08:16 AM ET 02.05 | Among the outcomes to a crease controversy in Vancouver, most were complicated, which is how things are turning out so far -- but, like his client, the agent for goalie Cory Schneider isn't about to criticize the Canucks' handling of the situation. But Mike Liut, himself a former goalie, clearly hopes the uncertainty regarding a possible trade of Roberto Luongo does not hang over the team and Schneider all season. "Our concern is we were hoping that this would be the year that Cory would play 75 per cent of the games," Liut said [Monday]. ... "We are not going to get into the finger-pointing game and to that end you have to take a step back and you have to give them latitude to make a business decision."

Fun fact about Mike Liut: Had the best GAA in the NHL in 1989-90, posting a 2.64.

Last season, he would've placed 30th.

That's the closest photo they have of Cory looking over his shoulder.

Looks like Lou might earn number one status in this short season. Gillis better hang on to both for now.

Not to worry! They always have "Three Fingers" or "Fighting Crosby" on standby.

Lulongo is like the San Jose Sharks. Great during the regular season. Lousy when it counts.

What makes it even better is that in San Jose, nobody really cares about hockey so they just move onto something else.

In Canuckleland, they die horrible deaths when the inevitable collapse occurs. Shock and awe is on every face post collapse.

It's beautiful.

I'll say this much about Lu - he seems content. Very content.

Lou tells Cory "I got your back" and Cory wonders why he feels a hand on both shoulders.
