Yea, Ill let you win this. Im taking pleasure in the misery, you're just miserable. It's obvious this is a team wide failure, but one guy is all you need to blame. Makes you feel like the solution is just one move away. I can understand that. Like a comfort blanket.

How many of the GA do you feel were stoppable by an NHL calibre goalie? Imo it's at least 60-70%. Its not just the amount of goals, it's that some of them were soooo soft. It boggles me that you'd argue the point. If you feel that I'm posting emotionally then you haven't been paying attention.

exactly... blaming it all on one guy is not going to make the problem(s) go away.

Yes yes. Every time someone disagrees it's always a lack of games watched. That comfort blanket is getting alot of use. Watch out for wet spots.

last year it was the team hanging duby out to dry.. now it's him not making the key saves. don't think it's as cut and dry as u try and make it sounds.
- derm10

Sigh....the point is he hasn't even needed to stand on his head. He's just needed to make saves he should always make. he hasn't.

it's not possible to say our goaltending hasn't been incredibly weak.

but do we wish our d would be better too? yes.

we wouldn't 1-4-1 right now with Anderson between the pipes

The Sens have as many wins as you guys have, and they have Anderson between the pipes. Difference is, their TEAM actually plays defense and helps him out.

That monniker was adopted after the Black Friday tornado, not due to Cup wins. Sure you already knew that though.

Why would a ref ban me for returning the same advice you offered? Or for disagreeing with you? I wish a pair of cojones were around, cause you sure need them more than you need a Yeti at this point.

Maybe the boys will have something to play for if Eakins gives them junk food back. I bet Duby is dying for a donut

If you look back a couple years on this site, Ive been a relentless Dubnyk supporter even as others constantly said he was not a starting goaltender. How many losses and soft goals should they put up with in a fairly critical year?
