Depends how long Ramo is out for. Cause until then we've got a rookie who's played 1 NHL game liftetime and a lifelong NHL/AHL tweener in MacDonald who hasn't been that impressive in the minors lately That's hands down the least proven goaltending duo in the NHL at the moment I would think. Berra hasn't really been that bad, some people will find it hard to believe but our goaltending could have been a lot worse this year and still has the potential to go downhill.
We are in hardcore tank mode right now especially until Ramo and Stajan come back. Have you looked at the forward lines and goalies for the game tonight? Easily the worst lineup we've iced this season I'd say. And we're led in goals by a 19 year old. I mean there's always a chance the kids really impress and we look great and squeak out some wins. But if this isn't hardcore tank mode what is? I guess Cammy and Butler could be gone too but it isn't like Cammalleri or Butler has been dragging our team to victory by himself.
This is what tank mode looks like. It'll be interesting to see if we go on a tear with the kids or continue to falter. Last year was a bit different in that we still had Kiprusoff. Ortio will need to channel Kipper until Ramo comes back.
