SUNRISE, Fla. -- Roberto Luongo and Leo Luongo were no different than most brothers.No matter the game, when the Luongos went head-to-head at home in Montreal in anything from sports to cards or even board games like Monopoly, it always led to someone getting upset.Even beach soccer games with the family, Leo Luongo said. Someone would always end up crying or bleeding.Being on the same side now is considerably easier for both.Roberto Luongo is the goalie for the Florida Panthers, and Leo Luongo -- one of his younger brothers, the other is named Fabio -- is a goalie coach in the organization, now working with the teams AHL affiliate in Springfield, Massachusetts. Before Leo departed for his duties there, he spent time around his brother in an effort to help him get ready for the season that starts for Florida at home on Thursday night.Its definitely a little bit of a different dynamic, Leo Luongo said. But at the same time, its a positive thing. He knows how much effort and hard work Ive put into this craft over the last 10 years. And when we talk, he knows that I know what Im talking about.That was evident on the day that Leo Luongos preseason duties with the NHL club were ending this fall.He and his brother were the first two on the ice before practice, and wound up spending about a half-hour going over various things. Leo did all the talking, Roberto did all the nodding.The Panthers have a well-regarded goalie coach in Robb Tallas, who Roberto Luongo relied upon heavily this summer while recovering and rehabilitating after offseason hip surgery. But adding Leo Luongo this summer was viewed within the organization as a win-win -- the younger Luongo already has a strong resume from stints working in Canada and Europe, not to mention that probably no one knows the Florida netminder better.You play for yourself, Roberto Luongo said. But you play for your brothers as well.At 37, Roberto Luongo knows the window of opportunity for his Stanley Cup hopes are running out. Hes still an elite goalie and had the numbers to match last season, with a 2.35 goals-against average and a .922 save percentage -- both better than his career norms.The Panthers rode him to the Atlantic Division title last season, that banner set to be unveiled before Thursdays opener against New Jersey. Theres still no Stanley Cup banner swaying from the rafters of the Panthers home arena, and theres no Cup ring on Luongos hand, either.To say theres urgency to change that is an understatement.My windows not as big as the younger guys, Roberto Luongo said. Weve got to make it happen soon.Leo Luongo has no doubt that his brother can get that ultimate goal.The Panthers have Jaromir Jagr and a talented young core around him, though will be without left wing Jonathan Huberdeau and center Nick Bjugstad when the season opens because of injuries in the preseason. Bjugstad has a broken hand and is expected to miss about a month; Huberdeau is out with a lower-body injury and the Panthers are bracing for him to be gone until mid-January at the earliest.So the offense will miss a couple of key pieces.But if Roberto Luongo is as good as his brother expects, the Panthers should be fine.When he got traded everybody thought he would just ride off into the sunset and be tucked away in Florida and he wouldnt care about hockey anymore, Leo Luongo said. That really bothered him. I think the fact that hes here, and that he sees the change in direction that the organization has taken, it for sure has motivated him even more.Martin Brodeur Jersey . He was followed closely by David Clarkson, donning red, seconds later. Clarksons actions one night earlier, leaping off the bench in defence of Kessel during a pre-season game against the Buffalo Sabres, will cost him the first 10 games of the regular season. Taylor Hall Jersey . Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview. "We just dont know what the results from Torino will be," Budgett said. http://www.devilssale.com/authentic-sami-vatanen-devils-jersey/ . James, who turned 29 on Monday, injured his groin Friday during the Heats overtime loss at Sacramento. He sat out the following game, a 108-107 win Saturday in Portland, before coming back to help send the Nuggets to their seventh consecutive loss. Andy Greene Jersey . On Mar. 16, coming off a "fight of the year" performance at UFC 154 the previous November, St-Pierre faced Nick Diaz at UFC 158 in what would be his eighth defence of the welterweight title. Using his superior athleticism, St-Pierre cruised to a five round, unanimous decision victory setting up a much-anticipated title defence against number one contender Johny Hendricks. Travis Zajac Devils Jersey .J. Jefferson has been charged with assaulting his girlfriend.Conor McGregor backed up his trash talk and?became the first fighter in mixed martial arts history to hold multiple UFC titles at the same time by knocking Eddie Alvarez out at the 3:04 mark of the second round to become the lightweight champion at UFC 205 on Saturday at Madison Square Garden. McGregor is currently the featherweight champion.dddddddddddd. The swift main event had several UFC fighters, professional athletes, musicians and celebrities chiming in on Twitter. ' ' '
