Not a big believer in advanced stats like expected goals but they're backing up the fact that we've really come into our own in February as we make our final push. A nice change after what we've seen in our last two seasons

Not sure I agree with him starting tomorrow, Talbot's coming off a shutout and Rittich hasn't won a home game since Dec 12th against the Leafs.

I think Ward is trying to get him comfortable on home ice heading into the playoffs, he's probably our playoff starter undoubtedly. Not 100% sure what Ward's game plan is though.

Ward has no real plan....

Rittich playing instead of Talbot after Talbot gets a shutout.

Our coaching is literally too stupid that I can't believe that it is real.

Someone on CP posted Rittich's last 5 home starts:

Feb 15 Vs. CHI: 4GA on 15 Shots, Pulled, .733 S%
Feb 4 Vs. SJS: 3GA on 26 Shots, Loss, .885 S%
Feb 1 Vs. EDM: 6GA on 28 Shots, Pulled, .786 S%
Dec 31 Vs. CHI: 4GA on 32 Shots, Loss, .875 S%
Dec 29 Vs. VAN: 3GA on 7 Shots, Pulled, .571 S%

Hasn't won on home ice since December 12th. So obviously let's start him over the guy who just posted a shut out.


Also, Hamonic coming back just in time to destroy the second pairing and Hanifin for the playoffs. f***ing awesome.

I'm a :eek::eek::eek::eek: hair away from cheering for the Avalanche in the playoffs, this shit is getting too f***ing stupid for me to care.

Here is a good article by Kristen Anderson about game 7 of 2004.


“Maybe I’m completely offside (in saying this),” Martin Gelinas said. “But it would be like you’re getting a divorce and then you’re going to watch your wedding video.

Yeah. That's pretty much how I feel too, lol.
