With Roberto Luongo's departure to Florida, Eddie Lack is now the starting goaltender in Vancouver. He had a shutout last night over Nashville 2-0 with 30 saves. Lack has a losing record at 13-14-4 with a 2.34 GAA and an average .915 SP. He is 3-2 in his last 5 games allowing 11 goals. But he will likely be the man for the Canucks in goal for the rest of the year. This is Lack's first year as a starter in the NHL, so it is difficult to ascertain his capabilities this soon, as he does not have much of a track record in the NHL. The 26 year old tends to get hurt a lot, and watching him play he seems to be pretty average as he goes up and down in performance. He may be a good 2nd goaltender choice, but not much better than that. He needs to prove himself some more. But if you need help at that position, he my help you.
