GDT: 11/21/24 - 7:00PM EDT - Tampa Bay @ Columbus

[JTBF81]

JJ isn’t good, but the team was awful tonight. Players behind the D, odd man rushes, scoring chances for Columbus. Just a bad game. Kuch looked asleep in OT.

Bolts got a point with JJ in net while playing like trash. Take it and move on

Regardless, the fact remains that JJ is giving up 4 or 5+ a game, and the team can't afford that for another 15-20 games this season. There are better options that can be explored, and JBB should do so with haste.

Some great d out there, why didn't the Lighting score 7?

Shitty goalie performance. Road point. No Nick Paul. I'm good.

Well, maybe don't allow 43 shots on goal if there's a goalie in the net who's making the league's minimum wage. You're playing against a lottery team after all

Youre not wrong but look at his game log history. This isn't a one off. This is who he is as a goalie. He's done this NUMEROUS times and this was a horrible one. There really shouldn't be a reason we need to clench our cheeks and play game 7 intensity against a lottery team when Vasy isn't in net. The fact we have to put 4 or more on the board when he's in just to stay competitive is a joke. Imagine if we were awful offensively? JJ wouldn't even be in the league. He'd be torched with so many L's if he was on a worse team.

Another thing to consider is the team never plays with confidence when JJ is in net. They're always 4-6 gosl games. At dome point enough is enough. JJ us the problem.

Any other backup goalie would be better than this guy

As soon as they realize "Oh sh*t our goalie cannot stop a fing beach ball" they then start scrambling and over playing every puck. Panic overtakes the confidence. We need to get JJ off this team asap.

 

[The Macho King]

The biggest problem with JJ is he doesn't get you a whistle ever. Shots are going to bounce off of him - he doesn't absorb them. So unless you clear every zone entry is going to lead to sustained pressure.

He's real bad.

 

[Power Surge]

We really needed this one with this schedule coming up, dam. What BU goalies are available? Guess we better shore that up.

 

[The Gongshow]

I'm also gonna lose my fantasy hockey matchup now cause my opponent has Werenski, who stopped 2 goals (game winner) and 3 assists.

I'm cooked

I REALLY hope this is the last we see of Johansson. The team is playing multiple goals behind from the start when he's in. We were shit defensively but there's a reason these games happen every time he's starting. If you don't want to make a trade, just claim the first goalie on the waivers. Boom. You've upgraded the position. A f***ing cardboard cutout of Marc Denis would be better.

To say something good about this game, nice to see Goncalves get a point finally. He's played well in the last few games and probably deserved a couple of points already.
