45 games to figure out what probably could have been decided upon in camp. Injuries would have caused some juggling, but the best plan was not in place for a long time regardless.

Like most I’m not happy with how the goaltending situation has played out, but I also can sympathize with Adams’ dilemma heading into the season.
Between UPL’s inconsistent but overall decent play, Levi’s strong finish last season, and Comrie’s battles with injury derailing his ability to establish any rhythm, I didn’t hate his approach of tossing them all into the pot to see which one rises to the top.
The alternative of hitting the FA market and landing a dud like Korpisalo makes the wait and see approach even more palpable.
Or maybe the solution to our goalie woes all along was getting Skinner out of the lineup.

I wonder if this is going to be a thing for a while -- let Levi get NHL practices but on days where Buffalo and Rochester both play.....and Levi isn't slated to play in Buffalo.....Levi goes down, Comrie comes up.
Remember: Now that Comrie has passed through waivers, he can be on the NHL roster for 30 days or 10 games before needed to be re-exposed to waivers.
Also won't shock me at all if Levi is sent to Rochester after the Cali trip for the ASG/our bye.

Did he kick your dog or something? Call him by his actual name.
no, the weasel is why we missed the playoffs last year and are in the situation we are in now
Just remember, the goaltending suddenly got better once he was sent down to Rochester

Shouldn't you be blaming Adams not Comrie? Adams signed him expecting him to be a number one goalie.

Problem is, they don't practice as much in the NHL as they do in Rochester. He should be getting both practice and game action to work on his game but here we are.
Of course that is Adams' fault
He likely suffered a few too many concussions when playing that he is not operating with a full deck

He got a game since they bumped the scheduled start (he was slated to go in the middle of the week). He should be down and working on his game instead of whatever this is was what I was trying to get at.

I can’t believe I didn’t make this connection lol.Or maybe the solution to our goalie woes all along was getting Skinner out of the lineup.
UPL has been the 2nd best goalie in the league over the past 6 games with Skinner out.

Crease Crapshoot: Why NHL goaltender is the most volatile position in pro sports
Every year, benchwarmers suddenly become star stoppers, and stars turn into pumpkins. Why?

for the first time in who knows long, we have 2 goalies who can win games. This lets us ride the hot one
UPL is at .500 while Levi is 2 games above .500
Comrie... is minor league fodder. His starts are why we are still 2 games below .500

and here is the proof Comrie was the problem here
We'd be in the thick of the playoff race had Comweasal never played a game. That is why I am so against Comrie
