GDT: Here comes the Lombergini

[CatscratchFever]

I'd lIke to join in on shitting on the tender, but when you haven't scored a goal in 120 minutes, there's other things to fuss about.

There are much worse goalies in the league. Keep in mind that leaguewide sv% tanked this season.

Knight has allowed at least one stinker in every one of the last 3 games. The one last night was one of the worst goals I’ve ever seen. His salary is what will make him a casualty of this team. I still think he will be a great goalie one day and it will hurt if it’s not on this team, but we’re handcuffed with his salary. I do think some of the criticism has been unwarranted but still, he just hasn’t been up to the task

Winning with a mediocre or bad performance gets a champion only so far. They better turn it up a notch next game

Meanwhile our 10M$ goalie:
(I know he is a starter, but he is 36 yo though. At some point of his career, he will decline finally and not bounce back).

Lots of excellent high-danger saves but SHOCKING amount of stinkers:

And this is Knight:

That edge isn't there right now.

This team is so ekbad that it's not even funny anymore

Stat charts won't change the fact that Knight is not performing well enough for a goalie trying to break into a starting position in the NHL, and it has unfortunately become a pattern throughout his time as a Panther. I'm in the camp that is worried he'll turn into a great starting goalie the second he leaves this team, but if he's not going to figure it out here, at some point you need to consider turning the page.
