Player Discussion All Purpose Goaltending Thread

Seems Reimer isn't all that great anyway.

According to Moneypuck, he has 9 GA on 8.57 xGA.

Reimer hasn't been great. But, the Ducks have played like trash in front of him.

Well, Levi doesn't play at all, and who's worse off because of that?

 

[NotABadPeriod]

And Belleville (Ottawa) just signed Malcolm Subban to an AHL deal. Would have been nice to pivot to something like that to boost the organizational depth after losing Reimer...

Yes, Levi needs to play a lot, it's not right for him to just sit on the bench. While Levi is sitting on the bench, the same Askarov is spending his third season in the AHL.

John Gibson has been removed from IR. He may back up Dostal tonight.

 

[Craig Ludwig]

Buffalo, what are you doing to Levi??? He could be an important part of your future, and you're just letting him waste away on the bench....

Dumb decision our GM.

Dumb decision our GM.

how are you certain that upl would take the starters job as he has clearly w the past three without the competition w Levi ?

I imagine this was ruff, calculated risk etc

I imagine while the team waits on Reimer , if Levi is dominate in his next start or fails because he needs more reps , this will determine was ka and ruffwill do as long as upl remains diald in ... claim Reimer if avail or another to mature and give Levi minutes w a vet more comfortable w only getting 20 starts capable of winning 13 if that exists


I think all of these choices and moves are much more fluid and day to day than people think

Ducks prolly holding Reimer ransom hoping we get desperate and send them a late pick.

For some reason ESPN+ let me watch the game yesterday. And the goaltending was....

 

[Fjordy]

There is an obvious step, but will Adams take it?

There's no way he doesn't claim Kahkonen and send Levi to Rochester, right?

 

[Ehran]

There's no way he doesn't claim Kahkonen and send Levi to Rochester, right?

With GMKA's 5 year track record of handling the goaltending position I actually find it quite doubtful that he claims Kahkonen, TBH.

It's logical. Most people think it's the best plan to move forward, so it won't happen.

 

[Fjordy]

Well, if he wants to continue torturing Levi, then he can.

 

[Ehran]

Kahkonen back to Winnipeg (edited to correct team)

Reimer waived and Buffalo has first dibs.

I don't really understand how this works. Jets were the first to claim him?

Same with Reimer? Buffalo will be the first to do so or not the last team in the league at the moment?

 

[Jim Bob]

No they don't. It follows the normal waivers order.

 

[Ehran]

No they don't. It follows the normal waivers order.

Ahh, correct. My bad. If Buffalo is the only team to claim him they can send him directly to Rochester. But they don't get first dibs.

 

[Jacob582]

So if UPL can't play/back up and Reimer can't make it in time for the game tomorrow I would call up Ratzlaff under emergency conditions.


Edit: never mind, maybe. I thought Ratzlaff was in the OHL
