Roberto Luongo News

Luongo did not skate today and is day-to-day with a lower-body injury.

Canucks head coach John Tortorella told reporters that he is day-to-day and Eddie Lack will start Saturday. Luongo will not dress as Joacim Eriksson will serve as Lack's backup. There are very few details on Bobby Lu's injury, but it sounds like the Canucks are planning to have him back by next week. In the meantime, Lack is the #1 in Vancouver and should make for a great start on Saturday vs. the Flames.
