If Levi lets in 5-6 tonight it’s going to deflate a lot of people.

What are people expecting from him?

4 or 5 goals against Atleast. Going from college to the nhl isn’t easy


I’m just saying that Adams thinks extremely highly of Levi

Depends on how the team plays around him IMO, time to start building a system around your Golden Child.

Let’s create a Levi scale

3 or under. - amazing perfect game

4-6 range - most likely the expected out come

6+++. Levi needs roch and needs 2 years of seasoning

I would be happy if doesn’t give up the 1st goal of the game and he doesn’t let in a soft one at any point in the game. Expectations are very low at the moment.

How about we just let it play out the rest of the season and over the summer?

This entire thread is going to knee-jerk this kid's whole career after one (frank)ing game. You know it, and I know it.

Kinda why I said it that way. It's his first game and hope he plays well. I am more interested in seeing how the team plays around him and if they can start building a system around there Golden Child and improve on it as the season ends.

I don't think so, goalies in first games get shelled quite often. Especially ones without any pro experience.

Ryan Miller's first 2 games 1-0-1 4.00 .826 in a year with 1 fewer goal per game than this year.

Hopefully see a better Greenway, and hopefully Samuelsson holds up.

Levi probably getting more nervous with no shots on net.

Squeezing the life out of the Rangers, nice to see them playing like this. Can they be consistent.

YAY! He made his first save on the first shot. Was a little worried as time went on NY would sneak it in on their first shot.

Can't be good sitting back there and not getting any action
