It should be mandatory for all teams to play the game this way, or at the very least try to.

Peasant hockey is pathetic compared to this.

I still remember some people here calling him overrated when he won the Vezina.

He's clearly one of the best goalies in the league and worth his contract.
Oh, I remember as well. Yet another example of people being overly attached to “advanced stats” & using them as player ratings.

Ned cannot allow that goal

Colton looks like another unearthed gem by Tampa

Maybe it’s just being naive, but I maintain trying out guys like Kase for example.

Would allow this club to find more quality players instead of just deciding to bring in try hard Neanderthals.

Colton and Gourde make it in the Flyers development system?

In his Vezina year, he was comparable to multiple goalies with similar or better traditional stats and "fancy" stats.

None of those guys played for powerhouses, but one did lead a pretty mediocre team to a Cup that season, though has proven pretty mediocre himself and was riding something special over a 6 month stretch.

Vasi had yet to show consistency on his own; now he has two more good seasons under his belt. It is easy to say you knew he'd be great long term, when he also easily could have been a Bryzgalov or a Bobrovsky.

“Dinosaur hockey fans may think ____ is good, but my spreadsheets know better.”

This is straight garbage and you know it.

Yeesh, Carolina shut out at home in a Game 5 elimination game.

In 3 of the 5 games they scored: 1 goal, 1 goal, 0 goals. 9 goals in 5 games total.
