Apparently wins and losses don't matter. IT's ALL about save %. It doesn't matter if you make the key saves at the right time.

I'll take a goalie that let's in 5 extra goals in a game that's already decided any day as long as he stops the puck when it matters.

Grant Fuhr made a career out of making the critical save.

So goalies don't try 100% all of the time? Miller doesn't seem too clutch anyway, the guy's playoff history is mediocre.

I personally don't see great chemistry with Sutter Vrbata and Higgins.

I honestly don't expect much this year. There still needs to be a change of core players that will take a few years

- VANTEL


We will see what the chemistry looks like once they are together.

I agree there still needs to be a a change of core players but that will most likely happen through the draft and take a couple of years to flush it self out.

No they don't. I can tell you this as a former goalie. Any goalie that says he does isn't very good to begin with or is lying.

Yup. Got my popcorn and ready for the show.

I don't mind failing when trying new things.

I said he had a good year. You were the one that elevated the discussion. It should have been a comment that was said and move on to the next comment.

I really don't have expectations good or bad for this year. It is wait and see.

- VANTEL


That's cool, didn't think it would create so much tension. I think the vast majority are in the wait and see mode.

I've said this before but if this season was anything like last, I will be very happy. I thought last year was very entertaining and at the end of the day that's all I want out of watching hockey.

Canuck fans have been in the 'wait and see mode' for 45 years now.

And looked what happened. Self-implosion. Again.

And to add insult to injury they had to lose to the bruins. I HATE all Boston area teams. Red Sox, Celtics, Bruins, and Patriots. All of them.

In canada we had this show called Seinfeld and it was really popular. People in canada have a tendency to quote it from time to time. Not many people know of it outside of canada.

Ahh yes, sarcasm. Thankfully, I was never caught up in the Seinfield phenomenon. I once saw an episode when I was 12. I intend on keeping it that way. I do my very best to steer clear of overhyped sitcoms.

Pretty even. Nice goal by Fox good second effort.

Bad shift change caused 2 nd goal for CGY.

Shink JV look good. The face puncher had a good fight. 2 nd in 3 games against big boys.

Goaltending solid.

Actually it's probably going to go down as one of the top 5 sitcoms in TV history. Do yourself a favor and snag all the seasons on DVD at a garage sale somewhere. You won't be sorry. Many things are overhyped...Seinfeld wasn't one of them.
