Very good performance by JJ as well.

 

[BoltsFanSinceDay1]

Great play! Kuuuhhhhhhhhhhh Pointer!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rschmitz]

What a move by Point, deked Saros out of his jockstrap!

Two Nash guys going pressuring Kuch on the PK was not smart

 

[Peacefool]

JJ had a GREAT game, I hope it will help him to bounce back

 

[Soul Assumption]

JJ's first W of the season

Didn't he win against New Jersey?

Good catch, forgot about that one

Great, he's just over 5 GAA and .85 sv%

 

[LightningStrikes]

Cue the “JJ’s better!” chants!

 

[Hoek]

Stamkos will have to wait til next year to score on us, or beat us.

 

[Rschmitz]

So if recent history is any indication we are very likely to make a trade with Nashville before the TDL, anyone over there make sense for us to go after?

Jankowski maybe?

 

[Sky04]

Oh no we're 4 points back from the division lead with 2 games in hand, queue the rebuild.

Would love to get Evangelista, but it seems pretty unlikely they'd move him.

 

[RDTBay4]

Point is so underrated.

 

[Lightning1995]

Good to get the 2 points and good job Pinot giving up a grade A in the 3rd

 

[DFC]

Point is so underrated.

16 goals in 18 games. Nuts.

So much salt, buy why?

Credit, where credit is due to JJ, but I wonder if having Tomkins here on the bench played a little part. Nothing like calling up the guy who's next in line to take your job, to add some healthy competition/added pressure in what felt like a must play well game for JJ. Whatever works?

Coop gonna Coop

JJ has solid performances in him, he played the start of last season well even with the awful defense he needs to get there again. Obviously we're gambling pretty hard with league minimum goalies but that's the gameplan, can't really afford an expensive backup when we already have one of the highest paid goalies in the league.

Typo was trying to type good job NOT giving up any grade As in the 3rd

Yeah, that's the playoff move. If Vasy goes down, or performs poorly in the playoffs, we are never gonna be able to afford a back up who can carry us to a cup. So might as well go league min, so long as we can still make the playoffs.
