Pre-Game Talk: Week of Feasts and Shopping (@TB, VGK, @Dal, Edm)

Probably skates faster than Landeskog.

Do either of them have the capacity to skate anymore?

 

[LOFIN]

Cheeks tonight.

I'm kinda shocked

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I'm kinda shocked

Same, since that means he's going to play at least 2 games this week, because of the B2B

 

[BobRossColton]

Are we even sure about that?

George needs to go play in a beer league game nearby and then rush into the net having given up his customary one or two early goals already.

Just have a mighty mites game before the puck drop with him in net. The little ones will get it done.

 

[sethro109]

WTF? I guess Moose had a good week.

 

[RECKLESS]

WTF? I guess Moose had a good week.

No he's dogshit and we're overdue trading him.

Ismo approves!!

Kurely after the Panthers game, Bednar will give Kylington another go against the Lightning.

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Our goalies have a combined .872 sv% this year.


That is honestly one of the craziest stats ever. The fact we're above .500 with those goalies is simply an unbelievable testament to how good the rest of the team is.

Per Naturalstattrick if you do all situations our SV% is an 85.46... 1.94% worse than 31st and our HDSV% is 3% worse than 31%.

All while were 10th best in HDCF% and 3rd best in SCF%. Absolute insanity.

That’s where the problem is. CMac probably still believes Avs have a good enough team to win with cheap goaltending tendem like Georgiev and Annunen and he’s hesitant to spend more money on a goalie, otherwise he would have traded for one already. This team is throwing away points because of bad goaltending on most of the losses they’ve had this season so far

Apparently not. And IMO that was a bad move, though it ain't like Kylington would've made a difference in an Kendrick-on-Drake level ass-beating.

 

[Balthazar]

I'd like to know the combined SV% of the goalies from the opposite teams when the Avs play them. It's probably much lower than we expect.

.886 SV% combined

That really puts things in perspective isn't it?

Our goalies have a combined .872 sv% this year.

[RoyIsALegend]

Of 75 goaltenders in the NHL who have played at least 3 games, we have the 2nd and 12th worst in terms of GSAx.

I present to you the worst goaltending tandem in the National Hockey League.

Reminder; we allow the third least amount of shots against in the league. We defy logic and still let everything in.

 

[expatriatedtexan]

I really disliked that dude that held up the Trade Girard sign. In fact, everytime someone posts it, I find his face more and more punchable. And I am not suggesting that someone holds up a sign about either of goalies specifically. But it's past damn time to start seeing some signs in Ball Arena questioning the GM or advertising some of the goalie stats.

I know CMac knows this is not good enough. But nothing like getting the press and fans to start seriously discussing the issue to get the GM to actually become incentivized enough to do something sooner. Yeah, it might cost more, but dude...it's not an option. We must have a better goalie. Full Stop.

Have we lost the up coming game vs. Vegas yet?
