The Florida Panthers did not make the playoffs this year, so that means Roberto Luongo gets to spend more time with his family. That also means that, instead of manning the pipes in Stanley Cup postseason games, Luongo’s biggest challenge involves untangling his young daughter’s Easter necklaces.
The goaltender took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon to document his struggles with a giant tangled mess that his daughter asked him to solve. The battle has now raged on for over an hour, and it doesn’t seem to be going well.
A timeline:

So far I think I've made some progress or also just created more knots. Not sure yet. #livetweetingthegreatuntangle

You can do it, Bobby Lu…I believe in you.
