Capitals @ Leafs - Nov. 28th, 7:00pm - CBC, Fan 590

[Tigger]

USS Komarov strikes again.

 

[Kin]

I believe, possibly erroneously, that an NHL caliber goaltender could have had that...it wasn't a rocket nor all that sneaky

95% of goals are goals that a goalie could have stopped. Most goalies are going to be surprised and look bad when their defenseman gives the puck away right in front of the net like that.

 

[Arn]

I too find that if a stick hits me in the armpit my head snaps back

Read that wrong. Bernier still needs to make a 'hard' save. I've seen plays like that before and there is no way 95% of those go in. Any other goaltender and I believe it would have been a save.

If he stopped 95% of the pucks Id have no problem...its the fact that he hasn't made a 'hard' save this entire game. We need to be able to get a 'hard' save on occasion...if it was 95% of the time...I wouldn't be complaining

Highstick that wasn't a highstick then a ridiculous double deflection on ensuing PP for a goal.

I think the issue is that he opened up on a guy who hadn't scored in a bunch of games.  No need for that.

Now THAT goal wasn't his fault.

 

[4EVRLEAFAN]

Ok that one was bad luck

 

[herman]

My bad guys. I just loaded up the stream in time to see that pinball pp goal.

 

[Kin]

Tremendous. That's not what I said though.

 

[herman]

Should I stop watching?

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Put in Sparks.

 

[ZBBM]

Great shot there by Williams.  But any way you slice it, Bernier's not getting it done.

 

[4EVRLEAFAN]

Pull him!!

 

[bustaheims]

Tonight, we're getting a pretty good example of how talent trumps hard work.

 

[Tigger]

Sparks time.

 

[MetalRaven]

Tremendous. That's not what I said though.

Yeah I just tried to change that. Read it wrong. He still needs to bail the defense out on occasion...which he hasn't done in this game. I've seen plays similar to that before...any other goaltender and thats a save.

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Tonight, we're getting a pretty good example of how talent trumps hard work.

I think tonight's a pretty bad example of that with some of these goals.

 

[ZBBM]

Not that it matters much, but this has been Marincin's best game so far.

 

[Kin]

Yeah I just tried to change that. Read it wrong. He still needs to bail the defense out on occasion...which he hasn't done in this game. I've seen plays similar to that before...any other goaltender and thats a save.

That's absolute nonsense.

You gotta be good to be lucky.
