Anyone actually watching the games knows full well Ullmark has struggled on his own. He's said it himself too. He's also had some strong games where he's shown he's the guy they thought, but overall, he needs to be better.
Shot location, type and velocity tell nothing of how predictable the play is and that’s the most important part of modern goaltending.
Gotcha. Good to see he's turning it around like Ullmark appears to be. Tracking similarly on the year at this point. Talent usually wins out over time.
he has 5 out of 6 points from his last 3 starts. small sample but a recent sample. The vezina winner is still there.
Multiple number one D-men? Wow, that's news to me and I've seen some pretty homerific takes. We have one of the best young D-men in the league, who is absolutely a number one. Then a couple of decent 2nd pairing guys.
Do you have any receipts? Because I think you're full of shit.
It was probably one or two posters at most you’d expect a handful. Beyond that you may have a poster or two saying something about the ceiling a player or two may have rather than where they are right now. Nonetheless these boards routinely get a small number of extreme takes being labeled as “fans” have said. As if the small number of posters here are somehow the spokespersons for all the fans of a given team. It’s really poor form and speaks more to the intellectual dishonesty of thr poster setting up the false premise.
It's equally dumb to use these people as examples then, which the original poster did to elicit a response.
At this rate, we'll be able to flip him back at only 50% retained to get the mighty Korpisalo back. #TheCupIsOurs
He's been one of the most consistent goalies in the league over his career. Save % leader the last 5 years.
Swayman has been playing as good as Ullmark for what that’s worth. Neither of our starters as doing what they are paid to do. I liked Ullmark and thought he’d be great for you guys. But both are having awful seasons.
