The extremely small sample size from early on when everyone and their dog associated with the Senators was garbage should not impact the Hogs future with us. He looked good last year, and looked good after some time off from injury in the AHL.
I mean he had to come in to relieve Murray for his first game time, got shelled in 2 games on the disastrously bad Western swing >> had to come in relief again and then was playing catch-up to find his game since then. He had 1 opportunity to play at home and has had 1 very good game just before he was injured.
I expect a great effort from him and to eliminate all those extra holes he had previously.
The team and vibe is dramatically different except for the fact we need to slay Goliath.
