You keep on talking about Cory and Keith, when I didn't even mention any of them... are you okay bud?
Nice deflection try, but you kind of did. Without actually mentioning names.
''There's no goaltender, it could be Prime Marty, Hasek , Roy that would succeed with that kind of ****ty defensive structure.''
The only goaltenders that aren't suceeding in this kind of ''Shitty defensive structure'' so far, are Keith Kinkaid and Cory Schneider.
That doesn't mean Blackwood will continue to, but when you break it down, why would anybody be surprised that Kinkaid and Schneider aren't succeeding on this team? One guy has been a backup for more of his career than not and has been asked to play way more games this year because of the other guy, who I'll get to next. And that other guy has been in a drastic decline for 2 years, unlike any elite goalie I've seen in decades and looks to have bottomed out, possibly for good, due to hip problems.
By the way, the same shit was said about Marty at the end. ''No goalie would be good here with this defense. Look at all the minutes Bryce Salvador plays here!''. Then we got a goalie that was and then it changed to ''Oh no you don't! He's not better than Marty! He doesn't win like Marty still does!''.
One other note. Dominik Hasek played for some of the worst teams to consistently make the playoffs. They even missed the playoffs one of those years, where he had the best save percentage in the league and also led the league in losses. There ain't no way in hell the defense or this structure is worse than some of those mid to late 90's Sabres teams. You could have at least said ''There's no way (insert pretty good modern day goalie) would succeed with that kind of shitty defensive structure'' rather than hyperbolizing your point by bringing up 3 HOF goalies, the best of that era, one of which who won Vezina's and constantly carried mediocre or bad teams to the playoffs. At least Haak used Bobrovsky or Vasilevskiy.
