Great picture and adds to my point. If hes not so far away from the play to begin with the puck doesnt need to leave the zone.

Appreciate the honest feedback. I still think you guys have way too much firepower to stay down for the whole season. Here another one. Back at the draft, did most of you want Nolan or Nico? I wanted Nolan..

It was pretty split to be honest. I also wanted Nolan.

Is it fair to say JVR scores in close but he tends to go up when he is in tight ???

Do you need the complete video breakdown? That screen shot is when he had full possession of the puck, the turnover took place right before center ice. No bobbling, just slowly looked at Provorov while skating towards his end.

Why he didn't turn and make the safe play? I don't know you have to ask him, obviously he knew he made a mistake when he apologized to Hart. Justifying he had no chance to make a play is silly.

He should be on the first PP. Hes one of the best at going up high when in tight.

I think teams learned a long time ago that Simmonds cant do it. Goalies can just worry about the bottom half of the net.

Sorry I misunderstood what you meant by being in fine position...you meant fine position to keep puck in. I thought you meant fine position to not turn over puck.

Again proof he can skate and give effort, but clearly doesn't most of the time. That's my problem with him. JvR knows it, the team knows it, the fans know it and the announcers know it, but everyone just shrugs and goes "what to do?".

Notice his goal had nothing to do with who his center is?

Before hart, whenever the other team would press in the O ZONE I would assume they would score, now, not as much.

At least it is easier to watch with Hart.

20 years old, still has A LOT of growing to do and will give up stinkers like everyone else, but I get a warm feeling when he is playing. Looking forward to the Hart Era, now only if the rest of the team joins in with some.

It is ridiculous to expect a goalie to save them all. Our offense needs to kick it in gear. Our shot quality is so sad (JVR goal aside).

I know that's why I have realistic expectations and still find it exciting to watch.
