Confirmed Signing with Link: [OTT] G Linus Ullmark signs extension with the Ottawa Senators (4 years, $8.25M AAV)

[I Hate Philadelphia]

At some point you will have to try playing Korpisalo again.

He played last night and the Bruins won. At least he's not already injured like Ullmark.

His stats look like an extremely bad MLB pitcher.

4.57 .850

Glad you like him.

 

[Silky Johnson]

Speaking of "disappearing for long periods", why don't you have a look at Ullmark's career playoff stats?

Ok. Are you saying Ulmark isn't a good goalie? Was this your opinion when he wasn't on the Sens?

 

[KillerMillerTime]

Buyer beware I guess.

Go ahead and keep talking. You just will look more foolish in the end.

He is top 3 in NHL in +\- and top 50 in scoring also. Yeah small sample size yada, yada, yada. However no one, not even Kastelic's parents would have put $100 down on that result even 3 games in...lol.

Incidentally he was robbed by the AVS official scorer of a prinary assist last night, so it should be 6 points in 5 games.

6.96 .765

If only we had goalie "prospects" like Mads Sogaard.

He's a lot cheaper.

I like the guy. That's why all this strutting about is stupid.

He is the first average back up the Bruins have handled in 15 years. He will play his 25 games and the Bruins will survive. The contract is the issue not the player per say.

.85 WHIP is amazing. I'd look into why that pitcher gives up that many runs while barely allowing any base runners on

It’s the opposing OBA.

Korpi on the rebound. Happy for him.

His rebounds were a huge problem, yes.

His control looked pretty good last night and probably made the top 5 save of the year. Check the highlights.

I did. He has his moments, just like Kastelic. It is literally unsustainable for him to continue being decent though, as he sucks like a vacuum. Kastelic might be able to net 30 points in the end though, which is amazing.

Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

If kastelic hits over 30 points and korpi plays like he did last night. What a homerun of a deal.

 

[TheDoldrums]

Korpi with a big win in Colorado made some key saves at the end of the game. Trade looking solid for Boston so far.

Korpi was dynamite especially the last 3rd period making a few highlight Tim Thomas type saves through the game almost having a 900 save percentage game.

Korpi with a nice turn around game last night.

Korpi on the rebound. Happy for him.

actually had to laugh out loud when I realized you keep making redundant posts about how great korpisalo is after a .880 SV% game

 

[SpezDispenser]

I mean...sure. If we have a real goalie out of it, you can happily think of the deal as a homerun. I've never seen a worse goaltender in Ottawa in my life and if I never have to see him suit up again here, then it's an immediate win.

Kastelic, I'm unfazed by. Doubt he continues at a 150 point pace, but you never know!

Anybody live in Woodbridge that can check on The don godfather's wellbeing?

Make him an offer he can’t refuse ? I think Korpisalo will be okay as a backup ; insulated by the Bruin d system .

I'll assure his boy protection from being massacred.

So far, so....adequate?

The way sens fans portrayed him as a train wreck before trade was not accurate. Maybe the sens D failed him. Hes looking ok to me so far. Played well last night. Its early but I'm liking what I'm seeing here from him and kastelic .

 

[ON3M4N]

Korpisalo had a better 2nd game for the Bruins. Money puck has Korpisalo with an expected goals against of 8 and he's given up 9 in his first two games. He's had a few bad goals, but he's also made some big saves. I think he'll be fine when all is said and done. He'll get 20-25 starts and if he can finish with a sub 3.00 GAA and a SV% in the .910% range, he'll do his job as the back-up.

This is what I think too . The system will flatter him . He’s just a year removed from that ridiculous contract signing . He was a pretty coveted guy very recently . What is his cap hit ? Boston retained no ?

He's a $3 million hit for the Bruins. I believe Ottawa retained $1 million
