Why would you throw up when Bedard is traded to Minnesota?

Starting to think the goalies were never the issue, overall team defense was.

Shhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!

Starting to think the goalies were never the issue, overall team defense was.

I thought it was that for a long time actually. It's why I was never overly harsh on the goalies

It was definitely both.

 

[TaLoN]

It was definitely both.

It's always both to some degree, but the team defense put the goalies in bad position, which then will erode their confidence in general.

Now they're being put in good position, which is also helping their confidence thus fewer soft goals etc.

 

[NHL1674]

I'm all for trying to get it to Rossi, but as long as it doesn't cost us a goal.

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

It’s fun starting to see Rossi think the way 97 and 36 do

 

[Sweetnut]

Flower flashing the leather

 

[NHL1674]

Keep it together.

 

[TaLoN]

Flower flashing the leather

I'd be impressed, if he didn't also flash the leather on very pedestrian saves too

 

[Digitalbooya]

Gave up a goal on the PK. Disgusting.

No longer perfect

 

[NHL1674]

Really, Goli.

 

[Sweetnut]

Radish would fit in perfectly here, with bacon and broccoli already on the team.

 

[NHL1674]

Nice to see both goalies resurfacing a bit.

 

[Soldier13Fox]

Good win. Rossi couldn't get the third, bust! Kidding of course. His turnaround this year has been nothing short of fantastic, happy for the kid.

 

[NHL1674]

 

[The Enemy Within]

Quite the turnaround boys. I can't wait to see if it continues.

 

[Sweetnut]

Great to get a 3-streak going before the trip out west.
The boys played well, all four lines. Liking Hynes TOI management so far, Ek getting the most minutes, 2 min more than the next guy (Kap)

Gustavsson in particular was poor positioning on his part. He was playing way to deep in his net, and getting skewered.

He fixed that a handful of games before Deano go canned. Scoring just didn't come.

 

[Webster]

I don't think Hynes expected this, 3 first games - 3 wins. A totally different team, it must feel like a punch in the face for Evason, not to mention Woods.

Now let's see what our new team is made of on this Canada trip.
