20-4-2: In his last 28 regular-season games with the Canes, James Reimer has posted a 20-4-2 record with a 2.71 goals-against average, .911 save percentage and three shutouts.

He's also...

8-2-0 this season with 3.08 goals against and a .896 save percentage. 0 shutouts.

Actually has a better win percentage than in their time frame. But, everything else looks worse. Everybody hates on Ned despite Optimus having worse numbers.

Statistically ya, if his sample size was 10 games instead of 4 though I think the stats would look a lot different.

Are they ever gonna call a high stick on Tampa Bay?

Said it after game 2, Tampa is treating this like a playoff series. They are playing like they know the refs have already swallowed their whistles. In a war of attrition the more physical team wins in the end.

Reimers numbers look virtually identical through his first 4 starts...

3-1-0

3.25 gaa

.899 sv%

Ned's first 4 for comparison...

2-2-0

2.00 gaa

.922 sv%

Reimer looks more comfortable out there. But, he should, he's a 10 year vet.

Ned looks nervous or unsure at times and that scares a lot of fans. In the playoffs, that can bleed into your teammates as well.

I think he will settle down eventually. But, his numbers shows he belongs in the big leagues.

I actually don't think I can recall Ned really looking nervous. He seems to be one of those perpetually calm guys. The scariest part about him is he is pretty confident in his puck handling and he does take some more chances that none of our other goalies would.

      The Panthers have an effort problem

      By CPcavedweller · Posted

      To me, this seems like they feel they aren't going to be competitive. I can't help but go back to Bryce. Good guy, but he doesn't inspire people to give it their all. He isn't a "leader" that people look to. There is no Smith, Delhomme, Kuechly, Cam, etc. coming in that door.  It has to be Bryce, but biologically speaking, how often is the shortest man in the room going to command the kind of respect that will drive people? It just isn't. That isn't how we are wired. That isn't how any living animal on Earth today is wired.  I just follow the science guys.

      Vick's issue with Reid was that he couldn't take a hit, and he wouldn't go down. Otherwise he was pretty good much of the time.  Mahomes has a system that works. Mahomes doesn't become Mahomes elsewhere because not everyone can extract 125% of the ability of a specific player like Reid can. Kevin O'Connell is beginning to look like he has that ability as well but I'll need to see how he does with his Redshirt Freshman.  I also wonder how much of their playoff issue last year was related to the offense as a whole and not just Darnold. Fans don't really dive into the "why" things happen, they just see the what and complain about it.
