With Luongo back the Canucks still suffer.

Luongo looked a little rusty in his first game back in 24 games. The Vancouver Canucks Captian and leader started out slow but began to look like his old self in the third period again. B4 the game Luongo said B4 the game, that he could not be a saviour for the team and that they all had to step up. He was clearly not a saviour letting in at least 2 bad goals. I was personaly at he game, which was a bad game and a bad investment, to buy the tickets and go to the game. Luongo defanitly looked like his old self in goal in the 3rd period making a couple huge saves. Highlighted by one highlight reel save on shane doan. However the Canucks look somewhat uncomfortible with playing lately, after recieveing alot of boos for there fans in their recent home games, they must be a bit on edge and uncomfortible. Alex Edler seems like he does not remember how to skate. As he tripped over everyline on the ice that came his way. Also i noticed that the Vancouver Canucks failed to gain the other teams zone, time after time after time they continued to dump the puck in and change lines. Phoenix however seemed to gain the zone and keep posession of the puck, Vancouver needs to do this more often. Vancouver also gave away to many pucks during this game. During the game VS. the san jose sharks. Vancouver had 38 givaways. Vancoubver has alot of improvments to make to make themselfs and comtender in the playoffs.
