Yeah but I don't care about the game. I want to see him succeed in the long run. I care about his development and seeing continual improvement.

It's "easy" to make the spectacular saves with his talent. But then you lose the game over time if you make small (or in this case, massive) mistakes like that last goal. The real challenge with a #1 NHL goalie is how to maintain a high level over extended periods of time.

Took Markstrom quite a few years to get things squared away, too.

JT Miller is such a big part of this offence.

He looks like he just finished watching this game in this photo.

Demko made like 40+ saves he’s far from the problem. Back to backs against the same team suck.

Virtanen sucks
I made an unsupported prediction of a breakout year for Jake. That was yesterday. Today? Anyone who thought Jake was going to have a breakout year is an idiot. He has no hockey instinct, no urgency. I've seen guys at public skating with more hustle. Such a frustrating player.
