i can live with that.

I'm sure you can.
So, on a scale of 0-10, with zero being "not at all" and 10 being "supremely", how confident are you that MAF can win you a Cup from this point on given his recent past playoff form?

i literally just doused myself in gasoline at a wawa. i certainly will not be winning the calmer award.

Well that wasn't smart. I'm telling you man, the gasoline goes on the large wooden cross, not on the person. Man, you're gonna need to get those robes cleaned. No one likes a smelly clansman.

If he plays...well, like he has in the past few postseasons, would you be in favor of moving on? I know DB and a lot of Pens' fans have this unending blind faith in him and try to absolve him of any deficiencies, but how many chances can you give the guy?

You know...you should try entering a court room like that one day down the road. That would certainly get the jury's attention. Especially if you keep making references to Gilly Gab, the Elf Maiden of Gasoline.

i absolutely love the dude. and to me, it isnt a cup or bust thing for him. but if he implodes into a dumpster fire as before, then yes. he should have to go. you cant continuously waste valuable years of your window. im willing to give him one last run, but thats it.

That's because you uncalm people just can't fathom how calm you have to be to handle that.

Maybe if Fleury could improve his personal CORSI (maybe some kind of saves per shots on goal stat) he'd be better in the playoffs.

if thats a legitimate question, id have a hard time answering. im not a huge advanced stat person. but i do know that fleury had some games where he was downright dominant, and others where he was still able to make the timely saves needed to be made

Nothing about CORSI is legitimate. MAF is actually the poster child for that. You can have all the puck possession and shots you want. If the other team's goalie/defenders limit chances and goals, and your goalie leaks, then you'll lose. Just ask the 94/95, 99/00, and 02/03 NJ Devils.

So we are back to CORSI? Grossmann as well?
