..and this is why having 3 goalies was a good idea.

Turns out we needed 4.

In Detroit's case, and only due to extreme bad luck. It is otherwise not a good idea. The other 31 teams in the NHL preferring to have only 2 goalies is not an insignificant data point.

1 injured goalie is not uncommon. 2 is rare but not ”extreme”. Definitely not 31 teams rolling just 2 either.

@Bench get in there!

Really interested to see how Cossa handles this in GR. He's been on a pretty consistent 1 off 1 on rotation and I would assume his workload is going to go up.

If they didn't want me at their Howard they don't deserve me at their Hutchinson.

The extreme rarity is 2 goalies getting injured within 2 days of each other and both being longer-term.

At least as of about a week ago, the only teams with 3 goalies were Montreal, who have reportedly been looking to trade one, and Detroit, who, well, we all know what's going on in Detroit.

3 goalies is no bueno, and it only really happens for short periods at the beginning of the season when things are still being sorted out (i.e. a young guy getting his shot), or under extreme circumstances like with Montreal and Detroit.

Sounds like the perfect guy to feed a shit sandwich to

Turns out we've yet to find even 1.

 

[norrisnick]

I don't get all this Lyon is out long term stuff. Watch his own media availability from yesterday. He got dinged up and scared, but by his account he's good to go. Coach being all "he's out least until after the break" is bizarre.

 

[Frk It]

Bring back the prodigal son Filip Larsson... or sign some rando from the KHL.

Maybe Bernier is bored and healed up and wants to lace them up again?

Maybe they found something after that?

Just speculation.

Lalonde speak for "out until after Christmas" means "We aren't going to play him until after Christmas".

I'd like to know whose Cheerios Lyon pissed in for this org to sign him and treat him like this.

Which isn't much different than his career NHL stats

2.93 GAA
0.902 SV%
57-61-18

Up until 3 games ago, Husso's SV% was below .890, and worse than Reimer and Hutch's career average. They just need to score 4 or more goals every game like they did early season, lol.

 

[RedHawkDown]

Why do they hate Lyon ?

Came here to post this too. Signing a guy with a .895 SV% in the AHL, times are very tough lol

 

[SantosHalper]

Hutch sure is ugly

 

[Bench]

Nobody hates him. He got injured mid game and is out until at least until after the holiday break.

Judging from the acquisitions of Holl and Petry and the overplaying of Husso, it's pretty clear that Yzerman/Lalonde didn't expect for the team to overachieve to the level they did earlier this year. I suspect Yzerman's intent this season was still to pick in the top 10 and continue building. Having to rely on Reimer and a barely-AHL goalie just puts them back to the original plan.

Did he? Per Lyon he got scared mid game and was freaking out until he saw the Philly doctors late in the game. He feels fine and wants to go.

Questions arise because it took a back to back and a goalie leaving the continent to get his first game a month and a half into the season and now he says he feels fine, but coach says he's out til after the break. Why the disconnect there?

He also got yanked after the second period of the Ottawa game, which I think was the first time Lalonde has changed goalies in a season in which our other goalie allowed 4+ goals every game. Someone in the org definitely has an issue with Lyon.
