Is there a better goalie in the NHL right now than Roberto Luongo?
I dont think there is. What's everyone else's thoughts?

Think of it this way. The Canucks can not win without Roberto in the net. All the other teams can afford to have their backups in the net and win a game. So therefore, no one is better than Roberto Luongo.

Martin Brodeur is predicted Top 10 Goalies of all time. He is still at the top of his game and the devils are winning. Luongo is in the Top 30 and Vancouver is still a great team but Brodeur has the advantage. Other Notables are: Chris Osgood

I ask myself that on a daily basis. right that's the actuality: Luongo is somewhat stable and each on occasion shows greatness... he additionally has serious meltdowns in take carry of situations (and that includes the Gold medal sport... Canada would not have had to circulate to OT without his mediocre third era overall performance. Crosby stored him in OT). I actually think of that human beings have hyped him lots for hence long merely because of the fact he's a Canadian goalie enjoying for a Canadian team.... human beings choose him to be super. at cases he's super yet he's greater overall than super as time has shown. I truthfully have on no account seen a athlete so hyped for hence long without effects.

Not a chance in the world. Give Luongo a team like Hasek or Broduer (at least the potential the Devils have; I agree Broduer is the reason they are doing as good as they have been) then Luongo would be dominating the league in every category. Take Luongo off Vancouver and they'll hit rock bottom.

Luongo, wasnt won a darn thing. You people say if he was on Detroit or NJ, he would be. Well the simple fact is, he isnt. If he was such a great goalie, why hasnt he taken his team anywhere? Vancouver is no slouche of a team, but still, where have the gone?? Nowhere. LITY, that is so lame, "since nov 1st". Well since last night, Hasek is perfect, so he must be the greatest. Why dont you guys come up with a better argument, than a buch of "ifs".

No, there's Brodeur, and Osgood from what everybody's saying. I wouldn't know about the Wings' goalie because I rarely see Wings games.

Since November 1st, the two best goaltenders in the NHL have been Martin Brodeur and Dominik Hasek (1.37 GAA and 3 SO in his last 11 starts)
