So this is what I'll say about the goaler situation. First and foremost, if we had Grubs in we probably would've won this game as better players reduces the amount of mistakes end up in the back of the net. However, if Johansson played the first game against Arizona I reckoned that he would've won that instead of this one. Avs were poor and when you have an iffy goaltender back there, you want to eliminate your mistakes (even if that means to play boring hockey) than actually exacerbate them as the Avs did all night long.
That was Johansson's first shootout game in the NHL so I would just forget about that as a fan and player since he obviously has work to do in that regard. Letting your first goal on your first shot when it was a floater from the point is harsh for the club from Jojo, but also not having a shot on for the first ten-ish minutes of the game isn't exactly helping the situation either. We've seen every goaler let in those floaters including Hasek, but when you're a bit struggling you need to stop that to gain some confidence IMHO. The second one was just bad coverage from Makar and Landeskog so definitely would not be any goaler's fault there.
Jonas did rebound nicely and I believe stopped the remaining 28 out of 30 shots which is something Miska even had a hard time with. So even when you lot will throw him to the fire, there is some potential there with him as depth backup when Francouz eventual comes back into the mix (and hopefully this season). However, of all the goals allowed you gotta stop the fourth one, I thought for me that was the most brutal and momentum changing for the game. That goal sort of highlights the fact that he's a bit clumsy in his movements and might've not grown into his frame yet on a footwork perspective. Those type of aspects of the game are definitely teachable with practice, but he also has to adjust for being bigger and compensate for that (or he's going to be in the SHL two seasons from now).
Even with all that said, Avs could've gotten him the win if they would've scored on the damn PP in the extra OT and you can blame all the star players for missing their one-timers or getting it blocked numerously. I told my friend that I would've loved to see Girard out there instead of Makar for a situation like this is because D'artagnan moves puck much more than Makar does and doesn't mind making risky plays. I don't exactly remember who wrote it, but I think it was
@Northern Avs Fan mentioning that Cale is way to stagnate and stationary on the PP. That is absolutely true and it really and I mean really slow down the PP movement compared to when Barrie was up there. Hell, I would've preferred Toews with Girard alongside Rantanen and MacKinnon, but Bednar is going to stick with his guns. Hill is the type of goaler I hope Avs would've got (or someone Johansson can hopefully develop into), but no way was Coyotes giving him up considering the injury lists with Raanta and Kuemp.
