Our goalie arrives Tommorrow , he landed in New York today . Him and Korpi will be our tandem . Let’s be real , goalie play is way overrated in the NHL. Bob tied a shut our record shared by Steve Mason , and Pascal Leclaire . You have Mac blowing up in Carolina , Greiss for the Islanders . The same Bob that was giving up 5 and 8 goals in a loose defensive system , is now pitching shutouts , because of the guys in front of him , keeping the play out on the perimeter . Average goalies can play at an all star level , if the structure is good .That lineup would mean that Bread is forgotten but we still need a goalie.
Ok. But Bob is far better than average, earlier play this year aside.Our goalie arrives Tommorrow , he landed in New York today . Him and Korpi will be our tandem .

Skinner - Duchene - Atkinson lacks playmaking in my opinion, all three guys are shooters
He has the ability to pass, but if you look at his past history he’s a shooter just as much as he’s a passerI’m not sure where you’re getting that Duchene is a shooter, he has been dishing dimes out for us pretty regularly

To be fair, you could say that Mike Smith and David Rittich is a goalie combo for a non playoff team too. Calgary clinched the West this weekend.Merzlikins/Korpisalo are a goalie duo for a non play off team. You guys are being naive and hopeful here.
Yep, no one really knows until you know. Although color me not a fan on Elvis for his whole, "give me a real contract" gig he pulled.To be fair, you could say that Mike Smith and David Rittich is a goalie combo for a non playoff team too. Calgary clinched the West this weekend.
Mike Smith does have a lot of NHL experienceTo be fair, you could say that Mike Smith and David Rittich is a goalie combo for a non playoff team too. Calgary clinched the West this weekend.
He's also 37 and has only been in the playoffs twice in his career but enough about goalies since this is a Panarin topic. I've come to terms that there is little to no chance Panarin re-signs here and I'm OK with that. The CBJ will have money to spend in other ways for next year.Mike Smith does have a lot of NHL experience
