Imo, I believe Botts wanted him in large part to bolster a weak PK. I also did an analytics comparison of him, bennett, and another player that eludes me right now. Frolik fared well
- Michael Pachla


I remember reading how he did well on the PK so he seemed to have some method to that madness but 4 million a year for a specialty? Maybe why Calgary had no problem saying goodbye.

Hate to kick Boss while he’s down cause I know a few other posters took some jabs at him earlier but Tampa out hit Columbus 38-15.

Columbus proving how being difficult to play against doesn’t necessarily mean having to be overly physical.

Columbus continuing to do what they did all regular season. Gave up a lot of shot attempts and shots but they block a lot and most shots come from the outside and not in dangerous scoring areas. Korpisalo did his job.

I still laugh thinking about Torts putting hotel check out slips under the player's team room doors before game 5

It’s really simple what to do with Montour. Go to arb for 1 year, play him accordingly in a sheltered 4-5 role, he will inevitably look better, and then trade him

Sure. I also think he can be useful in a sheltered role.

They will never shelter Ristolainen so I hope he’s traded no matter what
