Anyone else think of this when Fleury and Canada are mentioned together?
<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/aJmhM0pvpOo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/aJmhM0pvpOo&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

I think Luongo will definitely start. He had a shutout in his first game and as much as I love Brodeur, he hasn't been playing up to par. Time to forget about seniority

Canada vs Finland tonight at 8

^Hey, why did you have to go and bring that up again (I don't even have to look. I know what it is) lol.
That was 6 years ago. I believe when you are selecting players, for an event like this, you have to go with the old saying 'what have you done for me lately'. Simple as that!
When was Brodeur's last cup (7 seasons ago, playing on the best and most defensive minded club in the NHL) and what has Luongo won lately?
PS
for goodness sake - Fleury won a cup with Hal Gill on the point, lol

I know, I'm not holding it against him or anything lol. I agree with you to an extent, but that's the past. Luongo has the best SV% out of the three with Fleury in last. Luongo has a GAA virtually the same as Brodeur's, and again, Fleury has the worst of the 3. Not saying Fleury isn't a good, he's already shown that he is. I just think Luongo will get the start against Germany

^ It was close after about 3 ends, but Martin excelled the rest of the way and the US really never had a chance. Great shot making by Martin, best I've seen so far.

^Ball room dancing on figure skates...I only now because back in highschool, 1982, I dated a Canadian Junior pairs dance champion (Deb Horton of Goderich) for a couple years. The thing I recall hating the most was how her dance partner was touching her more than I was. lol (he was Curtis Moore of Wingham)
She had some nice attributes though
