Everyone seems to forget how classless he was in the SCF when he whined about not getting any praise from Thomas. Canuck fans and luongo sympathizers like to use the 2010 Olympics to argue for luongo but team canada out-chanced and outshot the Americans 2 to 1 and luongo never gave team canada that game saving stop that great goalies do

I agree. That goal was not the only reason why I didn't he deserves to be in the Olympic. How can an inconsistent goalie and even lost his starting position to a backup even be considered to start on goal in the Olympics. I think he is the most overrated player in the NHL. Yes he was okay in 2010... that was 2010 and he hasn't crap about his play since. Iginla was good in 2010, doesn't mean he should also be the starting RW for Sochi team.. no! So, the nedia should just forget about the 2010 Olympics and look at what transpired in the last few seasons in the NHL. In that case, Luongo does not deserve to be even mention as a candidate. I am sure there are other goalies that are deserving. Craig Anderson should be mention because he's been spectacular with Ottawa.I don't even hear them mention Anderson's name.
