The amount of people who think a goalie fixes everything are much less than your making it seem, but this is how you like to argue. You take a small group of people who have an opinion, blow it out of proportion, then sit back and act like the voice of reason for having the courage to go against the majority.But this is not an accurate portrayal of the dichotomy. From my observations almost all of us that are extremely critical of this D also recognize goaltending is not very good.
There are several posters who routinely imply that our defense doesn’t have significant problems and simply getting a better goaltender fixes the GA issue enough for the D to not be a concern. I’m sorry but this take is wildly wrong.
I don't think asking a league average goalie to not be a useless sack of shit that gives up every dangerous chance he faces is unreasonable. I also don't think asking the defense to tighten shit up is unreasonable either. Both need to be better, and I think a majority of this place would agree. But carry on...
