Still trying to understand why Maurice decided to stop making 'adept moves' with his goaltenders and decided to no longer 'will' his team to victory. He picked a bad time get selfish and hold back these incredible skills that someone professed over and over again that only Maurice had. Oh well. Guess we will never know, unless mr. humble gets a gig on Sportsnet and decides to share wisdon.

and my point is how the team played in front of him had a major impact on his putrid save%
But how the team played in front of him should have resulted in said putrid sv% more than a few times. 9 goals is just a wholesale failure/incredibly lucky shooting percentage on either side of the coin.
I saw all the games in all 4 series. Bob allowed goals in the final that he wasn’t allowing as regularly in the previous 3 series and just wasn’t making as many saves on high danger chances as before. Credit Vegas for burying those as much as blaming Bob. Point being, I don’t think overall Florida played much differently defensively in front of him for the most part. They ran out of gas/luck up front more than anything.

I think @Guffman does a great job at keeping a discussion going and I believe their posts to be more in a fun vein.
It’s fun to poke back because they give it out and take it well.

I can text him and ask.

I sometimes get in trouble (for example, I am no longer allowed to talk to Hab fans about Dubois). It’s all in fun! :)

I already figured out that his posts are all a joke. Good to see him respond to your post admitting it to everyone!

Florida didn't look very good at all, especially in the Finals. However, Tkachuk and Bob willed the team to the Prince of Wales Trophy. Then Tkachuk was playing hurt, and Bob came back to earth.
