I doubt this is the game that gets Vitek waived. Especially with his SHAM of a game against Colorado where he made all these saves to mask the two soft goals he allowed in the 3rd period to tie that game.
It feels like there’s already been about 5 or 6 “This is it! This is the end of Vitek!” Games since December. The first Tampa game at least put him on the bench for much of the several weeks after. Actually, I think it may have even been the second game against Boston around new years that did that.
At the very most, we may be back to him getting the bench more often than not or Daws fares okay against Carolina. But even then there’s a back to back set right after that one.
The beginning of the end was last April, even though we didn’t know it yet. This is like a character that’s in a coma for almost an entire season of a TV series, before finally slipping away after it being long overdue. And after it’s been spoiled all over the place that the character will finally be out of the series.
We should be so lucky if tonight was the end of the Vitek experience.
The Sharks have two players with a worse +/- than Timo’s -25. Our all time worst is -44. Let’s see if he can break a record.
The Sharks also have two goalies better than worthless Vanecek.
And one of them is Blackwood……
And I badly need four showers, three teeth brushings and two flossings after digesting such sad filth.
