Tabarnouche! The backup goalie situation

[HuGort]

If it wasn’t already, it’s clear now that MSL only trusts Montembeault to win. He seems done with Primeau. I’m not sure what HuGo thinks.

Furthermore, MSL is getting really annoyed with the whole backup goaltending issue. There was a very public spat with the press on the topic with a “Tabarnouche!” sprinkled in.

MSL is now in a fighting tooth and nail for each point mode. If you’re HuGo what do you do?

• Get a goalie outside the organization?
• Get someone in house as replacement?
• Keep Primeau to Tank?
• Primeau is a perfectly fine backup goalie?
• Play Montembeault forever?

Need something because doubt Monty can go it alone rest of season.

Surprised by collapse of Primeau. He had a good college career and outstanding WJC. Last season he had a .909% save percentage with bad defense in front of him. Looked like he was maturing, then fell apart this season. It's odd.

Primeau is the perfect tank commander.

Most fans don't care to tank...it's time that this team learn how to win.

I don't care. I want one of Schaeffer/Misa/Hagens.

This team still misses gamebreaking talent.

Don't spend good asset's on a goalie

Should have traded for askorov

 

[Miller Time]

Wouldn't be surprised to see a trade for a backup pretty quick after the trade freeze ends.

I see it more as they want to be classy and not put CP on waivers just before Christmas. After they probably will and call up someone.
