Maybe that's why we don't follow him so much, because he's still a few years away? How long did we wait for Schnieder? We had a pretty solid blueline back in those days where Schneider often had Salo #5 on the depth chart. Demko could have Poo (if Benning re-signs him) as the #5. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artemchubarov Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Looked shaky this season. Wonder if he's overhyped or just utilized wrong, like Green did with a lot of players in his AHL days. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if he's overhyped or just utilized wrong, like Green did with a lot of players in his AHL days. He looked 'shakey' playing his 2nd and 3rd NHL game after multiple long injury layoffs. Shocking. His last four or five games he looked quite good and better each game. All he needs is to stay healthy and get play time.

I'd trade Markstrom for a couple seconds right now. Clearly Demko is going to take that starter job this coming season. He's ready, and he's great! Oh, Leafs and Flames SUCK, because they have crappy goal-tending!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't looked good today against Great Britain but he's still the better option over Schneider 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven't qualified Poo before (last season) and still re-signed him. Never say never. Regardless, still doesn't change the fact we don't have four top 4 D let alone 5 back in the Luongo/Schneider days.

Terrible move by GMJB Wow. He had a .911 SV% in Utica which improved to .913 SV% in NHL and would have been well over .920 if not for a return from injury game. This is an elite NHL ready netminder. Wow. Edited May 17, 2019 by Rob_Zepp Had to add another Wow given nature of the "Terrible Move" comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
