AndyBernard Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 I had high hopes for this guy. I kinda love French-Canadian goalies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lancaster Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 He certainly had the skills to be a top-end goalie. With 9 shutouts in a season with the CBJ, that's just amazing. It's a shame that he couldn't go out on his own term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tortorella's Rant Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'm pretty sure like 50% of his body is just made up of prosthetics now. The guy was like Rick DiPietro but worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghostsof1915 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Maybe people should ease off goalies a wee bit. It's a very demanding position. You do great, and everyone loves you. Let in a soft one, the fans will crucify you. You have to be strong, flexible, have good concentration, and great reflexes. And do this for the whole length of the game. Even some pros like LeClaire and others just can't hold up to the physical demands of being a goalie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markus Alexander Cody Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I can see him being a good goalie coach somewhere in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hockeyville88 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I'll always remember him as the goalie with the candy cane looking pads lol 30 years old and unable to play hockey. That's really tough. Even as just a recreational player it is one of my greatest fears that being a goalie will take too much of a toll on my body and I'll have to quit before I'm ready to. Can't imagine what it must be like for someone like him whose entire life was based around a hockey career. And it must be especially tough because he actually had potential. It's not like he wasn't good enough to make it. Best of luck to him in whatever he does next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Dude got to play in the NHL, and made 11.4 million on his last contract. Sucks that he couldn't continue, but I'll save my pity for someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
