It's a team game.

 

The team in front of him went AWOL

Halak also needs to have some of those, cmon...getting scored on 3 times in 30 seconds is not NHL level goaltending, not even AHL level. Plus we are missing Hughes, our #1 D so the goalie needs to make saves

ok but if you have to rely on your goalie that much and as often as they do that would suggest we have issues on this team.

we do have issues, our D is paper thin and half of them are waiver fodder or AHLers like Hunt, Juulsen etc. They need to retool that D through trades.

I mean half our regular D was out tonight if you wanna look at facts.

 

Having Hughes, Hamonic, and Poolman make a big difference.

 

Myers has been really solid for us but I’m not sure he’s your every day 26 minute D man.

12 shots in a period isn't horrible, average would be about a 1 goal, 5 goals on 12 shots is just unreal, even if you get .800% goaltending that's far below the leauge average while still having a chance to win

No team is ever going to win if their goaltender has an .540 sv% 

Yep as poor as the team was, look at what Sorokin did in the second when the Isles stopped playing.

 

He made numerous grade A saves to keep the Canucks from tying it up.

 

Not putting all the blame on Halak but he needs to make a couple of those saves. Keep it to even three in the first and we have a chance to win that game.
