Fantasy penalty shot: Will you live to see tomorrow?

[DownIsTheNewUp]

Hockey reference lists 21 players that share my birthday, none even close to PPG. Strangely enough only one of those players even has a positive +/-

They'll have to shoot against Dominik Hasek.

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Yes but a save % of 40%??? The worst goalie in the NHL last year had a save % higher than 80%.
A 40% save % means that Dryden would only stop 4 out of every 10 shots faced. Impossible.

He played during the 1970s, where goalies were absolute garbage compared to those today.

If he were teleported from 1973 to 2019s NHL, he would be totally embarrassed.

Okaaayyyy.
Obviously you're someone who never watched him play so I'm not going to waste a single iota of my time trying to convince you of Ken Dryden's greatness.

 

[Cowumbus]

Stamkos is scoring on Crawford without a doubt.

 

[snowkiddin]

I graduated high school in 2005, so I win unless Stefan is the one taking the shot

I love you for this. Made my day.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

Patrick Marleau (career shootout/PS percentage around ~30) vs Crawford (Shootout save percentage is .719, can’t find his penalty shots)

My odds aren’t great

 

[Raspewtin]

Tomas Sandstrom v.s. Jonathan Quick

I might make it

 

[PatrikBerglund]

I have seen him and other top-70s goalies play, yes.

He would get lit up like a Christmas tree in today's game.

Are these blinders comfortable ?

Are you seriously trying to make a case for 70s goaltenders standing a snowball's chance in hell, if they played in 2019s NHL!?

 

[Sensinitis]

Mitch Marner vs Tim Thomas... tough call.

 

[Godzilla]

Hmmmm...

Retired player would be Doug Gilmour
Current player is Michael Sergachev

Goalie was Grant Fuhr.

So Im going Gilmour vs Fuhr.

I think I live to see tomorrow.

Yes.

It's useless to try to explain why to you...

 

[Sasso09]

Gostisbehere vs Broduer... I don't like any player vs Marty.

DEAD

 

[Taluss]

Sedins vs Fleury. I think I'm done for

 

[Tryblot]

Are you saying 70s goalie with 70s equipment and style against players today with todays sticks? Or are you saying every goalie from then even if given todays equipment and training would still get embarrassed?

 

[SladeWilson23]

I graduated high school in 2005. Now what?

 

[Primary Assist]

Joe Mullen vs Chris Osgood. I'm not feeling so bad about that one.

 

[SotasicA]

What if the best hockey player born on my birthday is a goalie?

Or a stay at home d-man.

Hope your will is in safe hands...
