There is a pall. There is a black cloud overhead, the stink of a bad tank that won't go away. Brought in by a careless and clueless owner at the helm.
UPL is the least likely of the three goalies to make the big save, but I do agree that there is something hanging over this team. They score a goal to get back in it, and then they give one up in the next minute.
I do not know if they work as hard as other teams in practice. As a group they seem to expect to lose. The lose just about every challenge as well.
This thread is about goalies - Levi toils in Rochester because he has not progressed this year. They bring him up right now he will fail.
Levi and Kulich are the compensation for Reinhart. Tuch, Krebs, Greenway and Östlund are the compensation for Eichel. It has been years and none of this worked.
Levi may never make it. Tuch appears to be expiring in Buffalo. Krebs and Greenway should be moved on from.
Terry cannot turn another rebuild over to Adams and Ruff is not teaching them or helping. They are both spent.
