Joey MacDonald makes easy saves look like he is striving and at least half the goals he has let in this season were from 25' out and were unscreened/not-deflected.

Ramo's numbers don't look great, and he had a couple of bleh games, but all-in-all, the team looks a lot more confident when he is in net. The main thing for me though, is giving 2 young goalies some NHL experience. MacDonald made no sense on a rebuilding team. If they wanted a veteran to take the pressure off, a 3rd stringer that has been on waivers possibly more than any any other goalie currently in the NHL, was not the answer.

And what was this about him calling out the team last night? Where can I read the details?
