Roberto Luongo fills out 'dream golf foursome' with past rivals Byfuglien, Marchand and Thomas

Florida Panthers goaltender Roberto Luongo is nothing if not a master of self-deprecation (also an elite goalie, but whatever). 

On Friday, the Vancouver Sun published an interview with Roberto Luongo in which the Panthers puck-stopper and recreational golfer fielded questions from golf and Vancouver Canucks beat writer Brad Ziemer. The catch, really, is that the questions are exclusively about golf.

So the questions had to be about golf, but that doesn't mean the answers had to be. For example, Luongo was asked to pick a "dream foursome" to golf with. The goaltender rather cheekily selected a coterie of notable old on-ice rivals including "human eclipse" Dustin Byfuglien, Brad "ring kisser" Marchand, and Tim "tire pump" Thomas. 

Luongo really doesn't seem to have taken that question very seriously.
