Rumor: Zach Fucale NHL comeback?

[Jumptheshark]

Currently in the K..Curious to know why he wants to come home

Craig Button is horny after seeing this news. #Top5

Sure you don't mean Dick Button?

 

[SannywithoutCompy]

I'd take him over Primeau...

I'd take a shooter tutor over Primeau at this point

Last name doesn’t end in wood, Colorado is out.

fucales are algae & seaweed, its wood adjacent

Sharks will have an opening to play with Askarov next year. Could see them taking a chance here.

 

[Frank Drebin]

Well if it isn’t the next Carey Price!

I remember big big hype around him when he was very young, 14/15 years old

 

[Jack Spider]

He was a top Canadian goalie prospect in the Canadiens pipeline during Price's prime, They have the same face, style-ish and beauty. You can see footage of them in the pre season they look like the same guy sitting next to each other in the dressing room, I though Fucale was gonna be a star.

@Kairi Zaide congrats

Dick button is a great term for a condom that’s too small

 

[Coffee]

He’s going to shock a lot of people once he’s back

Wow. I never knew that. Of course the issue never applied to me. It wasn't the condom that was ever too small!

I was more thinking of the old time figure skater and analyst

 

[mattef]

what happened to him, at one point he was the next great goaltender from canada

I never really got it tbh. He was the product of a stacked team in front of him. MacK, Drouin, Weegar, even Meier, Ehlers... even in juniors he dropped as soon as Mac and Drouin were gone

 

[Dutronc]

He’s going to shock a lot of people once he’s back

I think so. I have a bet on that with an old friend of mine.

 

[miscs75]

Colorado should get the gang back together. They already have Drouin and Nate.

Are his numbers even really that good? The KHL has a lot of goalies with very high save percentages. 25 goalies have at least a .916 and even Fucale is only 14th with his .924.

KHL goalie stats are inflated af look at Koskinen

I've never followed the KHL for even a single minute in my life thus far, but just confirming - is the KHL a low-scoring league that's "goalie-friendly"?

 

[HuGort]

Fucale always did have a lot of grit.

Lol not sure if that's a compliment to him or a detriment to what Vanecek and Georgiev have become. Could see Grier take a flier though, no harm in getting a medium-reward asset.

I think the Sharks will keep an open mind about who they want to pair up with Askarov going into what will be his first full time NHL season is all.

Seems like it.
