Roberto Luongo limped out of the visitor’s locker room late Thursday night with a “what are you going to do?” look on his face.
A few hours before, Luongo started in what turned out to be a 2-1 shootout loss to the Philadelphia Flyers.
He wouldn’t finish it.
Luongo left Thursday’s game after playing through pain for much of the first period. Luongo made 13 saves and helped kill off a lengthy 5-on-3 power play chance by the Flyers despite aggravating a condition he has been dealing with for sometime midway through the first.
James Reimer came in to start the second and ended up making 35 saves in a wild game in which both teams combined for 89 shots yet just two goals.
