NHL Monday: Canucks, Panthers tussle as Florida’s streak comes to an end

What Luongo is doing right now should be impossible for a goaltender of his age. At 36, Luongo has a .930 save percentage, just under his career high of .931 that he set back in 2003-04 as a 24-year-old. Luongo came close back in the 2010-11 season when he posted a .928 save percentage in 60 games, but as a goaltender who will turn 37 by the heat of the playoff races in April, what Luongo is doing is nothing short of remarkable.

Goaltenders are not supposed to be putting up these kinds of numbers. Most goaltenders noticeably decline in their 30s, and especially past age 35. Do most goaltenders a few months shy of 37 make these kinds of saves look easy? Not many, I bet.

The Panthers broadcasters also had some confusing words to say about the Sedin twins and peanut butter.

No one really knows who started the whole thing. The Canucks say a Panthers comment set them off.

The video below from the Department of Player Safety highlights the suspension, which is officially given as a boarding call from the NHL.

The hit in the third period stirred the pot between the two teams as Ekblad not only lost his helmet on the crunching hit, but the play was not given a call on the ice from the officials present. Hendricks led with his elbow and while it wasn’t a headshot, the force of the Oilers forward drove Ekblad into the boards face-first.
