Hmmm...I must have been at a different game then. I could have sworn the Canes lost that game.
And you hold that against Ward? A game where he stopped 36 shots, allowing only a breakaway (shorthanded, at that) and we didn't score in the shootout?
Does anyone actually hold last night against him? A game where he stopped 34 shots, allowing only a Sharp breakaway and a Hossa backhand on a turnover right in front of the net... and we didn't score in the shootout again?
He never had a chance to win those games. It's completely unreasonable to basically say he should have shut out the Kings and only allowed one goal to the Blackhawks. No goalie in the league could live up to those expectations.
