Sbisa was on the wrong side of the Nashville guy, granting him a clear chance to put the rebound in.

That's what I saw too. We had three guys nearby and none were trying to tie him up or play strong on the stick.

Give Fasth an extra second there, and he covers.

or he can keep his legs closed..

You expect the goalie to keep his leg closed the entire game? He wasn't protecting the five hole because that isn't where the shot was going... that's why it hit him in the chest.

Go Beleskey!

hazy made a point a few games back (i take ANY comment from hazy about our goalies with a grain of salt) but, it made sense...he said that since fasth is a smaller goalie, in order to cover more of the lower ice, he wont fully close his pads...now, ive played goalie once so i have no idea as im a forward, but it made sense

no he doesn't have to keep his legs closed the entire game but he was already down in the butterfly. you'd like to think that in the butterfly he has his knees together after it drops in front of him
