Prospect Info: 2018-19 Binghamton Devils and ECHL talk part II

[Devils Dominion]

It’s more credible if you acknowledge that is your opinion rather than stating it as if it was an axiomatic fact.

Of course it's my opinion.
I said it. I didn't quote it.

Your posts are too negative.

I think your posts tend to be too negative.

I leave it to you to decide which is more reasoned and which will be more favorably received when trying to make a point.

He’s not wrong. Cam was never really a prospect anyway

Should've just kept Appleby

Should've just kept Appleby

Thought they were going to try and groom him as a potential backup...I was surprised they just cut ties

Yeah and people were saying the Devils should move on from Blackwood and here we are.

Me too.

 

[Triumph]

Appelby is a lifetime .900 AHL goaltender. A team should be able to find that anywhere, though admittedly the Devils have struggled at this over the last few years.

Back luck for Devils goalies at all levels this year.

 

[My3Sons]

Thanks for that heads up. Hope he heals quickly.

Johnson has no NHL potential

Is that a fact? How many fans like yourself said the same thing about Big Mac?

From what I have seen this season, I tend to agree with DD. I have seen very, very little that suggests Johnson will ever be a decent NHL goalie. He has had a few good games, but he gives up weak goals frequently and has no really outstanding strength. Also, he somehow looks way smaller than he is, if that makes sense. Leaves the net wide open because he gets out of position frequently. His numbers don't lie, but are a reflection of his actual play. Why sugarcoat it?

 

[bodda]

Agreed. He has been a major dissapointment and has single handedly lost them a lot of games the this season. I mean, anything could happen, but the chance of him turning into a NHL goalie is about 0.01%.

 

[mmazz22]

From the games I have seen of Johnson he is brutal. But every goalie has looked brutal here the last two seasons so maybe its the team in front of them that makes them look brutal?

Funny how nightsquad, who doesn't watch Bing games, and those who liked his post, who also don't watch Bing games, disagree with people like yourself , who watches Bing games.

How many of Blackwood's games in Bingo did you watch to come to the conclusion that he was a bust a few months back?

This is the problem. The defense down here is so bad that it's really hard to get a read on goalies.

With that being sad, Johnson has looked pretty awful this season. So many of the goals he lets in have no business finding the back of the net.

Personally, I've always thought he just benefitted from playing behind a stacked UND team in college and he isn't as good as his NCAA numbers showed. Now he's just getting picked apart in the AHL.

Again, just my opinion as somebody who has watched all but one of his starts this year. I'm in no way an expert and I've been wrong before, but he doesn't look very good at all.

 

[Emperoreddy]

Blackwood was able to look decent in net in front of this team, so it really might just be that Cam sucks.

He's not good

His college #'s, aside for one season, weren't even that good.

 

[OmNomNom]

as they say at games, anything can happen in new jersey

even a goalie who's 1.5 years older than macblack can suddenly blossom into a functioning NHL goalie

did you know, the year cam johnson went 24-4, UND had boeser, caggiula, schmaltz, and stecher? the subsequent year, even boeser's #s dipped, as they lost caggiula, schmaltz, stecher, and the following year (when boeser left), their top scorer was a d-man (wolanin). their G/GP went from a 3.68 to a 3.33 to a 3.00
