Guy was still the teams playoff MVP and I’d have no hesitation to bring him back in a tandem role next year. The more concerning piece is Rittich, who really seemed to lose his game and confidence after the drama with the Oilers.
And the coach on the other hand...don’t be fooled By the “coaching change” this is the same coaching staff that had no answer for how to break out against a heavy forecheck for back to back playoffs, and made the ridiculous decision to put in a goalie that hadn’t played in 5 months that was lacking confidence.
