Post-Game Talk: Isles def. Canucks - 6-2 (Horvat x2)

[SeawaterOnIce]

Martin gets beat clean from distance far too often to to be NHL goalie

I heard a large boom...

It is either idiots setting off fireworks or @mossey3535 's head exploding from this shitty goaltending.

 

[Johnny Canucker]

Yeah Spencer Martin, just yeah.

That was trash.

Season ending presser is gonna be all about “we were missing our all star goalie for half the year blah blah injuries”

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Nucks
Home
5 GA
Rinse
Repeat

 

[gringo]

Miller was on for that one...

The one the goalie should have had?

 

[M2Beezy]

Its 5-2???? I missed the 4th Islander goal lol but still wrote the game off thinking itwas 3-2

 

[TruGr1t]

Man Martin has come crashing down to earth this year.

It was worth the gamble to try a cheap backup but he won’t be the back up next season

Another silly, low-percentage bet among many such bets in a desperate attempt to ice a full roster under the cap. Hope as a strategy, fully.

 

[EpochLink]

How many games at home did this team give up 5 goals?

 

[quat]

Miller said he hasn’t scored much because he’s been good defensively. He was on for 14 goals against in the last 13 games.

That's good right?

 

[tantalum]

Isles re-grouped after a rough start and got down to just playing good systems hockey. That’s the kiss of death for hopes of canuck wins..opposition that sticks to their system.

 

[EpochLink]

Team cannot play defense and our goaltending is a hot mess.

 

[sting101]

Miller was on for that one...

So what

 

[EpochLink]

Alright time to boo, lets go.

This system thing

 

[wonton15]

Time to rush Demko back for him to maintain a 4.00 GAA and reinjure himself

To the moon

Yeah it concerns me. Especially since he's getting beat while being ridiculously aggressive.

Still, especially at this salary he has been a solid backup in the past and IMO can continue to be a solid backup in the future.

This is what happens when a guy has to play a starter's workload for the first time and every team actually scouts you.

Not really. Happens a lot around the league. He earned the look and he’s had it. I don’t doubt that if they truly thought the team had a hope of doing any damage it would be addressed at this point. But they don’t so they’ll just ride it until Demko is ready.

 

[quat]

where does a team get one of those?

 

[EpochLink]

I have no clue why this team plays better on the road than at home.

 

[IslandBeast]

This is horrible product, it's almost awkward to watch.

That you Jim?

Oh wait when Jim played with it they never won the lottery.

 

[Breakers]

You’re going to see teams putting players on LTIR on purpose to tank.

He’s not playing well but at the same time it’s hard to blame him since it’s obvious this is overwhelming for him. Doesn’t help to have chaos giraffe in front of him as well

Martin is the backup because they capped themselves out signing wingers.
