Fair enough. But no matter how bad the defence is and how the game ‘feels’, he can’t learn what these situations are like in the AHL. Sure he has let in some goals, but he’s also made a lot of saves. He looks good out there, and is gonna learn a ton from this game. im sure if this really was a bad idea, Ian Clarke would not have let it happen. Goalie coaches are angry, angry people.

Yea sure but there’s more going on there. When is the right time to bring in a rookie goalie to get a look at what it like in the NHL? When we are a contender? When we are a middling team? Martin needs to get his game back Delia needs a reset. Silovs needs some experience at the top level. It’s 1 or 2 games. He will be fine and learn so much from this. look at the zibanajed goal. hell, I learnt something just watching that.

I disagree man, as a goalie myself you want to be put in these positions. You need to know what the next level is like. you need to know what level you are at compared to where you want to be. This is a good team vs a bad team and whoever is in net will not change that. he will learn so much from this game and be a better goalie for it in the long run.

Can we just leave Miller in Pittsburgh after the game? Hell, let’s just send him over to their bench beforehand. Maybe he will give a lazy backcheck for Bo’s 30th of the year.

What the heck just happened

Is Boeser playing?

Brutal

Maybe Rutherford and Alvin are just waiting till we get this to 999 pages? Then they will pull the trigger forcing @-Vintage Canuck- to make a new thread and leaving us all in disappointment of not making it to 1000.

Yea they are easy to tell apart. One is good at hockey and the other is Henrik

Dany > Hank there I said it fight me

Kia Kaha!

Do something tonight please. Anything. Please?

Exactly, making mistakes is how we learn. The OPs argument is. Rutherford was bad before he was good so he must still be bad.

This is a weak argument.. Give the man some credit, he has 3 cups. That’s 3 more than any of us have. Opportunities arise out of the situations that unfold before us. Sure he’s made some questionable moves, but so has every GM in the league. Sometimes it’s the moves that you don’t make that can get you to the top. Going back into the past and dealing in ‘IFs’ is a dangerous way of thinking. IF you change one aspect of the past you have to change everything. IF the Oilers had their starting goalie in the finals…… IF someone else had inherited that Penguins team….. IF we drafted Jagr IF we didn’t hit the post in 94 IF Luc Bourdon hadn’t passed on IF we didn’t have so many injuries in 2011 IF Luongo’s contract didn’t suck see where I’m going here? Maybe IF some of these situations unfolded then maybe we wouldn’t be such a bitter fan base.
