GDT: Four Nations Tournament - Part 3 - Championship Game: USA vs Canada , Feb 20th @ 8pm ET (ESPN, ESPN+)

Which is also why you don’t pay Vezina winners like 1Cs. Every goalie is going to give up bad goals and there is no control over when. The difference between league average and Vezina is like 1.8% more saves per 100 shots.

But I think this is also why you need to take into consideration the quality of shots against. Nyr can give up 25 shots in a game and 15-18 are high quality shots against whereas other teams may give up more shots but they are of lesser danger. This board has been killing nyr for years for how bad the team is defensively and yet that never seems to translate to shot danger when analyzing nyr goaltending. Also I think too many people dismiss the fatigue level that kicks in just from extended zone time against even if it's not full of shots against. Nyr gets caved in on zone time and they are like turnbuckles defensively.

The Hughes brothers all told will end up more famous than the Staal or Sutter brothers

Fox with the outlet and it immediately gets intercepted. He must have thought he was back on the Rangers.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Was Eruzione always 5ft6"?

Probably not in grade school

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Lmao nice giveaway Krieder to almost lead to a goal.

 

[RangerLifer]

Fox can't play anymore. WTF is wrong with him?

 

[mike14]

This tournament has been great for people to see how good some opposing players are. Ive been surprised by some of them.

It made me realise I have no idea who Harley is or who he plays for

 

[17futurecap]

Get up Nelson

 

[Filip Chytil]

Sloppy from US

Lmao nice giveaway Krieder to almost lead to a goal.

A classic Rongo play

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

Kreider sucks

 

[GAGLine]

Too many turnovers.

 

[CasusBelli]

One team came to play …

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Not looking good

 

[will1066]

The NY line is the 4th line

 

[Machinehead]

Lmao nice giveaway Krieder to almost lead to a goal.

Was that Kreider?

Oh man, Fox was back on the Rangers for a second!

 

[mrmovies779]

Nice saves Helly.Time to pick up your game men

 

[bl02]

Horrible shift by Kreider. He looks almost as bad as J. Hughes with all the turnovers.

 

[bleedblue94]

Shesty would have saved it

He does better with traffic than hellybuck does, but on a serious note if that was the rangers defense and not USA then the shot would have come from between the hashmarks and not the blueline.

A Russian team in this tournament would have been an issue.

 

[Boris Zubov]

If you take this team as a sample, we might be a country that's good at hockey, but we sure are ugly.

Our foods have some pretty gnarly ingredients...doesn't bode well for reproductive health.

 

[noncents]

It made me realise I have no idea who Harley is or who he plays for

dude watch the stars, they have some really excellent young players.

nelson looks absolutely cooked

 

[FoxysExpensiveNYDigs]

How pissed would we be if the McAvoy situation had happened to Fox? Bruins fans gotta be livid.

 

[TheDirtyH]

The NY line is the 4th line

And that's too high IMO

 

[bleedblue94]

Fox getting abused

Nah, it's still lindgren's fault...

Unless you have a Little League World Series Championship. Then you can do whatever you want.
