Take a bow Elmer! You’ve managed to hamstring the roster with 30 million dollars of garbage.
No chance Seattle takes Holtby off their hands. There’s another 4.3 million on the cap for the new GM to deal with. Looks like an AHL goalie.
Our contingent of atrocious veteran forwards on outrageously bad contracts really makes it hard to compete. Just look at Winnipeg's bottom six and then compare that to ours. Scary.
But we knew this going in, we hoped for the best like good fans do but we're getting smacked around most nights.
"We’ve got to be able to create more chances. More direct, simple plays. We weren’t doing enough for 60 minutes and 3rd period obviously we didn’t create enough." - Pettersson
“We need to win, we’re not in a position to split a two-game series. We have to win games right now, we want to be in the playoffs and we’re on the outside looking in. We’re not in a position to not bring our best. No excuses, we need to be better.” - Miller
Braden Holtby: I have to make those stops tonight. That's about as simple as it gets.
--Braden Holtby: We've put ourselves in a spot where we need every game, and that's the mentality we need to have.
Travis Green: We lost way too many puck battles tonight. We were a little bit too soft when we had the puck, and that was the difference in the game.
-- Travis Green: We're not a team that's probably going to score our way through a game. We've gotta play a solid game in all areas. Winnipeg was harder on the puck than us, harder in the 1on1 battles...Individually, we had some players that didn't play as good as they did last night.
--Travis Green: I didn't think our game structurally was as sound as it was last night, but their team had a say in it. Their team played a better game. Our team played a weaker game.
--Travis Green: I'm frustrated tonight.
And if I really had the choice, I would have gone with Markström.
But sure, two-three years down the line Demko will almost certainly be the better option.
And it is customary to continue to ride a goalie who has posted a shutout.
