Player Discussion Sam "Dikembe" Montembeault

[Tyson]

How? He played on a team that finished dead last, and then 5th last x2.

Jake and Primeau helped with the tank

Wasn't a true question. I just think it's insane. He played 41 and 40 games (+2 this year). Allen was so bad.

The boys trust him.

I think between Allen and Primeau they were like 29-48

Stolarz is 30 on his 6th team but he is playing good hockey. Primeau should mature. At least another Charlie Lindgren

I don't see Montembeault in Four Nations Cup. After first 2 or 3 games I thought he was a lock. Hill and Billington better choice. Unless one goes down to injury. Then it's between Montemayor and Skinner

The "competition" for Canada's goalies has been disgusting so far this season. Out of the top 5 guys usually mentioned before the start of the season (Binnington, Hill, Jarry, Skinner & Montembeault) only Binnington and Monty have save % over .900.

Hill has a .878, Skinner .872 and Jarry has a laughable .836 (despite winning against the Habs). Another guy who I thought might be a darkhorse in Connor Ingram has a .868 save %.

With all the other guys struggling I think Montembeault still has a solid chance to be in the top 3 if he has a strong November. Also Talbot has been consistent so he's likely playing himself into the mix.

 

[Habs]

Is it in Pesos? If so good deal

Hopefully Sammy is lights out tonight against Seattle

The state of Canadian goaltending is sickening and needs federal intervention

It's down league wide though. I did little research. Save percentage this season .897%. lowest it's been since 1993-94. Around 31 years ago.

This is very very very sad goalie landscape for Canada. You know, we used to he Roy, Brodeur, Price... and now? Bleah.

Eddie ****ing Belfour in plain clothes as the #3 in 2002. Luongo coming off the bench ice cold for Brodeur in the 2004 World Cup semis. It is sad, man

Yeah that ain't happening

Red light Monty

Hard to believe same guy who stood on his head against Toronto and Ottawa

Weird right?

 

[Skip Bayless]

He's still suspect to me.

I tried boys, I tried, but he's not the man.

Gotta agree. Fowler can't get here soon enough.

[The Gr8 Dane]

He was so pissed when he got pulled

Not really. Average to just slightly above average athletes, in all sports, are not able to consistently maintain the highest level of performance. That's what makes them not quite elite.

 

[BLONG7]

Should have been after the 2nd goal...................giving the other team a 4 spot, in two seperate games, before the game is 10 minutes old, is just plain brutal

In the words of Torts, a save now and then would be nice.

Gotta agree. Fowler can't get here soon enough.

Dobes........also.
