His teammates seemed happy for him.

He got signed Thursday. I’m sure they’re real close. As opposed to them just being happy to have won the game.

That 2014 first rounder by the lightning


3 division games coming up

Should have drafted Schmaltz or Pastrnak obviously, the character concerns were obvious

 

[JTBF81]

unfortunately when it's a breakaway it's always a goal because Vasy will never make a save

Lol, another pathetic take. Yeah, only stopped 33/36, but never makes a save....

Vasy is currently 4th in the league in Save Percentage for goalies who've played at least 20 games.

Read better, he never makes saves on breakaways

Nice to steal a point at the end but the better team won. Islanders probably played to the best of their ability in that one, stuck to the gameplan and looked pretty good considering their roster.

Another vanilla performance from the Bolts with no variance to their game at all, just no ability to switch things up nor the personnel. These are the games where you need some big bodies, physical presences to get an ugly goal and do some work down low and disrupt. Remember how the Maroon line used to cycle like clockwork? I cannot think of one single shift like that all season with this group. Just not built to go all the way.

Well I doubt JBB makes a move before the break, but the sooner he adds some F depth to the middle 6,the better.

Make less stupid remarks, of course he does.

But much less often than any average goalie

He's not average and he stops plenty. As was posted above, he's 4th in the league in sv %. I know trolls like yourself can't help yourself from being miserable regardless of a win or loss thouvh.

Unfortunately I think he will wait until the TDL to maximize available cap space, which really sucks because this team could use a little bit of a shakeup right now.

It's true that the closer he waits to the deadline, the more they accrue. I guess much will depend on how the next few games go, both before and after the break, to see where they stand and if the offense can start getting back to a 3+ gf/g average instead of where they have been the last couple of weeks or so.

How many breakaway saves does an average goalie make?

And how much is "much less often"?

I have no idea if such advanced stats exist. Maybe you know? But purely based on the eye test, it seems to me that Vasy very rarely saves on breakaways, which is also funny, because at the same time he is good in shootouts. Not quite the same, i know
