks 2 -1 in a shootout.
The Canucks came back to the first strike at 12: 39 the first time when Daniel Sedin flipped a rebound past goalie Tomas Vokoun to Florida (notes) that attempted a coup rather than a benign presence for Mikael Samuelsson (notes).
Major Vancouver tried to keep the second period, the Panthers to a pair of rebounds in front of chance in the final minute of the period of Luongo.
Rostislav Olesz end (white) was just trying to flip the puck in the net when he appeared at the clubs of the two Samuelsson and defender Alex Edler Luongo before rebounding last hit.
Winner Daniel came as he was falling to the ice. He succeeded in crushing a bulk package Vokoun.
I think (Vokoun) to themselves, said Sedin.
Although pleased with these two points, the Canucks are not satisfied with many aspects of his game They left too many shots and not force the Panthers work hard to get a single sentence.
We were not sharp tonight, said Daniel. We had some good ball back and we need to improve. However, no one complained. The leader of the Canucks in the road for two games in Southern California and would not leave without a victory.
He was very nice to get to you as soon as possible, said Luongo. They do not live here without at least two points in the bag head. It was a close game and night to find a way to get there at the end of the game. Vigneault does not seem too concerned that his team was beaten by a team from Florida, who seemed a little hungrier.
This is the NHL today, he said. Smart There are no bad teams. I watched the game last night (in Edmonton). I knew we would play hard fight. They play hockey, high percentage do not give much room on the ice and playing, what a true much more intense hard work goes on Bears jersey
