Answering the calls since being benched in Game 6 of the first round series against the Chicago Blackhawks, Canada's Roberto Luongo has moved one step closer to hockey's holy grail.
Looking forward to the Western conferences semi-final matchup of Vancouver vs. San Jose, goaltending is to be, as usual, a decision point for who will move on to the Championship Final.
During the season Luongo was 1-0-1 with a 0.96 GAA and .975 save percentage in two starts against San Jose in the regular season.
"I've waited my whole life to be in a situation like this and just going to take advantage of it and enjoy the moment," the 32-year-old said Saturday. "It's going to be exciting. Conference final for the first time for me against a team that has some skill up front, it's a fun time for me to be playing hockey.
"I've been waiting a long time to be in this position and I'm just going to go out there and have fun." - Roberto Luongo, Dhiren Mahiban of NHL.com.
