Add Cujo and Brodeur to that list. And your right, not many goalies stand out these days. Those goalies we've mentioned played in the dead puck era though, scoring is way up now. An early 3-0, 4-0 lead used to be a sure win, most of the time. Nowadays that can disappear easily.

I want to like Bernier, but he doesn't make it easy.

Man, Vancouver's uniforms are ugly as hell, just a mess haha. Gotta be the worst in the league. They need to go back to the black/yellow/red uniforms.

Not Bernier...christ.

So many Leaf fans around here are pissed about how Nylander is stinking it up after holding out for what amounts to 8 million a season, although cap hit is around 6.5 i think with the deal being front loaded. Kid is making 10 million this season. TEN. MILLION. Should have traded him IMO, probably could have got a solid second pairing D man. They have plenty of scoring without him. I don't watch any Leaf games, but knowing their fan base, i can imagine the fans are just letting him have it when he's on the ice. haha

Anyone got a good stream for this?

My dad probably saw that. Kinda, since I was probably doing my best to be a little s*** and distract him.

Fair reason. "Tonight's starting goaltenders..in goal for your Sudbury Wolves..no. 1, Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen" You can tell the announcer is getting real tired of it everytime you hear it, and it's only been half a season. Just wants to say "The Finnish kid" or something...

Ahh to be 17 years old again and see the '97 Cup won live...memories.

Just like his fat dad.

All true. They are a crap shoot. Would be nice to get him, but not really a reason other than to pad the prospect pool, which is always good to do at that position. But they do have some good prospects already. The Wings did draft McCollum 30th overall out of Guelph, and he barely saw NHL ice. Lots of other failed higher round goalies too, and stars from later rounds.

True, but he does make quite a bit for a complimentary piece, especially if not much changes with him. I understand wanting to get him signed with his past performances, but he's got 3 points in 18 games. And 14 PIM, 4 more than he did in 82 games last year. He's snakebitten and frustrated, clearly.

Maybe Applefritter can punch him instead. And why is that jersey on someones dirty patio? Pre-burn pic?

LOL That one still sucks.

Nylander isn't looking too good since returning after holding out. Maybe that big money/term deal he signed is weighing him down. So many Leaf fans around here are pissed, it's great. If he doesn't pick it up soon, no ones making a deal for him in the offseason with that contract. The time to trade him was before this.

Would be nice to get Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen from Buffalo. Currently playing in the OHL for the Wolves, huge reason why they're sitting second in their division. If he hadn't left to play in the WJC (where he helped Finland win gold), they'd still be in first place. He sees and stops quite a bit of rubber. He's obv a little ways away from pro, but he'd be a nice addition to the prospect pool. He's a game changing goalie, doesn't seem to get rattled, big kid at 6,5" 215, quick laterally, covers a lot of the net low. But, Buffalo took him in the second round and have him signed, so i dunno if they'd be willing to part with him, or if the Wings have the pieces to spare for another goaltending prospect. Buffalo doesn't seem to be looking for goaltending help heading into the playoffs either.

Yep, 7. Philly goalie roulette wheel of doom is very active, as always. If only Elliott could stay healthy, they'd be fine for now. Let Hart be his backup, or even share time to keep him playing, but Hart is their future for sure. The rest are minor leaguers or useless like Neuvirth. Guy gets hurt everytime a puck hits his pads.

What Columbus gave up in the deal to get Bobrovsky from Philly is also VERY funny, especially in hindsight. And it's not as if Bobrovsky was bad in Philly, he was actually damn good. They just have a way of always screwing themselves royally when it comes to goaltenders for the past two decades, and put their money on Bryzgalov instead. Hart could be the long term starter they need though. They've used 7 different goalies so far this season. To Columbus: Sergei Bobrovsky To Philadelphia: CBJ 2nd 2012 (Anthony Stolarz), VAN 4th 2012 (Taylor Leier), ARI 4th 2013 ( Justin Auger)

Agreed. Always thought it was pretty bad. Larkin made it up on video as a kid, video got out, Dboss it was.

D and goaltending would help. Cholo has taken big steps and Green and Howard have been good, but not much else to be happy about there.

Being a goalie. lol It happens. Doesn't seem like he has a history of it or anything. Yeah, he's a first class ****** that guy. I just noticed the interviewer asked Bob if he was going to finish the season in Columbus. Haha, no dude, he's gonna bail on his contract and retire at age 30. Unless he was fishing for possible deadline trade rumours...

BERTTTTT

Not sure, but better than Bernier's i'd guess. He's just been horrific.

hahaha I didn't realize Brossoit was doing so well for the Jets this season. 9-1-1, 2.10 GAA, .939 sv%, 1 SO. Solid UFA grab, although he wasn't really on any teams radar after mixed results in Edmonton when he did get to play. Hellebuyck is capable of playing a lot of games, but it's good they have a solid number 2, maybe rest him a bit before playoffs. He looked out of gas in the WCF last year. If I could pick any Canadian team to win the Cup, it would be the Jets. The rest can go pound salt.

That's some sassy company right there with Larkin in the top 5. Draisaitl is better then two of the four first overalls in six years the Oilers got. He's on a tear this season, any scoring they lost when trading Hall he's more than picked up the slack for.
