I really think you're going a bit overboard.

You can't compare Roberto Luongo vs Vladimir Myshkin. I personally don't like the move, but it's not because Luongo is not a good goalie. I would just take my chances with the first ballot hall of famer, who is still playing at a very high level (but that doesn't mean I'm not enjoying it).

You would think that they will thrash Germany and then it will become even tougher to pull Luongo in favor of going back to Marty. Unless he plays poorly, he's his show to lose.
