    I could see Silovs pulling out a W tonight.

     

    Reality is though, none of the NHL teams have a solid scouting report on him. If he were up with the big club for the rest of the season teams will get a scouting report. Similar to Martin last year.. no one had a scouting report. Now he is getting exposed for his weakness (over commitment on cross ice passes and challenging the shooter too much).

     

    Silovs may show well and management might consider him as the backup next season.. but he needs to marinate longer in the A for one more year atleast.

    I would love him to get the win, or at worst a 2-1 close loss. Demko is apparently likely for the next game vs philly so i'd like demko/delia to take it the rest with close tank games. I do worry that demko will reinjure and they'd keep silovs up and then he'll start wearing tank losses when i think abbostford is better for him to develop this year.

     

    So many good top 5 prospects, i value those more than demko getting confidence back in a lost season as next season is a whole new thing anyway.

    the most interesting thing there is that there wasn't a single euro goalie start prior to irbe in, what, '97? almost 30 straight years of exclusively north american 'tenders (granted, when did euro goalies first start coming over? '80s?). fascinating. 

    i think there have been only 6 latvian goalies too and now 3 will have started for the canucks

    Can we settle for a 1-0 loss, with the goal coming on delayed penalty?
    With Silovs on the bench and the net empty, OEL rips it top shelf on his own net.

    That works.

    I have no idea how to pronounce his last name. Si-loves seems too easy. Shill-of?
