I have no problem with people bashing Price when he deserves it, heck i don't even mind it when he doesn't really. Its the handful of posters that always show up and bash him no matter what that drive me nuts. We have a few posters on this board that just can't seem to talk about anything else, its like they're brain washed. When we win and Price plays well, we don't seem them, but as soon as things go bad and Price can be blamed, they're in the GDTs and posting non stop about how he sucks.

I was blaming Price? That's news to me. All I said is that it was likely that it would be up to him to bail us out at some point, as a team like the Pens were likely going to get some scoring opportunities sooner or later.

But don't let the actual content of my post get in the way of your over-sensitive bashing.

Again I don't see why Price has to bail us out? What about useless Desharnais who simply doesn't give a **** after his shiny new contract? Our supposed #1 offensive centre? What about Pacioretty?

The offence has been crap, I don't know why people are saying othwerwise. But Price has to bail us out?

Maybe you didn't mean it but your post sure hinted that if we lose, it's on Price.

one word 6.5 millions you gotta make those saves specially when it's the first dangerous shot of the game.

I wish all of the none-sense Price haters to wake up tomorrow and turning into Flyers fan. Now they'll have a reason to cry.

I know stats don't tell the whole story, but he's barely in the Top-40 in SV%. We need him to be A LOT better than that.

The home and road stats are absolutely mind boggling. I don't understand how they can be so different.

Exactly, i like Price, i just want him to be the elite goalie the fanbase and the media have been promoting him since he was drafted...

bashing Price for giving up a good goal to the best player in the world are the same people who would be praising the shot if it was Pacioretty getting that identical goal on Fleury. :shakehead

Sooooooooo true.

If it was Pac that scored against Fleury we would have seen this:

Max with a laser!
Max the sniper.
Max with a perfect shot!

Because he knows Price won't be rattled and that Budaj would have done no better since the team in front of Price was playing like crap.
I know. But once it hit 4-0 he should've pulled Price and given him a break. It was clear we were getting smoked that night.

Typical post from this guy. All he ever does is bash Price, check his post history. One of the most negative posters I have ever read and just annoying as can be.

A lot of my post are actually defending Desharnais and giving my take on a lot of player. The only player I really dislike is Price.

And the Carolina game I admitted he stole it.

I'm not going to act like I like the guy. But I will in fact point out the moment that male me hate him. At least I'm consistent with my opinions.

By the way I defended his contract because that's his value around the league.

I just like someone to tell me what Price has actually accomplish for this team because I don't see it.

Totally granted. But in the "overall" sense, he hasn't been that bad. Commentators and guys around the league/media still refer to him as a goalie that "keeps you in every game". And since we're tied at the top of the division, it's hard to even point to that many points that he possibly could have "cost" us. We simply haven't had a lot of the "steals" that leave you thinking that a guy is "great".

Look at me typin' out long posts defending Price. :D

If they lose this game tonight it's all on Price... Sorry to indispose a lot of you but that's what I think.

And I'm angry right now because they are playing perfect hockey and they're still losing.

Perfect hockey is not hitting posts and missing open nets. That's called offence with no finish and no effort.

Guys are missing the BIG PICTURE... A year ago we were crap... Our system was crap... Players had no confidence in management... We'd fold like a cheap tent....
Fast forward... We ARE one of the best teams in the East... We ARE competing with the best teams in the East... If you were told we'd be 20-6-5 and have a playoff spot virtually sewn up with a MONTH left in the season... You would have given a limb... Relax .... We're going to make it to the big dance and we have a smart GM driving the bus! :)

Whether you agree with someone or not, calling people idiots is not acceptable. Any flaming from here on out will not end well.

People don't realize how lucky we are to have a goalie like Price. A lot of teams are struggling to find a #1 and here we are, complaining about a goal Price allowed to Crosby in a "breakaway".

Crosby vs Price was their best player versus our supposed best player, and their best player won.
I'm just tired of our goalie being the second best goalie on the ice 4 games out of 5.

Right now, I just don't trust Price to be the difference in the game, and strangely enough, moreso when we're dominating.

Oh and btw, Armstrong and Josh Gorges are not very good hockey players, and as good as he is finishing, Gionta creates absolutely nothing out there.
