Are you sure that he's our next #2 goalie ?? He can't establish himself in the AHL imagine in the NHL

Why? Niemi has been great for the team so far. Unless his play drops from here to seasons end I’d resign.he's been really solid in the AHL this year for the most part. Unless he's traded he should be a lock to be Price's backup next year. I think he can do the job now but another year in the AHL should be good for him.

not this season
gave 3 or more in each of his 3 starts
.905 is his best SV%
he was very good last season, below average so far this season.Anyone who is not just stat watching knows Niemi has been fine. He's just a placeholder for Lindgren, though.

and yeah, some people can look at numbers and watch games you know...
Niemi hasn't been the problem in any of his games.

he has not.Niemi has been fine. Stop nitpicking at **** all the time.
he has not.
you have low standards, that's your problem, not mine.
just "not being the problem" is not enough...Well what are you expecting from a backup? Obviously the standards are low. Niemi has fulfilled them.
just "not being the problem" is not enough...
given Habs record, safe to say no one has been a problem per se... yet not everyone has been good (well if you think every player has been good then I'll leave you to your fairytales - DLO, Shaw, Niemi havent)
and part of the very few who have been below average, there's Niemi.
very low standards.Yes it is when we're talking about a backup goalie.

simplistic view, watch the games, not the record.

I am glad the Habs re-signed Niemi because none of Lindbren or McNiven is ready for NHL duties....
been below average.If you were watching the games you'd know that he deserves the record he has.
Sure as hell is as a rookie or backup goaltender! I think your problem is failing to understand player development. Especially goaltenders. You need to relax about this dynamic and let others help you. Hope all is well brother!just "not being the problem" is not enough...

maybe yours is understanding posts. Comment was about Niemi.Sure as hell is as a rookie or backup goaltender! I think your problem is failing to understand player development. Especially goaltenders. You need to relax about this dynamic and let others help you. Hope all is well brother!
Lindgren is pretty bad. Worst technique from a hab goalie since Aebischer imo
I agree; his technique is horrible. He’s so overrated by this fan base. He’s at best an AHL middle of the pack starter. He’s not an NHL calibre goalie at all.
