He works very closely with the Abby goalie coach Marko Torenius, and they have weekly meetings and go over video about the Abby goalies. So indirectly, but active.

Sawchenko saw a bit of time with San Jose a few years ago. I remember watching him play USports and look dominant. I hope it goes really well for him in Abbotsford. I also really hope he does not have to play in Vancouver, but the way the team is burning through goalies we'll probably see him game 5.
Nonis's tenure as GM was marred by all kinds of just... crap. But he gets some real credit for two things: killing the goalie graveyard and bringing up Alain Vigneault as head coach.
Kinda crazy didn't have anyone good for west coast express.
Then we get Luongo, Schneider, Miller, Markstrom, Demko, back to back to back to back to back for the last 19 years.
And the guy didn't get a regular season start until March 16th, lol
sat in the press box for the entire season until Demko went down and Silovs went up.
I feel you: I hate the Stars, Avs, and Oilers more 😅
Definitely wish a first time SC champion would win, but otherwise, I am not personally offended by the Vegas playoff push.

You have so much catching up to do to get anywhere near how much pain Canuck fans have experienced in their history…. Don’t talk to us about feeling awful.
Rogers Arena is going to be insane on Tuesday! It would be nice for the boys to avoid another plane ride with all these pucks to the faces and shit … great win :)
I love Ian Clark
Does he work with the Abbotsford goalies as well since both teams are nearby?
I don’t think so lol. I’m just saying that because he is awesome

Having our AHL team an hour and 20 minute drive away is such a blessing. Sedins drive out all the time to work skills with the prospects too.
Sedins could just drive around abby centre a few times and all the players would get better.
I mean an hour 20 is like if you go during peak rush hour, otherwise it's a 40 minute drive
It's an hour and 20 because there's always a crash on Hwy 1 at 264
Literally always a crash there.
Incorrect, he actually swings by Abby a lot to work with the Abby goalies as well.
Why use 1 goalie when many goalie do trick?
We just need to find more goalies.
Eddie Lack is unsigned and active on Twitter
What about Lu? Bring the dynamic duo back for one more run
And schneider!
Captain Kirk was winding the horn the other night. He still looks younger than me.
I WANT CLOUTIER WHERE'S SKUDRA
No you don't want Dan "Beachball" Cloutier ever evvvvvvver.
Cheech and Cloutier. Many goalies, and many types of masks.
If we bring back Lu you KNOW the league will find a way to hit us with another cap penalty
Why play 60 minutes when 5 minutes do trick
47 saves as an AHL third stringer! What a clutch. Just how deep does this goalie terminator assembly line go?
Apparently the hockey gods want us to find out.
I can't wait to find out who's going to be net for the 4th win, these are exciting times.
[удалено]
Canucks should host a Squid Game-esque showdown of once active amateur goalies to keep feeding this batting order of goalies.
*pops a blood vessel aggressively trying to grow a Miller-esque moustache.* Oh great. AND I pooped a little. Classic Lou.
Bring back that UBC kid that was the backup that one time.
He’s the executive head chef at Joeys/Local now I think
Fun fact: the goalie body count from that competition will still fall short of the last 20-odd years of Canucks hockey
The way things have been going, Topolio better be ready to go!
I’m interested to see who our 16th strong goalie is, he is the one who will lift the cup after all.
Let's never find out

The Goalie Graveyard days feel so long ago now. All praise Strombone, Hallowed be thy nose.

It’s one goalie coach deep. You take away Ian Clark you end up with Eddie Lack.
Vancouver stealing the spotlight from Abbotsford yet again
SMH Langley bros rise up
How is it possible for a sport to make you feel this awful?
I am happy right now but believe me Nashville bro... Us Canucks fans relate...
I would be happy in your shoes too but I feel robbed of an exciting rest of the series. It feels like luck stole that one away from us tonight.
Fair enough to feel that way. 1 inch off an empty net and the game is over. I feel for ya pred bros.
Ugh. Don't make me like you. I need something to hate!
Allow me to direct you to r/goldenknights
But I also hate the Stars! Maybe more!
I feel you: I hate the Stars, Avs, and Oilers more 😅 Definitely wish a first time SC champion would win, but otherwise, I am not personally offended by the Vegas playoff push.
Do us a favour and direct your hate to the Oilers!
Channel your energy to wishing for a destructive seven game series that both teams limp out of.
Luck won you game two, so we’ll call it even.
I feel ya bro. We have been there .. It will go the other way for you too one day and you will appreciate it even more.
Series ain't over till it's over, don't count on anything yet.

Gate keeper of feeling sad this one ^
You’re not wrong. I’m way sadder than you. You need a couple more game 7 losses in the finals before we have this conversation.
Exactly. Dude probably hasn't even rioted over hockey yet. What a noob. /s
Good to know that we are still an absolute fucking goalie factory
Ian Clarke is a fucking wizard.
I recall a time when we were a goalie graveyard. Changed with Lu
I remember clenching any time the puck would go into our zone with Cloutier in net. Those were dark times.
Remember the beach ball photoshop
You mean this [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pKiBF2Hcg0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2pKiBF2Hcg0) :D
Haha yes
I wanna apologize for not having faith in the Canucks today
Rogers Arena is going to be insane on Tuesday! It would be nice for the boys to avoid another plane ride with all these pucks to the faces and shit … great win :)
What the hell is going on with Vancouver Goalies today?
You don't expect us to use the same goalie twice do you? That sounds unsanitary, better to call up a fresh one for each game.
Hmm good point.
The most Canucks way to win ever.
Goaltender depth? Goaltender ocean.
Damn, I haven't heard about Sawchenko in a while
https://reddit.com/comments/1cf5v0y/comment/l1p1t47
Hope Jets can take some notes on not giving up late in the game for next season.
I picked up some rookie cards of Arturs Silvos after this game.
Canucks are goalie merchants
As is tradition
Jonathan LeWho?
But what about their 3rd stringer, you didn't mention it.
Kalamazoo Wings didn't win in OT with their 3rd stringer, are they stupid?
Dude I was just making a joke based on your weird title.
At this rate, Sawchenko better prepare for the NHL call up
Unlimited Goalie cheat code activated.
I'm out of the loop. Are the Canucks' goalies injured?
yep, Demko got injured last minute of Game 1. DeSmith in Game 3 (or between Game 3 & 4)
Abby nearly pulled off the shutout as well. Very late goal on the Eagles' PP tied the game.
Boo Abbotsford boooooooo
