anytime a goalie is over .92 save % for 2 straight years, the conversation shifts to north of 5 per IMO

f anderson got 5 per with worse numbers

- homiedclown

I'd bet he's under .920 by years end. They have been scored on a lot lately.

Oh and I was down 34 last night with only Kelce to go. I won

I believe he finishes the year between 0.9275 and 0.930.

I hate the flipping style, and I have heart attacks every time there's a scramble, but he saves a lot of pucks.

And for that, I give him $8/M over 3 yrs.

Buffalo has attempted just 1,372 shots for at even strength this season.
That puts them ahead of only Colorado (1,292), Detroit (1,307) and New Jersey (1,336). It's believed that this is a product of coach Dan Bylsma's system because in his final two seasons with Pittsburgh the team ranked 22nd in shot attempts. After Byslma's departure, the Penguins have been in the top 10 and currently sit second overall in five-on-five attempts for this season.

We have top flight owner, need Ralph Krueger as top flight coach, then we can get a better idea of what we do, and do not have.

his base is 3.1 this year, aav of 2.225. im thinking its closer to 3 yrs 9-10. its still not bad. i think thats part of why murray targeted him, cost control.

i have a one year old and dont get to see nearly enough games, and rob ray is absolutely horrific trying to explain the game if i listen on the radio ("just look at the replay...")- ITS THE RADIO, IT LOOKS LIKE MY PHONE. if somebody would care to make the point that our defense is severely limiting our offense, because the trade market is absolutely ridiculous for anything resembling a competent second pair defenseman, im all ears. it sounds like we try to limit quality scoring chances while not doing a great job of puck retrieval in our own end, then the forwards are not set up for anything resembling a respectable zone entry. so we try to win games by scoring on the power play- which may or may not include jack eichel, but probably includes derek grant.

Is evander Kane a piece that will be staying? Or is a move best for him? I wouldn't be apposed to taking a flier on him. Whats the cost? Thought I heard he was being shopped.

murray thought kulikov was enough

yandle, goligoski was out there
murray did not go after their rights


we had all those picks last summer, hamilton was out there



we lucked out that mccabe turned out to be a fringe top pair d man

murray chose to round out his d corps with bogo, franson, kulikov, and gorges
