Roberto Luongo Save of The Year

Since coming to Vancouver, Roberto Luongo has been absolutely stellar for the Canucks. With a less than tremendous offensive effort from stars like Markus Naslund, Luongo and the Dancing Sedin Twins have been carrying this team on their shoulders for the majority of the season.
Just when you think that a goaltender is hot and cannot possibly get any better, Luongo goes and pulls off this amazing save.
Enjoy the video below, you’ll probably have to watch it a few times…I did.
Glove tap to Alanah for the pointer.

That was nice indeed! Yeesh. But would it be his save of the year? Err..I’d have to think about that one.

OK, I might have gone out on a limb…but he was so out of position and that glove hand was his last hope. Maybe luckiest save of the year?

Awesome save, just goes to show that you should never give up.
Luongo has definitely been stellar this year, too bad the rest of the Canucks haven’t been half as good.
