[ZBBM]

Holzer and Franson have both been good on the d side tonite.

Bernier sucks crap this evening

 

[bustaheims]

Well, that was . . . yeah.

 

[Stronger Than All]

Nice momentum kill there Bernier.

 

[Kin]

Bernier sucks crap this evening

It got tipped right in front.

 

[WhatIfGodWasALeaf]

I know it was tipped, but Bernier hasn't been great again.

 

[Damian]

Bernier sucks crap this evening

I agree with you, and will add, that he IS NOT a #1 goalie in the NHL.... not even close.....

 

[Strangelove]

Bernier sucks crap this evening

I agree with you, and will add, that he IS NOT a #1 goalie in the NHL.... not even close.....

Based on what exactly?

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

How is that not a high sticking penalty on Malkin?

I was coming here to wonder the same thing. Of course a goal against right after.

Oh how things change in a month and a half.

Please.  You're giving me flashbacks of Komisarek (sp)

You have to expect a goalie to make a save once in a while.

Based on what exactly?

His play in the 2014/15 season so far, and the salary bestowed upon him.... he leads the league in sh*t goals against so far.... anything else?

While tonight's goals haven't been a direct reflection of it, he's openly admitted that his knee is still bothering him. He's almost certainly trying to compensate for some decreased mobility, and, well, it's not working out so well for him.

It is true that he hasn't established himself as the undisputed #1 here, though.

Oh yeah? I hadn't heard that before. Good thing Randy's probably going to start him in all the non-back-to-back games for a bit.

 

[freer]

We need a big kill here

 

[Kin]

You have to expect a goalie to make a save once in a while.

So you're basically admitting that your criticism has nothing to do with the quality of the chance or the normal expectation of a goalie to stop that specific shot but instead just that Bernier should by virtue of luck, make more timely stops.

Well, then, you're right. Bernier is running dangerously low on magic pixie dust.

 

[CarltonTheBear]

It is true that he hasn't established himself as the undisputed #1 here, though.

True, but few people were anti-Bernier at the end of the last season.

Yeah and it's been bothering him a while apparently, I'd rather give him a few weeks off to heal.
