Team organizes a family skate for Christmas. Bednar bag skates the guys to death. Maybe then they'll start the game on time.This team needs a good old fashioned Sacco bag skate .
What makes him better than average? There’s never been consistency with him. His best year came in a contract year and up until the last few weeks, it looked like he was going to follow it up again in another contract year. He’s not a top 10 goalie and is just a middle of the road guy. Hence...average.That was kind of rude thing to say by me but calling Varly average goalie at best is nonsense.
I think the biggest thing with Varly is that he's got such great athleticism, he's physically gifted, that the fact that he isn't always a top goalie is frustrating because you see what is there.
I see a lot of the same athleticism in Francouz.

There’s no doubt he can steal games but when you never know what Varly you’re going to get year to year, how much does that matter?
A lot of posters claim that Varly is inconsistent.
NHL.com - Stats
There are stats summarized from season 11-12 to this date. Varly has save percentage of 91,6% while playing for Avs. Rinne, Quick and Vasilevsky have 91,8% in the same time span. Bobrovsky and Lundqvist have save percentage of 92,0% and Holtby and Price have save percentage of 91,9% in the same time span.
Varly's save percentage isn't as bad as people think it is and considering all the injuries and that he hasn't had full time goalie coach with Avs his numbers are quite respectable. None of those goalies I mentioned hasn't had to endure Nate Guenin pointing and blocking view from a goalie for couple of seasons. All the goalies mentioned above have had decent defensive system and corps in front of them. Varly has been asked to stand on his head way too many times and he has given us chance to win games where Avs should have been blown out badly.
U guys should seriously give some credit to Varly and try to remember what Avs had in the net after Roy retired. Sorry if there is some spelling errors because I had to write this on my phone.
