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.
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.
Gionta's finish is mediocre at best.
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.
come mt you better of said something spicy !!!
We're outshooting the pens 2to1 but we're losing by a goal.
Trade Price, Bouillon and DD are crap, we need heavyweight enforcers, no way this team as the slightest chance to make something happen in the PO.
Relax the hockey gods didn't give us the good bounces tonight thats all. End of story.
I would put DD on the 3rd to start the period. Pac-Eller-Gally should be tried out for a decent length of time.
I have no doubt he keeps us in games.. but I never feel safe in a close game with him because he seems to give up one poor goal per game (hasn't this game).Totally granted.
