YepOf course. Whole bunch of goalies with nhl talent out there. It’s the NHL consistency that makes you worth a damn.
.ag huh? Wow. I knew already that these clowns care about nothing but money and would walk over corpses to get more of it but to promote dubious offshore betting pages is bad even for the athletic clowns. Man. Like wtf
What are you talking about?
Russo (who is a good beat writer) is just sharing the current odds now that the season has started Pierre is just sharing his tweet).
Ah yeah. And of all betting pages they had to pick a dubious one with an offshore domain? And of course the athletic clowns didn't receive a single cent to post that. Of course
How naive are you? Man
Take a look at this and you'll know what the clowns are up to. Quality journalism is so yesterday if you ask the clowns. As per usual, they want a slice of the cake:

Naïve? I have seen Russo's work for close to a decade it has always been quality. LeBrun is also connected and respescted.
Betting in the US is not as simple as where you are from as you can't just bet anywhere. Not surprised you don't know this. BetAG is a decently safe place to bet. Here are the odds from MGM.
There is a decent chance that Russo and others don't have their own bookie
FYI, what you linked means nothing. Target post jobs on twitter as do other major corporations.
Stick to your complicated "fantasy" hockey" and making up when you started posting here.
His 10+ posts are all about betting and you think that Russo posting about an offshore betting page is just a coincidence? What else do you believe in? Santa clause?
I used to like Russo but his work went south as soon as he signed with the clowns. LeBrun always was a clown. Also quite funny that a guy like him is working for a company called "the athletic". They should definitely take advantage of that

Talk about making something of nothing...
Ah yeah. I totally believe that, especially after looking at their GM's twitter account. I'm actually convinced now that the athletic's didn't receive a single cent to post this.
The issue is not the goalies so much as the team D. Lehner posted a .918 with us (a very good number) and was still over 3.00GAA because he saw more rubber than <insert tasteless joke here>. It's not that I think Delia's bad or will never be anything--there's not enough time he's seen the ice to get a really good gist of things, but if a seasoned goalie posting great individual stats posts over 3 goals a night, then how would Delia or Subban fare? Not well based on what they've done already.Delia already played behind what was as bad a D as this team has had in the past years and was at around replacement level average.
Again somehow hes going to play like broken goalies in their 30s. But you know what they should do instead... sign one of these broken goalies in their 30s or maybe 40s because that's what people somehow think is a superior option for goalie success.
I don't have your confidence. I'm not seeing a better team defense on paper. I'm seeing an aged and worn Keith who, while not bad himself, needs his deployment limited and who will probably be over-relied on. I'm seeing a Seabrook who may or may not be Cullislow after surgery. I'm seeing Murph and DeHaan who are decent middle pair guys. I'm seeing a Zadorov who, while being an upgrade to Maata, is still a middle-pair guy in terms of defense. I'm also seeing one of the rookies or Boqvist being the gong show min the backend like Boqvist was last year (not the abortion that Gus was, but not good). I also don't have much confidence of a buy-in (especially if the core was shocked about the "rebuild") and I also don't have confidence that the FWDs will buy into their D assignments.It's not the same team as last year. Maybe the team defense will improve with the forward acquisitions, and Zadarov? Maybe the defense is actually healthy this season? Maybe the "leaders" on this team don't openly revolt against playing defensive systems most of the NHL plays, because they can't cry to McDonough anymore? So there's actually buy-in on defense, and the effort from the forwards isn't horseshit all season?
Keith missed 9 games.
Murphy missed 12 games.
DeHaan missed 41 games.
Gustafsson was a tire fire all season.
Seabrook played 32 games and was pathetic.
This team is going to look much different this season. While Maata is a good SAH defenseman, Zadorov is a much better skater, and no slouch defensively. He's also extremely physical, which is an element they lack.
We will see in a couple months what they look like.
Do you want them to or just think they still will bring in a vet. I do not see the point. How long do you need mentorship? Subban has been behind Flower for years, Delia shared the bench with Ward and both had time a plenty in the room with Crawford. They are all guys at the age not needing that, they aren't Carter Hart aged or Ilya Samsonov.The issue is not the goalies so much as the team D.

Bringing in a vet goalie would be for mentorship--not taking over the reins.
The ultimate issue is the team D itself...and I don't think it's improved much and it might take awhile to sort out.
Goalies are straight up voodoo and they always have been. It’s why even the surefire guys don’t get picked in the top 10.the goaltending situation is not ideal by any means but having the ability to run a 3 goalie system allows them to go with the hot hand (if one evolves) and doesn't allow the opposition to find their weakness as easy. Kind of like rookie pitchers in baseball do really well until the hitters figure them out so rotate them. Maybe one will end up with the reins from the competition.
Kutcherov done for year regular season at least
So now they’ll only beat us by 5-1 instead of 8-2.

Yeah they'll live and die by the team D and likely over 3GAA. But I think Delia may have more to show than just be worthless like people think
I'm surprised everyone has taken Columbus over Nashville. What am I missing here?
