Confirmed with Link: Walman and a 2nd Round Pick traded to SJ

[FriendlyGhost92]

It was both. Husso let in a couple of easy goals. The guy was not good (as per usual). You get a .866 Sv% by playing well

I don't deny Husso blows.

I also don't get why we're bitching about Husso after plays like Holl coughing up the puck in the crease or Gustafsson being an even worse version of his typical shitty self or Copp wandering all the way over to the boards to join the other three Wings on a PK and completely abandoning the right side.

Or even Kasper abnormally just completely checking out of the play effort-wise, and looking like a deer in headlights.

Even with a good goalie we lose that game due to downright atrocious defense from the usual suspects.

According to posters here, you mean the 11 games he has been healthy scratched for.

He was only healthy scratched for one of them.

Hronek's been healthy screatched 21 times this season too

Husso wouldn't be that bad if he'd make some big saves, sometimes. His issue is that he lets in soft goals on top of not making the big saves to keep this team in games.

We never should have used Husso period. This was the perfect opportunity to give Cossa his first start against a bottom feeder team.

Yah the bottom pair played like shit but they do that every game. Our goalie needs to make a stop as needed. That second goal was awful he raised his pad and it went right under it.

Yeah. Would've loved to insert Cossa into that lineup where the defense looked like shit and hung the goalie out to dry. That'd be great for a young goalie's confidence.

I agree with all of the above except the idea that we outright lose with a good goalie.

With a good goalie we might have stolen a point, maybe 2 in OT. A good goalie would have given the team enough of a chance to come back from a 1 goal deficit and probably wouldn't have immediately given the lead back to the opponent.

In that particular game, I don't see us winning.

The effort was absolutely atrocious. Or when they did try to backcheck, it was to completely abandon coverage and leave guys wide open.

The overall point, which one guy didn't get because he just goes into an apparent blind rage over the mention of the name Husso, is that Husso does suck... But we still played like shit and lost that game even if Husso doesn't suck. It's not just a case of "Well we would've won if an NHL goalie was in net rather than that worthless sack of shit" like one genius would like to portray it as.
