Tampa had to start a no name goalie and he gave up five goals on seventeen shots. Even a great team can’t win with terrible goaltending
Is there a good goalie shortage?
Well, I believe the point is, that you can’t say it’s the coaching change that is making the difference. Or Samson moving to center.
Our goaltending was THE problem.
I don’t know about what others teams will offer him. That Colorado would actually trade for JJ makes me wonder if it’s going to be a sellers market for goalies this year. Maybe there is a good reason KA couldn’t find of decent backup before this season. Linus at 28 could easily get a five year offer. And we are screwed if he walks.
Tampa Bay started some guy in goal named Christopher Gibson and was destroyed by the lowly Red Wings today. Gibson is a journeyman goalie drafted in 2011 with only 15 or so starts in the NHL
