Primeau is terrible -1.5 per game 5v5 vs expected.

We have a 27 years old 6ft4 goalie who is .935 in the A, keep Dobes there so he gets more volume, call up Hughes, send down Primeau.

Primeau doesn’t get claim 100%c, and if he does, who cares
Right. The Primeau experiment has lasted long enough.

Monty's last 5 games: 107 saves on 114 SOG for a .939 SV%
He isn't a vezina calibre guy, but his numbers are being affected by shoddy D.

Monty has shown he can be lights out, but can he stay dialed in game-to-game? I think he can keep improving his consistency, and if the team is turning the corner defensively, it should help swing things.

I don't think he can be a workhorse #1 a-la Hellebuyck or prime-Price
But he can work in a #1A-B sortof configuration.
Hellebuyck becomes HellYaISuck in the playoffs because he's fatigued.

I don't know what happened, but you can't have a goalie play 60+ games now.

I was listening to the team 1200 and they were talking about how Brodeur didn't really get hurt until he started working out/late in his career..

We need some fat f***s to man the net and a dude with the nickname "Snacks" sounds promising

Montembeault .906% save percentage playing behind our defense. Put him on Team Canada you get quality netminding. Playing behind Makar, Pietrangelo, Theodore, Morrisey, Toews.

Same thing happened at the World Championships 2 seasons ago, Monty was a key piece of that Gold medal team.
