^ Last night doesn’t have to do with whether he should play the puck in general yes/no.

It does have to do with, given the situation, what he decides to do. He lost the puck, it’s now a battle. Get back in net. Simple.

As for helping his team 10x more, well, he has lost the puck behind the net and been scored on, his fault, twice in his last 3 games. (He admits mistakes were made but doesn’t point the finger at the guy in the mirror)

Of course mistakes are magnified, the result is often goals against. Preventing goals is the goalie’s main job, not causing them.

And if his puck playing is the reason this team is in the position they are, how do you reconcile that with the other goalie’s much better record?
