He's preparing for a job interview, I'll sub in.

Victoryyyy!

Proud of Dubnyk... I was one if his first supporters in the Arizona board when we signed him. Always liked his game. Hopefully he pans out in Minny.

 

[W75]

It felt so good that I fell asleep..

He obviously faced buffalo and didn't face many shots, but he certainly looked both big and calm in net and also displayed some puck skills.


I must say I'm a little bit more optimistic than I was when I heard about this move.

This is about where I'm at with it.

h-h-h-how could a m-m-m-mod not know that? my world view is shaken.

Yeah, I dunno. The higher ups might be asking me to turn in my badge and gun.

man the buffalo fans really paid to see that show? i'd want my money back. we all looked like allstars last night. we'll see how long that lasts.

 

[Engebretson]

Yeah, I'm on board with a lot of the opinions that Dubnyk played well last night despite playing the Sabres and having shots against limited. Let's also not forget that he had to pack up all his gear, head to Buffalo and then start on the road for a team he's never played with in about 24 hours.

I think most importantly, the team looked more confident playing in front of him. When we can move past that mental barrier that we had when Kuemper/Backstrom was in goal, we can start seeing the team that we saw at the beginning of the season. We're still not back to where we need to be, but it's a good start.

Oh man, you get a gun with that gig?

Apparently a red eye too...since as Yeo put it on the radio there aren't a lot of flights going from Arizona TO Buffalo this time of year.

What's a red eye? I thought it was just a figure of speech for a long flight, as in not getting sleep = red eyes.

Mmm... Step into my office.

Heh..

Kinda. It's an overnight flight. The term red eye still comes from having red eyes due to not enough sleep, though.

I like his 28 years of age. He's the perfect age... old enough to have seen it all but young enough so his skills and body are still strong.

I know it's only one game but I was very impressed. I was also noticing how many Arizona fans were praising him after the trade transpired. They know best, they saw him up close and personal.

I am also not throwing in the towel this season just yet. We lost 6 in a row, but with our talent we can turn it around and win 6 in a row. You never know. There's plenty of games left, we just have to take it one game at a time, hopefully go on a run and see what happens.

Ahh, gotcha.
