The people that do like him can be objective about a player beyond what was given up for him

Unlike you who writes with pure emotions and not facts

You say it's not one of the deepest but how many people are in the NHL In the 2015 draft ?

Funny the same thing I have been harping on since the Lehner bashing started.

He is not getting goal support. Hasek got .41 goals a game more from those Sabres teams he carried for the 90's
- Stripes77

Take your facts and GTFO!!!

At 34 you would think he would at least have 2 more good years left in the tank but maybe the years of being the work horse is getting to him, other than the lock out shortened year which he played 43 out of 48 games he has never played less than 60 games until 2014-2015 when he got hurt
- Stripes77

Would have thought so too but you could be right and its just the number of GP finally getting to him.

They better let his ass go Or trade him

I definitely don't want to lose Cal
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Cal hasn't proven jack poop yet. I think he has a ton of potential, but the NHL is a completely different animal. He needs time to prove he's a better option, because as of right now, we have no idea if he's better or not.

Its the colour that really got me too

The bright colors are so much better. Even more-so now with HDTV. That's what I loved about the 40th anniversary ones. That blue is amazing on TV.

We're playing a defense first style

And he still lets in 3 goals a game

No people are mad because you gave up a first round pick in the 2015 draft which was one of the deepest that's why .. He threw how many first round picks away ?

-And he gives up three goals in the game
- and he sucks on shootouts

- people like him because he can punch people in the face
- GERBE!!!75PTS

the trade is over.. whats done is done.. additional cliche about things being over. you need to get over what was given up and objectively look at the player. you will realize he isn't the problem. This is getting to the point where we were when Jack ECHL was terrible because he didn't score a goal in the first 20 games.

Would have thought so too but you could be right and its just the number of GP finally getting to him.
- Sabresfan-365

I wonder if there's some sort of small nagging injury that we haven't heard about. It wouldn't surprise me.

I would rather let robin walk and sign a cheap UFA then lose Cal

And so does Nilsson. Do you actually watch the games? Because the majority of the goals that are getting scored are because the team in front of the goalie has a total and complete meltdown.

Well, you also do a lot of other dumb things, so it doesn't surprise me.

- HonkFortheGoose

Goalies can look good because of the system around them or they can look bad because of it.. we have very little play from Cal outside of UND to assess his game. I am not throwing Lehner away because he has promise

yea they're pretty easy on the eyes. the grey armpit on these jerseys is killing me on the inside though

- GERBE!!!75PTS

Your reading comprehension is getting worse and worse.

Take the stupid trade out of it and look at the goalie and his numbers

- HonkFortheGoose

They keep playing him as often as they do and we'll hear about it when it sidelines him for months.

LOUD NOISES

We're playing a defense first style

And he still lets in 3 goals a game
- GERBE!!!75PTS

Not since Eichel's return they aren't.

They were playing a defensive style game and Robins save percentage was at .930 at the time.

And so does Nilsson. Do you actually watch the games? Because the majority of the goals that are getting scored are because the team in front of the goalie has a total and complete meltdown.
- HonkFortheGoose

You guys are making way too much excuses up for this goaltender I understand that they have bad days and get screamed but he lets in three goals a game how do you expect to win games with that ?

LOUD NOISES

I'm not screaming

- HonkFortheGoose

Just take his namesake alone - was a great player in college, performed great in the AHL...is now 25-30 point NHLer.

Those high-producing years yielded a 3rd liner...yippee?

Petersen has a .922 Save % this season in ND

- HonkFortheGoose

Not a fan of those (other than the writing on the front). The geometric BS in the names and numbers (I think it was both? Could be wrong, but point stands...) were god awful

- GERBE!!!75PTS

You're delusional...

What excuses?

You say one thing others come back with facts to prove you wrong and you can't handle it

Not since Eichel's return they aren't.

- Stripes77

They definitely play a defensive style games though they don't go lose
That rarely happens and then everyone gets this hope factor when the coach stops that

- GERBE!!!75PTS

they are only scoring 2.26 goals per game.. how do you expect them to with that.

You're delusional...

- Stripes77

You can use your eyes he lets in 3 a game like I said I understand things happen but come on happens way too much with him
