Why would a person continue to advertise his low I.Q. to the whole wide world?
Don't keep us in suspense, tell us, why are you doing it?

If I remember 2010 correctly, Lu coughed up a 3rd period lead and needed Crosby to save his *** in overtime to win that gold. Fortunately, there seemed to be little chance of the same happening with Price.
ETA: I don't detract from 2010 at all. A gold is a gold is a gold just glad they went with the hot hand and Price this year.
Price had a hot streak going during the NHL games prior to the Olympics... Lou wasn't doing bad, but Price was hot.
I'll wager that fact played more of a factor than anything else
luongo is having a good season, but i agreed with price playing in the olympics, was glad he played,
and obviously that was babcock's plan, as the game that luongo did play, he did well, so it wasn't
because he didn't play well, it was 'the' plan, and it was the right one. i feel more comfortable
with price in goal, he is so calm and steady, and better in my opinion, but had price been injured
i don't doubt that luongo would have done just fine, babcock isn't stupid, he wouldn't have brought
him to the olympics just because he likes him, he knew how he was playing this season, thus was given
the nod, along with smith.

I also do not think the time to change goaltender would be after one completed a shutout in the quarter-finals. He was hot in the Olympics at the right time.

Unfortunately I missed them.Oh Sal I hope you got to watch the Figure Skating Gala tonight. Tessa and Scott were magical. What a wonderful performance. It brought tears to my eyes thinking this may be the last time we see them. Such grace.
I was going to boycott it but I thought it would be disloyal to our Olympic skaters. Glad I had second thoughts.

Nobody!!!....OK, almost nobody would consider such a move
That would explain why he would think that Lu would be a good choice for the gold medal game.

I totally agree with you Talloola. Not quite sure how this discussion got this far. It started with me asking one simple question that required a one word answer. But then "AIRHEAD" decided to get sarcastic and I should have dropped it realizing he was just being his normal self. I've always liked Lu through thick and thin and I like to see him do well.
I wouldn't call Gerry an "Airhead". He, like me, was just amazed that somebody would even consider a goaltending change. I seriously thought you were joking because the whole idea was so ridiculous.
Bingo!

In your opinion. - - - - If you could read there, Einstein I never suggested a goal tending change!
yes, jlm, you have to work on figuring out what is 'worth' replying to and what isn't, then you won't
get stuck in the gutter with others who are there., i find it is very important to stay happy and balanced,
and getting sucked into that sort of garbage isn't good for one's health, and has no quality attached to
it, no constructive outcome, just more or the same.
