I watch every game and Igor has some gems this year. There will be times when the other goalie does more. I have seen many many games where backups stand on their heads against us. We have been spoiled with great goaltending throughout the years and it is noticeable when we don’t get it. Igor gets left out to dry a lot by our D. He also lets in softies like any goalie. I don’t think he stinks. I think he is very good and will get better. He made some good saves tonight but it wasn’t enough.
Sure, but how I think it's a bit too much to ask Igor to start scoring for us. Let's face it, you rarely win hockey games 1-0. These are football (soccer) numbers. If you only score 1 goal, saying the goalie didn't pull his weight is just wrong IMO. Especially in the regular season, I might get it in the playoffs.

The point was you used the vaccine as an excuse.
I used it as a contributing factor. It's not an excuse. This team has done this for 2 years. They dominate when teams lie down, NYR is unable to usually dictate games and force their will on a team. They are reactive to what the other team gives them

this is one of my take aways with Quinn as well. The strategic oneuppance is not at an NHL level with Quinn.

Hopefully this isn't what we see vs the Isles, though i am bracing for it
They might feel better by Sunday. These two games were recipe for disaster. Georgiev will have to steal one most likely if he's not sleepwalking like most the guys were tonight
