Hasek was 33 in Nagano. Seemed ok-ishI know these things a cyclical, but it's not a good sign when your top two goalies are 36 and 33.
Good thing nobody on these boards is in charge of these decisions .
Good thing [those specific individuals] aren't in charge*How in the world did you manage to confuse "a handful of posters in this thread" with "[everybody] on these boards"?
It is the prerogative of online posters and taxi drivers to solve all of the world's problems.Good thing nobody on these boards is in charge of these decisions .
I've been discussing his play, which there isn't much bad to discuss, for years. Was I probably discussing, in positive terms, his first games in the league? I probably was. However, thats very different from what that person said.
If you want to make an accusatory claim against someone, be prepared to back it up. That guy obviously wasn't. I didn't bother him. He comes in here and attacks me with something he has no clue if its actually true, and then when asked for receipts, he makes excuses for why he can't give them. It seems like he got mad that I wasn't discussing Price in the terms he wanted, so he tried to attack me, not my opinion on Price. This is the extent some go to in defending this guy. Instead of making an argument against why we should judge Price differently than every other player in the league, they make claims that they don't know if they are true, but they hope it will stick and can discredit the person who made the obvious points.
I replied to you earlier in this thread. You ignore it. Post#111. You made a nonsense claim (that Price is only in consideration for Canada's #1 goalie because of the Toronto series - as if he wasn't the obvious #1 choice beforehand too) - and then ignored someone responding to you, as you do in so many other threads.
Post#214 in this thread - I responded to three other posters who were also accusing you of running away from an argument when things don't go your way. I told them it's pretty typical. As far as I know - you still haven't responded to either of those posts either.
So yeah - the bolded is the biggest case of the pot calling the kettle black if I've ever seen one. We're only having this conversation because we're accusing you of not responding to posters who reply to you.
As to you claiming Shesterkin should be in consideration for #1 goalie in the world after his 9 game rookie start - well, you did. And no I don't care enough to go search through 47 000 posts of your history to find the posts where you did so. I already pointed this out to you in a previous thread a few months back - and huge shocker - you failed to even acknowledge my response. So not about to do it again.
In finish - Carey Price is the best goalie in the world in my opinion. All of his peers know it (they vote him as such every year) - and he's the #1 favorite for the Conn Smythe trophy as of today. Still lots of hockey left to play, so we'll see how far he goes.
Staying topic - there's more than a 99.99% certainty that Carey Price would be named the #1 goalie for Canada if the Olympics started today. Everyone else but you in this thread seems to acknowledge that.
No, he's not a top 3 Canadian goalie. But if Canada wants him to be their first goalie, I'm not arguing. It'll give other teams a chance to win.
33 is fine, 36 is starting to get a bit old.I know these things a cyclical, but it's not a good sign when your top two goalies are 36 and 33.
Not worried. Blackwood and Hart should be ready to take over once Price falls off. And that's assuming no one else steps up.I know these things a cyclical, but it's not a good sign when your top two goalies are 36 and 33.
