You're probably right but if it didn't work, and Johnson lets up five, this place blows up and questions the decision even more.
"Way to show confidence in your new #1 GG!"
"Both our goalies suck!"
"Hiller and Ramo have skinned Elliott and Johnson and are wearing their faces!"
suicide booth, etc, etc...
I honestly think a goalie switch wasn't helping anything last night. The Flames just weren't ready to play and the Oilers were. Grossman instead of Kulak/Jokki didn't help but I think we were destined to lose that one regardless. The top line was disjointed and ineffective, as were the defense. IMO the only players that had good games were Frolik, Backlund, Brouwer, Bennett (sorta) and the 4th line at times.
I'm not sure how much GG's lineup contributed to all that, but they just weren't good enough as a team at the end of the day. I mean Kris Russell was better than 90% of the Flames last night. I don't care who the goalies are, or what the circumstances are... that can't happen, it just can't.
You could really tell that the top line didn't spend a second of training camp together.
