So the chicken came first. Always wondered on that one.

The good, the bad and .. yeah

 

[Igright]

Savard couldn't cope with the puck, and after the 3rd goal the team couldn't concentrate and let the 4th goal in.

In all seriousness, what do we do next year if Bob is healthy? Korps is proving everyday he belongs in the NHL, but do we sit him behind Bob or send him back the LEM's for playing time?

PROTEIN! (exclaimed all of the people at The Arnold)

You play Bob less and get Korpi 30 or so games (unless he proves to be the better goalie)

If I were better at Photoshop, I'd replace the chicken with MacEilhinney

Absolutely! Don't think Bob can start a lot of consecutive games; can't hold up, IMO

This is about to get real folks. When BOB is declared healthy, Korps is on the next bus to LEM. The tank will be back on. Mark it down!!!

 

[DJA]

zero chance in hell that was a goal.

 

[DJA]

get Cmac on a ****ing bus to Cleveland.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Philly may score a touchdown tonight at this pace

we have NO life

Touchdown!

 

[NotWendell]

If we really want to tank and have a better shot at the #1 pick, I think we just figured out who we need to play.

 

[VABUCK]

Cleveland doesn't want him!

 

[vertigo1061]

Curtis is so bad it's almost funny

Nothing for US to do, Torts let it be known this week that the plan is for Bob to return back to the mix, and Korpi will mix in consistently to keep bob fresh, and hopefully healthy. Sure will be interesting though, and I won't be surprised if Korpi beats Bob out eventually. I know some will chalk it up to out improved defense, etc, but in my mind Korpi is much stronger mentally than Bob , and much more consistent. He still needs to prove it long term, but no way u send him back to Ahl, when he's not remotely struggling at nhl level. Hopefully Korpi keeps improving, and we can ship Bobs huge cap hit to Edmonton

You send him to LEM ala how Detroit handled Petr Mrazek. When Bob has his annual December injury, you play Korpisalo as a #1.

Oh, PP after all.

You might be right, only for the fact that they will want to let Korpi play in the playoffs. As for next year, not a chance

I remember years ago a game against the Kings at Nationwide when we were down 5-0 at the end of the first. The loudest applause of the night came when the announcer said there was one minute to play...in the first.

That and I can't see them carrying three goalies.

Yep, I remember; I was there
