While everyone is crying over one bad play from Key, I'm over here staring at Freddie's ~.870 save % for the season.

Imma pray for Pyotr's quick recovery, yall do yall...

Freddie was a big reason it wasn’t worse. I’m more concerned about these repeated breakaways for other teams.  Zilla is playing well.

🤣🤣 more than one bad play, although we are missing two very important defensemen and having Miller as your top D man is.... less than ideal. 

 

Also Freddie's save percentage is .894 % would be .91 without Miller's own goal.

The blue line is a mess not collectively, but having to shuffle pieces just to get 3 D lines on the ice while playing three perennial contenders in 3 consecutive games without a break, there's not a lot of room for error.  Last night, there was literally not a single defensive pairing that had ever skated together before, either in the preseason or so far this season.

OMG after a night of sleep your right! If it wasn't for that one bad play by Miller, Freddie would be having his 3rd worst season of his career, rather than by far the worst.

Freddie is the same age as Raanta. And, we all saw how quickly the wheels fell off at the end for him. Injuries and time come for us all.

That is precisely why the team has been practically begging Kucci to step up and take the net from him. Let's hope PK is finally ready for the job.

You and me are high on koochie. This has to be the year. Lucky we have The Bus playing well.

I like your posts usually that said this is a seriously infantile reponse bro do better, cough cough "Sample Size" hes faced 82 shots ANY GOAL IS GOING TO affect those #s disproportionately. I LIKE MILLER this isnt a headbutt and "cut" him type thing. 

But he was HORRIBLE last night.

Its not a great comparison, Raantas fall off was 95% between his ears, Sergai Bobrovsky is the same age too apples to oranges.

Anderson didn't play poorly, the defense was horrible in front of him and Miller literally put one in our net.

 

He has a weird crush on Miller.... I just don't think Miller is far enough along in our system to Be a great #1 D and anchor his pairing as the better defensive D man.....

Miller-Walker were on the same line for both Kings and Vegas, at least they were in warmups, not sure about switching during the games.

The biggest missing piece to me is Ghost who was reinjured in the Kings game, his defense is much improved and his points are needed on offense.

Most athletes struggle mentally when their bodies can no longer perform the way they are used to. And goalies specifically are voodoo practitioners, without belief they are useless.

Anderson didn't play poorly

I'm not basing my opinion on one game, or even on this short sample this season. Last season was statistically the 2nd worst season of his long career, until this year.

He has a weird crush on Miller....

I have a weird crush on all our players. Where have you been?

      Joe Person mock draft. Mar 5.

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I love this draft because they picked the right OL.  It is possible that we have 2 rookies starting on the OL.  I would take Utah's Lomu as well, but for those who think you find the OL in free agency and not the draft, here is all I have to say:  We cannot give $110m to the 5 starting OL.  We need an infusion of youth on the OL as well.  If Ickey returns and can play, I imagine that he takes over for Hunt at RG--in 2027 or so.  Currently, our 2 guards and right tackle make up over 20% of the total cap.  We have to add 2 starters, but if Cade Mays was too pricey at around (anticipated) $8m, then we plan to draft a C, it seems. I think we draft an OT and C now because we will need a G or 2 and a RT soon.  While they were good in 2026, they were not elite.  For that kind of $$, we need elite.  Is starting a rookie LT and C ideal?  Nope.  But if we can get better than Nijman and Mays, we should be OK. I think we will pick up an ILB in free agency and add an ILB.  Who we draft (Mike or Will) will depend on who we sign.  Rodriguez is a favorite of mine, but if Golday is there, Morgan is going to take him.  Morgan will love him. I do not think we need to overpopulate the edge position right now because we have 1 edge returning from injury (Jones II), one rookie from last year ready to step up and could be really good (Scourton), and another who could be ready to step into the situational pass rusher role (Princely).  2 hold the edge very well and if we had a situational pass rusher to join Princely, we could be much better. I think rookies at Edge tend to jump considerably from their rookie seasons to years 2 and 3.  (Charles Johnson, Mike Rucker, and Greg Hardy were that way-and all became very good in time. Safety seems omitted, but we shall see.  That could be another free agent acquisition.

      Id like Evans from Duke in the draft as a shooter for the second unit. And probably a more athletic big to replace all, he's good but doesn't really fit the style. White, Evans, green, Williams and center tbd is a pretty good second unit
