Another tummy ache. He has to stop with the spicy food.

Sore purse carrying shoulder.

He probably cant get focused with no DJ there anymore playing music.

Probably left due to blocking too many shots and retrieving them adding to his leg block shots and puck retrievals per 60

You do not ever pay individual goalies more than 7% of the cap. Ever.

(That’s roughly $6.5M AAV on an $88M cap)

Tullio looking good in the Sabres game with all non roster players

2A so far, not a bad outing for him.

An 8 year deal for most goalies seems pretty risky too. Especially at that price point.

 

[FlameChampion]

Didn’t watch it but that Islanders/Rangers box score is crazy haha

Gotta be something weird. Maybe chest hair implants getting caught in equipment.

Just saw Garland. Man that guy is annoying to look at

It’s those new jerseys. They really chafe the 3rd and 4th nipples.

It's been many moons since he sat out a game.

Feel like shaking his hand?

 

[CROTT]

Wasn't sure where to put this, but good to see Connor/the Oilers goal horn making an impression on the leafs players even with playing limited games against.



Edit: It was up for a 11 minutes.... They barely played the songs it was mostly the horns so I can't really see it being a copy right strike.

I might be tempted with Shesterkin, not Swayman though.

He is a diving rat

Shesterkin reportedly wants 12M. That’s a hard no from me. Starting goalies play roughly 60-65% of the games and wear down over time. Rangers are going to bite though.

I think about $9M AAV, maaaaaaaybe $10 for the best of the best of the best is as high as I would go on a goalie. This isn't the 90s anymore where you can ride your top guy for 70 games and actually be able to rely on strong, consistent performance season to season.

$12 for Shesterkin is obscene, but he's one of the guys you would probably pay for. He's done it three years in a row in the #1 role and he's performed. Swayman, however, is not close to in the same camp. Don't think he's ever played more than 40 games, always played in a tandem, and has always played for a strong team.

I feel like you could plug and play Shesterkin around the league and get similar results from him, he's legit. Jury is still very much out on if Swayman is a product of his environment or the real deal.

I swear the media in Leaf land is Pejorative Slured. 2 preseason losses and asks the coach if it’s “time to panic?” Why anyone would want to willingly play in that place is beyond me.

$12M (x8) is just too much for a goalie - 1 injury from a massive LTIR penalty. Plus as we all know goalies are voodoo. Something gets in their head and they become wet tissue paper in net.

100%

I hope that GMs hold firm on not allowing goalie salary to escalate like this. Assuming Skinner continues to build out his game, I was hoping we could get him on a deal in the $6's. If salaries continue to rise we might not be able to pay him at all.

 

[Oilhawks]

Know a guy that met him (Berube's brother coaches baseball locally) and said he's as down to earth as he seems publicly.

I can't imagine a guy from Calahoo, going from a very tame Blues market is going to enjoy the pressure pot of Leafsland

"time to panic?"

If the reporter meant "about making the decision to coach here", maybe?
