Barkov, what a move.
Look at the replay. Andersen went down before barking even looked up. Why?
Seriously, man, your opinion of Andersen is so far off the mark it's a laughable.
Well, I disagree. To take the next step as an organization you can’t have a goalie that is usually second best in the contest.
I get that you are extra pissed off because Andersen didn't beat BOS last game and didn't in G7 last spring. I'm disappointed too about that. And I agree that Andersen needs to win some playoff series for us to be considered as a top-flight goalie. But the stats, the style of play (calm in the net), and last but not least the W-L record all point toward a very good goalie who's a good fit for a team whose D-corps is not elite. He's far and away the best chance we've had to go far when it counts at least since Belfour.
None of this is untrue. Problem is, if it’s a game 7 or a division game that decides playoff position it seems more than likely that Andersen will give up 4 plus goals. Of course I’m being harsh, I don’t disagree. But there is room for improvement.
What’s been frustratin these past two weeks is that everyone has been defending Andersen to the nth degree. This in a stretch where he has given up 4 or more goals in 3 of 6 and 3 or more goals in 5 of 6. His GAA since Dec 1 has been 3.5. He has struggled lately.
I haven't been defending him. #TeamAndersenNeedsToBeBetter

And enough of the Freddie bashing please. It's ridiculous. He won't be the best goalie on the ice every game. That's impossible. If it wasn't for him we'd be fighting for a wildcard spot, not be top 5 in the league. The team is a but out of sync since Nylander came back. It will come but it's going to take time.
Yeah they're in their 4th chunk funk just like last season they'll turn it around at some point. Just frustrating to lose to the bottom team in the conference

We'll see in June
We'll see if Dubas shores up this defence because it isn't good enough and won't be come playoff time. Hainsey on your top pair and top Pker is all you need to know about the state of our D. He should be on the 3rd pairing.
I hate to say it but Kapanen may have to go to make that happen. Or Kadri maybe.
I know but hoping it would be a Johnsson, 1st rounder and top prospect like Lilypad maybe. If it takes Kadri I think they have to do it. We need a partner for Reilly and a guy like Parayko would fit the bill.

? If we are playing in June he'll have answered the question.
Barney will get the reference. Quote from Cujo after he left the Leafs for the Wings and was asked if he thought he made the right decision. "we'll see in June" he said.

Well we'd have Florida's record if that were true. Jussayin.
