Varlamov is 3 years older than Raanta, I believe.

But you're right- 2 debacle games with a combined total of 13 goals allowed on 29 shots.

That should only happen to a really bad team once a year maybe.

This should be a full panic in our FO.

These are not the guys. That isn't a reactionary take.

They are playing historically bad. It isn't like Kochetkov or Raanta has a history of being world beaters. At best they can get hot in streaks.

So after a night of sleep and cooling off…happy we got a point. That building shook with the buzzer beater to go to OT. But with that being said. This team has three major problems that a killing us. 
 

1.  Goalie. We don’t have one. 15 shots 8 goals and a week later. 15 shots 5 goals. 
 

2. PP. it’s bad again. Without Tony D, it stinks. And we are going up shortys at a strange clip this year. 
 

3.  This one is odd but true. PK. Our PK is not good. We are giving up too many power play goals. What is it like 6 in the last 4 games?

 

I really believe you have players like necas or a few others that don’t fit this team. However….good teams trying to win a cup or usually buyers or when they trade it, it’s for a true need. 
 

If we can just get average to above average goalie play…we can win and close the gap on the Rangers.

Goaltending is a give alarm fire. The loss of Freddie was devastating

Ya Freddie kept us level. This is why I really wish we would have given Halak at least a game or two to see if he’s any better than what we have. The NHL has figured our goalies out.

      Mnf uniform combo White uni. Black helmet & socks

      By strato · Posted

      I think those silver helmets look great. The logo is fairly primitive looking but I understand why it is used.  The dayglo type blue top/bottom, I think looks like a cartoon. IOW not good. White on white is a classic look, no issue. Black on black I can take but prefer black pants with a blue top. Or white pants with the blue top.  That is about as much fashion content as I am comfortable posting. Maybe go to E or Bravo for this stuff.

      Remember when the NFC South was the toughest division (circa 2002-2006 when every NFC Championship game featured one of the four of us?)

      How many Qbs can you name better than Bryce Young?

      By strato · Posted

      You are a fair point argument guy, but I disagree that Bryce got us out of that Miami hole. You know who Rico Dowdle is, right?  Just a small quibble.    IMO when I look at him and see his output in a typical game I imagine what he did that a replacement level guy wouldn’t or couldn’t have done.  And I have trouble seeing much difference.  So assuming they can’t replace him with someone’s backup, not everybody’s but there are guys sitting, assuming they can’t replace him for probably less money would potentially be an erroneous assumption.    But based more on his relationship with the team and the guys making the decisions, the question of will they? I tend to see them sticking with him.  I never wanted him at all. But after all the misery of the Bryce era so far, I don’t have a problem with waiting until the season is complete to decide. Bring it on, I can take it.  So I am not ranting that he needs to go, although I have certainly done that and can’t say he has changed my mind to this point.  He still could.  We’ll see.
