This is such a stupid argument--because it's just as applicable the other way: you're blind to Luongo's flaws because he's a Canuck.
In the end, the only thing that matters is that Luongo is a very good shot blocker. He's a big body, and when he's on his game he's a very technically sound goaltender that can keep a team in a lot of games.
But he can't hold Martin Brodeur's jockstrap. And this tournament won't change that fact.

Very humble eh, Broduer's post game comments:

I made the saves. It was a tough game. They got some bounces and scored some goals, one goes off my player. I made some key saves I thought in the game to turn it around and we just didn’t take advantage of it. After the two breakaway saves I made in the second I thought maybe something as going to happen and we went on to take three penalties in a row and they score that fourth goal that was important for them.

A very team oriented humble guy indeed
