I still say we start Ullmark against Carolina, I still don't trust Forsberg that much and we should let Ullmark get a quick bounce back.

I think the plan was to win vs Phile with Ullmark and start Forsberg here to give Ullmark a rest and get Forsberg a game...

The 1st part didn't happen but the 2nd part will go ahead

I'll give you last night's game, but what are the other games?

Actually, I will take that back and he hasn't single handedly lost us any games except the last one but he has failed to make a safe or two when we really needed it to win some games, that we did ended up losing.

He was brought in solely to be an elite goalie and win us some games which he keeps failing to do.

He arguably lost wins vs Buffalo and maybe NYR. Perhaps a loser point against NYR. So he single handedly lost 5 points this year, which is a huge percentage.

I can agree with pretty much all of this, Ullmark needs to be better, and hasn't lived up to expectations so far, I still have faith he can turn it around and be a key part of the future but there's no denying he hasn't been great so far

We scored a combined two goals in those games, if he lost them what's the expectations, a shutout every game?

I confused Vegas and Buffalo losses as he allowed a 5 spot against each. I guess the expectation is for him to not get consistently outplayed by the opposing goalie when the team plays strong. Need to get one point when we dominate regardless of getting goalied.
