Our 2 goalies combined are making 4 mill or so. An average to good goalie in the NHL makes 5 or more. A real good elite goalie makes 8 to 10.

Why are we surprised we get shitty goaltending?

There isn’t a goalie in the NHL making $4m or less that could stop those goals.

There’s nothing George could’ve done.
We’ll get few games of good goaltening followed by more games of bad goaltending and it will be all year because that’s what our goalies are. They are cheap and inconsistent goalies. If we want a better goalie we have to trade for one and pay more money period

That problem is that their playing worse than shit. These numbers are Shit++.
Yeah because that’s what they are. It’s not like we got Vasilevskiy who’s playing bad. We got cheap inconsistent goalies. We get what we pay for
