Which sucks for Letang. I was really hoping he’d get a Norris nomination this season, but after missing this stretch of games, it’s pretty much guaranteed he won’t. Figured the trophies is a two man race between Reilly and Burns, but would have loved to see our boy get nominated.

I would say Rielly and Giordano cause points and plus minus.

Darkhorse Dumoulin is good at one of those things and he's having a career year!

Those are probably the three. I forgot how great of a season Gio was having too. So Letang probably wouldn’t have been nominated anyways but still bummed he’s for sure eliminated now.

Korpisalo is Kinkaid’s backup. Is Bob dead?

Nah. He just had a 29 save win on Tuesday. CBJ is just carrying 3 goalies right now.

Yeah Mackey just corrected and said Korpisalo is starting. Awesome. Now let’s go out there and not make him look like Roy.

I will always remember the Patrick Roy that showed up to this game:

Pittsburgh Penguins

Making Call-Up Goalies look like Stars since 2017

Not really... I saw the stats... regular season Bob is actually better.

I'll go find them for an edit later.

Edit. My bad, GAA is Bob over Kink... SV% is the other way...

"these are the games for which the Blue Jackets brought in Kinkaid. He has a 6-3-2 record with a .912 save percentage and 3.07 goals-against average against Pittsburgh. That compares to Bobrovsky’s 11-8-5 mark with a .906 save percentage and 2.93 GAA. This season, Bob is 0-2 with an .846 save percentage and 4.06 GAA."


Whoever made this analysis of why the Jackets got Kinkaid should be fired haha...he's not starting tonight.

Its nuts, isnt it?

I would imagine though if we watched all the other team's games as much as the Pens games we'd see other teams doing this as well....just seems it happens a lot with the Pens, and not just this season, for a long time.

What a beauty roster that night. They were stacked.

You thought Crosby should have won the Hart in a season he only played half of???
- Feds91Stammer

Why does that matter??.... He was the most valuable player in the league that year and his year was cut short by a hit that wasn't his fault.... If playing the entire year was a qualifier for the Hart then any person who plays less than 78 games should be ineligible.... The NHL already has the Art Ross for the all season achievement award.
