Brind'Amour said he's earned the start. What he didn't say was that our other two goalies have both sucked donkey/elephant balls recently.
Starter is like the premiership (where applicable): the way to earn it is to not be the latest one to suck balls, and keep telling everyone when you're being the backup that you wouldn't suck balls like that if you started.

Looks like its a solid no. Sorry for both of us...



I'm encouraged that the Canes are going back to McElhinney after the past few games. Offense has been stagnant and needs to improve. Even so, changing out the goalie gives a bit of a different feel.

Gives me hope that if nobody takes the reigns that they will eventually attempt to address the position in-season.

Starting Goalies

"(Chad) Johnson will start Tuesday vs. the Hurricanes.
Johnson stopped all five shots that he faced in relief on October 27th. Tonight will be just his second start of the season and first since October 14th. Johnson has allowed a combined six goals on 47 shots (.872 SV%) so far this season. He’ll be bust tonight against Hurricanes team that is averaging a league-best 41.8 shots per game ."

Johnson has given up 6 goals on 47 shots this year. Canes will get 40-45 shots tonight. Add in a Canes fudge factor for shooting % and presence of a backup goalie. That leaves... 1? 2 goals?
