It's easy to focus on Jarry letting in a couple of bad goals but that shouldn't distract anyone from the fact that the Habs outplayed and out skated the Penguins for most of that period.

If not for Lars, that's a bigger embarrassment.

For the next month, or however long it takes, practice needs to consist of nothing but behind the net retrievals with only Jarry and Graves until they manage to knee on knee each other.
I'd still very much like to see a massive clean open ice hit on Mike Sullivan by Arber Xhekaj.

Tristan Jarry hasn’t won an NHL game since March.

Turnovers, him leaving his post on goal #1 says otherwise.
Not saying he's been perfect but relative to how he was playing in other games this season this is a marked improvement.

He's rocking an almost 80% xgoals 5v5 as well

I wouldn't say TJ has been bad in this one. Hasn't been clutch either. I'd like the first goal back but other than that I don't have any issue with goals 2 or 3 going in on him.

Habs have an xgf of 2 and that feels right to me. Jarry has let in one more than he should have.

They let the Habs out skate them because they don't trust their goalie and don't think it's worth it to put in the effort when they believe their goalie will just let them down so why bother.

Tristan Jarry has never been clutch in his entire life.

When/if he has kids I pray nobody in the delivery room asks him to catch the baby.

If he didn't do that (or worse) in every start, it would be easier to look past.
