that was a great save by Pavelec, every goalie has a few of those in their career, unfortunately for Jake he had to be on the other end of that. Not sure what purpose this really serves considering the video I posted was months after this supposed gaff which would contradict you're statement. As in, he's learned to....

the purpose is that there are two sides to every argument. we cant just show his highlights, without showing his gaffs as well. If hes asking 4+ mill he better bury that 99/100 times. Ive seen him whiff and implode on empty nets. Id rather trade him at that price, also these one year contracts are bothering me with him. Hes a great player, but he and svoboda should be polishing homers shoes for getting him out of columbus.

His unwillingness to commit to the flyers is eventually going to get his ass traded.

The Flyers trade anybody that shows an OUNCE of commitment. Surely you see his reluctance.

Which one is Richards.

Not that it matters, at the time I like the Carter trade and didn't like the Richards trade. Schenn and Simmonds were good pickups though. Just like Richards a player.

We have a great young team. We can always improve, but even with the JVR trade we have a great young core - enjoy!

The #stlblues have re-signed free-agent forward Jamie Langenbrunner, according to a league source.

Bolded the keyword there for you.

There have been countless instances of opponents booting shots wide or shooting into our goalie after he was down and out. We just don't remember them as vividly because we don't care about the player that flubbed it. The ones that wore orange and black we remember and rail against until their reputation has been ground into the asphalt.

haha.

New rule from the Flyers FO... If a player misses a shot that is deemed "A slam dunk 99 out of 100 times" they must donate 10k into a fund called "High and Wide". Proceeds benefit obese stoners..

And in arguing both sides, you have to take all the factors into consideration. Which on that play is that one, Voracek is reaching behind him, which cause him to lose his balance. And secondly, which is rarely taking into consideration by a lot of fans, is that the puck is on edge and spinning. Do you know how hard it is in that situation to get good wood on the shot? The puck for obvious reason fluttered in which allowed the Goalie, on a great effort, to make the save. Nobody comes close to burying that 99/100 times. If you buries that, with all the circumstances involved, 50% of the time. You'd be doing dam good.
