playing 50 games is different from consistently playing 50 games well though

Every goalie gunna have some bad games. All of those goalies that have played 50 so far are pretty consistent.

Grubauer is the only one under a .900sv% and you could probably account that to the team he's played on... Kraken stink

Ironically, if Cal had waited two years (perfect AHL seasoning) the crease most likely would have been his.

Levi is 3 years away. Sign or trade for the goalie.

As always, perhaps it's more than opportunity. Maybe he saw the future and liked the way LA looked. Or weather. Family. Lifestyle. Who knows. And who cares. See ya, d1ck.

they have no 'need' to move him. not at this point at least. He's been honestly good this year, I don't think they're paying anyone to take him. imo.

He's unequivocally made them a worse team. He has been thee worst goalie in the league, hands down.

To think they're concerned with how their goaltending prospects perceive signing a quality NHL goaltender for say 3 or 4 seasons when they could not get either goaltending prospect to sign this offseason when the position is wide ass open is mind numbing.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to go back to compete. We as fans hate it of course. But they all have their reasons and may or may not have anything to do with eventually wanting to be here.

Sure, and they could also be doing what Cal Petersen and others have done.

And we must placate their feelings just in case they feel like being here, whenever that may be.

USS The Sullivans is sinking... listing badly to port side, side below waterline

https://www.wivb.com/news...n-with-uss-the-sullivans/


“There is no chance that the ship is actually going to sink,” the Naval Park President vows.

Still, it is listing badly as they try to quickly pump out water. Update ahead on @news4buffalo at noon. https://twitter.com/Chris...tatus/1514615500654796803.

ummm dude the side is below the waterline your not pumping the water out fast enough....
