Kurt Nirvanagut Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Eddie Lack isn't even good enough to be a backup in 2017. He has zero confidence and should return to Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 He has a .813 save percentage in 4 games. And was even worse in the preseason! Lack is so done. Great guy, but not even a remotely good goalie anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust you excel at all things in your life thus entitling you to be able to call some of the best hockey players in the world, people like Eddie Lack, a "joke". I assume your level of athletic achievement includes many years as a professional in order for you to have this dismissive attitude. Yup, very hilarious. Thanks for the personal attack. I hope you get showered with reps from all of your friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a personal attack to call you out for calling Eddie Lack a joke? I think you need a new dictionary or perhaps are unfamiliar with the term "irony". Nothing personal here at all from me, simply standing up for a professional hockey player someone has taken a cheap shot at from their basement. If you feel this is personal, perhaps you are realizing your own sense of guilt over your attack on Eddie Lack. One can hope you have that level of decency.

I have every right to criticize someone who is paid millions to play a game. My money is indirectly funneled into his pocket when I buy tickets and Centre Ice, ect. I find it offensive that you assume I’m a fat slob sitting in my basement. You base this judgment only because my opinion is different than yours and it’s unfortunate that you are that judgmental. It was nothing more than a dry humoured sarcastic remark. Why does that deserve me being labeled as a loser in a basement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanuck Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 51 minutes ago, Rob_Zepp said: I would like Vancouver to pick him up. He is a really good goalie with zero confidence and has lacked proper goalie coaching since he left the Vancouver organization. Just as Markstrom and Thor have shown what Canuck goalie coaching can do (Demko as well), having another solid veteran with Demko to improve the odds of an AHL team that competes just makes sense. It would take a few maneuvers but if he goes unclaimed, Canucks should consider this IMHO as like Dmen, you cannot have too many good goalies in your system. Can Utica afford to have 3 goalies on their roster - aren't they already running into 'veteran' issues down there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cramarossa Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Amazing. Hope he clears. He'll add nicely to the collection of Canucks cast-offs on my local farm team! -Cramarossa -Glass -Robak (Utica) -Shinkaruk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yah, they would have to do some juggling for sure. I am not sure how the vet quota thing works with goalies - never gave AHL rules a lot of thought in my own life (Europe was a better option lol).

While it's a shame that Lack is on waivers, there's really no point for Canucks to pick him up. That ship has sailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His experience in Carolina was pretty awful to say the least, imo he was treated pretty badly by that coach. Is there a way for us to get him to Utica though? I thought he had to stay up on the 23 man roster or is it just a matter of offering him to the league first? I'd prefer Eddie down there over Bachman for next year.
