Nov 21 G Roberto Luongo doesn't seem to be suffering from time off the way he has in the past. Luongo returned recently from a hairline rib fracture that kept him out for two weeks without developing any rust in his game, a problem for the Canucks captain early each season and after previous extended absences, splitting his first two games back last week while playing well, then turning in another solid 22 save performance in Friday's 5-2 win over Colorado despite being off again for six days because of an odd quirk in the schedule.

Nov 13 Despite making his first start since Oct. 27 on Thursday, Luongo's rib injury isn't expected to be fully healed for another three weeks, the Vancouver Sun reports.

Recommendation: Take this as a reminder that Luongo may not be at top form and might see more nights off than we're accustomed to seeing from the All-Star netminder over the next few weeks.
