I've decided to come support my fellow Canuck fan.
Everybody here seems to think that this entire team is based around Roberto Luongo and his ability to stop the puck. Last night it was shown that Sanford isn't a bad goalie, and he made some big time saves.
It's also important to look at Schneider's stats:
10-1 record.
.945 SV Per
1.37 GAA.
I realize its only the AHL, but keep in mind that this is his first year playing professional hockey where he is the consistent starter. Hes going to be great. Furthermore, he proved he could stop NHL players in the pre-season, where he got 3(?) starts. The Canucks have some good options in net, and I think you've all underrated Sanford. Keep in mind he has been under Luongo's tutelage for the last year and a half.
Also, our third line is downright dominant. Burrows-Kesler-Hansen continues to shut down the leagues top offensive players, and both Kesler and Burrows have over 5 goals (5 and 6, respectively.) Top that off with one of the best top six's in the league (no superstars, but at the same time everybody has the ability to be in any teams top 4, except for maybe O'Brien), we can expect the Canucks to continue to do well, if not quite as well as they have been doing in the month of November.
