Fleury giving away playoff games should never surprise to anyone here. He's capable of making saves no one else on Earth can make, but that doesn't stop him from giving up goals that would get a peewee goalie cut from a travel hockey team.

I was with you on the first sentence, but then lol... seriously?
Bit of a stretch there.

Tocchet the coach of the Kraken? Okay.
Sucks, we coulda used him as AC when Columbus hire our PK "expert" as head coach. :(

Meh, I could tell very early Fleury and Letang were the issue and packaging them away was the key to a dynasty. More people woke up over time because that's what we do here, blame the goalie. Fleury deserved it though. But everybody ignores the one common denominator during all these years of "horrible goalies" #1 RD. If Letang was on another team and giving up breakaways/odd man rushes everybody would be saying the same thing they are saying about Fleury now. Same ole Letang blah blah blah. But nobody wants to admit it until they're gone. Only cost us Championships but hey! Fan sentiment is up. Yay!

A Fleury post turns into Letang bashing :laugh:

Introducing the first iCoach.

Seriously though hopefully he has mild symptoms at worst.

Guy is the most acrobatic goalie I have ever seen except maybe Hasek. His lateral movement is incredibly fast.

But then he goes out to try and handle the puck on a dump in or muffs and easy sharp angle shot and we are all reminded why he's not an elite goalie despite his elite athleticism.

Any updates on Lee? He just done or..?
Most recent I heard was a couple days ago, supposedly skating with reserves and looking really good. Rumor is he'll play in the finals if they are so fortunate, for whatever that's worth. Pretty amazing considering his ACL reconstruct was like three months ago.

Really would help to insert him for komarov, obviously. Hopefully he gets out there.. but yea that’d certainly be pushing it with an acl
