Yes Kimmo is in tonight.figured he'd get the start. i have a feeling kimmo will be in too. lets make it 5 in a row
maybe not much worse then bryz but he can def be worse and has been for the better part of 4 years. sure he can turn it around but why chance it when you know what you have in bryz and it has been working the past 4 games. i posted this in the goaltending thread yesterday, bryz has posted a .910 sv% or better in 19 of his 35 starts this season in which his avg sv% is .937. bryz is just ridiculously streaky. i'm not counting on it but if he can get hot again maybe the flyers make the playoffs. i think the odds of mason turning it around immediately after a trade in a much higher pressure situation and being the better goalie is less then bryz getting hot again. that's not to say i wouldn't give mason a shot to prove himself in the future, just that now might not be the best time
Makes sense to let Bryz start another one. Let him play until he sucks for a game.
Don't you mean until he sucks even worse? He has been pretty bad the past few games.
If they lose today, I think Mason starts the next one. Hoping Timonen is good to go otherwise our defense looks like:
Lauridsen - Schenn
Gustafsson - Gervais
Huskins - Foster
... oh god.
Question: Who the heck are those new defensemen? Sorry if it's obvious, I've been busy...
How do you all think this is gunna go? I say 4-2 Flyers
The game notes link has info on all players if you scroll down to that section (roughly page 36+)...
