Luongo leaves with lower body injury
Early in the Canucks vs penguins game this morning, Luongo appears to have a lower body injury and left the ice without putting any weight on his left leg. Could be a groin injury by the looks of it. Curtis Sanford has entered the net in replacement of Luongo. Luongo’s injury isn’t yet known but we will keep you updated.
update:
Dan Murphy announced during the first period that Luongo will not return to the game, and is out with a lower body injury. It’s a good thing Curtis Sanford had that big confidence-boosting win two nights ago against Minnesota, as he may be playing in net for a few games to come. The Canucks are up 1-0 after one period of play, with a goal by Pavol Demitra.

The sight of Luongo being helped off the ice like that is a nightmare for Canuck fans. If luongo is done for an extended period of time, the Canucks are done for on many levels. No more Sundin, no playoffs, and maybe time to rebuild. There are the positives of using cory schneider or picking tavares/hedman… my thoughts http://jib-sports-culture.blogspot.com/2008/11/roberto-luongo-injured-future-of.html
