Boston's win on Monday sets the cup series up for a nerve-racking final game 7 decider tonight. The good news is it's on Vancouver's home ice. The bad news is that several of the Canucks will be playing injured and the Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo has picked a rather inopportune time to have a bit of a wobble in form. I like Roberto Luongo. His $10 million price tag aside, I find his occasional wobble and apparent recurring inner demons which plague his normally brilliant goaltending ability remind me that we are all human, we can all buckle under pressure and that life is generally full of uncertainty. Unfortunately, the sports world is less understanding and far less forgiving when only a win will do but then, that's sport for you.
