Still trying to figure out why fans are starting to bail. It's a real brainbuster.

As I have also said countless times that it is not a coincidence that 2 goalies that have posted great numbers in the past are both a good .12-.15 S% below their careers playing behind this defense

Just because you say things a lot doesn't make it a valid point, Korpisalo has been bad in all but 3 of his 9 year career. Forsberg has 1 good season in the 4 he played more than 10 games.

Kelly has been getting some chances
Normally I would just giggle because hey, it's Kelly. Full points to him for his energy and heart - working hard tonight. If Sens stars can't put a puck in a wide-open net, probably unfair for me to expect he can do anything with it.

These goalies used to be great but we give up the most

@Answer looking at HDCA. We look to be smack dab in the middle of the league lol

Kelly deserves a lot of credit for his play, might be the only guy who has looked better since the coaching change.

Kelly misses some skill but he plays the right way, hits, doesn't cheat you on effort... and he thinks the game well that's why he can adjust between very different lines.

I’m asking you. I provided a stat that I looked up. hDSA. I was genuine when I said I may have misread the acronym. But it appeared we were middle of the pack.

These goalies have put up very few great numbers in their career man. Forsbergs best numbers were with us lmao.

And no answer for the low dangers? Why are these guys so bad at saving those

Man hamonic got physically abused by whoever scored that goal lol.

I will do some digging with advance numbers when I have free time but middle of the pack doesn't sound to good, especially once compared with playoffs Teams. How ever, I do know that the amount of quality scoring chances we were giving away (especially before JM) is not what a playoff Team should be. We have cut down on these since JM but we still have a lot of defensive breakdowns at the rate that the good Teams don't

and yes I am aware its only few great numbers, but their careers haven't been that long either, also I know Forsberg numbers were with us, so that shows his improvement

Middle of the pack is middle of the pack and the goaltending should follow suit. But it doesn’t. It’s way worse than our team defence is.

Which is middle of the pack. I’m sure you didn’t expect me to say it was middle of the pack

HALF the league makes the playoffs lol what do you mean compare that to playoff teams?

As I said, all heart and effort. I just observe that he cannot be expected to pot all his chances. I wish other more skilled players on the team tried or cared as much as he does. He isn't a problem.
