God man what if Boudreau is next. That could be bad, the guy does not appear all that healthy.

This just keeps reminding me how some “you” thought it would be fine to trade halak and live with what we have as a back up. Think we still live in a Covid world and that’s a huge risk. We are now opening the door to our 5th string or even a Zamboni driver. Fair to say you need some depth at this position.

It’s fine when you are bottom feeding like us.

The way I see it is, if you are bad it doesn’t matter. Back up goalie just needs to be serviceable. Don’t need to win really.

If you are good , you are fine with going say Vasilevsky and brian Elliot . Or jarry and domingue etc. like Tampa and pens are doing just fine with low priced league min back ups.

If we were legit no halak is fine and if we suck no halak is fine. Don’t buy into the dim philosophy. He’s thankfully gone.

How can the NHL postpone games last month with a handful of guys out.
Meanwhile we have top 3 forwards out, on our 5th goalie and have no assistant coaches but the game will go on. What a joke.

Its looking like almost all the goaltenders are having issues relating to covid..Personally, I think they should just cancel the game, its a disservice to the paying customer...a mockery, at a certain point.

Panthers were playing their 3rd game in 4 nights on a B2B..Not so with the Blues, they steamrolled the Kraken on Friday, and this game should be an easy lay up.

If they don't win by 5 I will completely disregard them as a cup contender.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Godspeed, DiPietro.



Also hope this guy doesn’t have to hop in. No injuries, please!

 

[rypper]

Can't wait for lots of nervous close ups of Rylan Toth on the bench!

 

[wonton15]

I kind of want to see Toth come in. No ill will towards Dipietro

Welp, I guess I’m putting another $100 against us!

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Poor DiPietro has had two career appearances, both in blowouts / lousy circumstances.

Hope the team can dig deep again to give him some defensive support.

 

[Flik]

This might be a must watch if only for the pathetic comedy factor.

Not cancelling games under these kinds of circumstances is strange, but I guess for the NHL, the (clown)show must go on.

The Canucks might have had a leg to stand on if they hadn't postponed games with a fully healthy roster for financial reasons.

As long as the league is still testing asymptomatic players they deserve messes like this.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Honest question… when can we get horvat/garland/halak back?

 

[Kryten]

[Vector]

The reason the last two games haven’t postponed is because the owner chose to postpone games when the roster was healthy but capacity was at 50% and the NHL is basically saying “you got greedy”.

On the plus side, his salary in the AHL is just $70,000 and he's probably made at least like $30,000 for whatever amount of time he's been on the NHL roster. I don't know how the Taxi squad thing works, but hey. That's a decent New Year's bonus.

38H ago, after almost losing $100

I am never betting on sports again

Duality of man

 

[Diversification]

Chris Levesque should reach out to Toth with some words of encouragement and some advice.

"No matter how itchy your nose gets, do not scratch it. Resist the urge. That camera will be on you non stop and you don't want to look like you're picking your nose on tv."

"Also bring lots of gum."

Husso starting for the Blues. That Binnington extension is looking very bad and this is the first season.

why the hell would Toth be nervous. 0 expectations
