Canucks @ Leafs - Dec. 6th, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

This is true but here for once I see & agree with Carlyle. Reimer was awful last 2x and hasn't done anything this year to show he should start ahead of Bernier. The real question we have is whether either of these guys is the long term answer.

This is less a matter of him starting ahead of Bernier, and more about giving Bernier a night off, while keeping Reimer from going almost a month between starts. On average, backup goalies start about 1 of every 4 games. That's roughly 3 games every 4 weeks. When paired with another goalie who A) has yet to have a full, healthy season as a starting goalie in the NHL and B) is coming back from a significant knee injury, for the sake of the team's success and that starter, the coach needs to maintain that pace - and, especially when the starting goalie hasn't exactly been lights out, either.

Fine. Go ahead and make a hogshead of sense then.

Nice work Kadri

10 minutes in and the Leafs haven't been scored on.  Baby steps.

 

[freer]

Where the hell is the support for the defense.

 

[ZBBM]

Exactly freer.  Lupul and JVR look like they have no idea how to play without the puck.

 

[ZBBM]

That's how you beat Miller.

 

[freer]

Go HOLLAND

[ZBBM]

Whoa.  Panik.  That was SKILL.

 

[freer]

Where the hell did those hands come from

 

[L K]

Panik really has some nice hands around the net.  That's his second hesitation back hand goal.

 

[L K]

Why is Winnik playing on the 2nd line again?

[freer]

Dumbass

 

[ZBBM]

Franson has been good lately, no doubt about it.  Couple of real nice spoils that period.
