It doesn't need to be bacon. After a handful of games, yes one of those other options should have been tried. Or f*** it, call up Ed who was in GR. But coach stuck with that pairing until Olli got sick and he was forced to shuffle pairings anyway. Like not playing Lyon last season until he had a back to back situation and one of the other goalies was literally not on the right continent. Or not realizing that the NHL allows timeouts. Coach is unwilling or unable to step in and coach if something isn't working. He can't do anything if he doesn't have a full practice.But for the first 15 of those games Walman was injured and the other possible partners would have been Hagg or Oesterle. You can't wrap your filet with bacon if you only have kidney, liver and lung.
