Have some patience people. Yes the season has been disappointing but lets give younger players chance to develop and not blame them for the end result. Rant over.

By contrast, look at Joni Ortio. Finnish league bum now.
I agree that goalies develop much later than players, but we also can't afford to piss away Johnny and Mony's primes, and what is left of Gio's pre apex years waiting for Gillies to become the man.
