You can tell how this season is going based on Joe’s quickly receding hairline.
I know we're all loving being in a funk right now, but if you changed 'tough' to 'PIA' then the bolded basically reads like Laf's pre-draft analysis and we drafted him....
None of which has anything to do with weird claims that we wouldn't have drafted Tkachuk if presented the opportunity...Lafy has stuck up for more teammates than some of the leaders have done like Mika Panarin etc. oh that is not their game. Who cares. You stick up for your teammates. At least Kreider does that sometimes
It's the truth brother ! Go ahaead and preach it.This is going to sound preachy, but I don't care.
The only thing separating this team from the one this time last year is goaltending. A .935 Shesterkin lets in 32 goals as opposed to the 44 this .913 Shesterkin has. Halak has been just bad enough to lose every game.
Yes the PP is underperforming right now. But it's actually statistically right around where it was at this time last year.
The reality is that just like in 2015 we have a decent roster with some serious flaws. The type of flaws are different from that group, but each roster requires a goalie playing a Vezina finalist level in order for us to be serious cup contenders.
Goaltending matters. Philadelphia lost the cup finals in 2010 because, and only because, they had an AHL goalie at the helm. NYR can't win with league average goaltending, because we haven't drafted well enough or managed the cap well enough to have four line three pairing depth. That's just the reality.
Is this guy ever going to play ?
For real. Joe is next if that’s the caseSam breaking out in covid live before our eyes.
