Cammi I feel like has been for a long long time so I am happy for her, but the other one was a bit less I thought, so I hope Granato is the senior Assistant based on her credentials.

Not low damn it. All Murray does is the lie down post to post stretch thing with his legs.
If you raise it you will score.

But, it was a decent save, just to appease the blokes here hoping he has a strong game.

Good save for sure. Carter shoulda just ripped it early though.

Yeah surprised to see Carter try to deke when he’s got a nice heavy shot.
I do commend Bierk for the work he’s done with Murray, I do know he comes with solid credentials with his goalie school and what he did in the OHL. I think it helps a ton when the goalie coach is also a 6’4” bloke that was a goalie in the NHL at some point, stylistically it helps when the coach understands your size issues in net.

Honestly with how many that don’t get called for us, I’m hard pressed to feel bad.

Biggest difference I see is his confidence level. Rebound control is better. Aerial tracking is faster.

I’m annoyed. Cause I know if I switch to the Olympics Sid will score, but if I continue watching it probably won’t happen. Dammit.

If you listen to that PDOCast about goalies especially mentioning the bigger ones like Vasilevskiy, Markstrom, etc. Murray was mentioned, that his game was reliant on the way the team played in front of him and when the Pens changed it up as it wasn’t sustainable, Murray never adjusted and adapted so he struggled heavily and given he’s pretty stubborn and arrogant in his own abilities, not a bad thing until it is, he needed to be almost out of a career before he really figured things out with Bierk this year. You can see how he plays now, closer to being the goalie we hoped he was.
I think I despise him more because of how it went down, the arrogance in the Canucks owning his ass and then the way he played not really changing it up to adjust, but he has this year with some serious help with Bierk and he looks like the goalie we thought we were going to cheer on for years, I 100% was in that group on the main board telling others we had an elite goalie in Murray and had dreams of the amazing tandem of Murray-Jarry, thank god Jarry is still here.
This could have been so ugly after losing Gustavsson, then Murray was moved and if the Pens panicked last year, we’d have DeSmith and some hasbeen as our back-up.
Elite goalies are elite because they are just that f***ing good regardless of how their team adjusts in front of them - I think Markstrom and Vasilevskiy are those types and Shesterkin I am skeptical about, he’s amazing with his movements so maybe he’s in that category too the more we see him.
