Has he regressed? Will he regress? Time will tell. But those supporting the idea that the jury is still not in have more on their side than mental gymnastics.

Hey, I am firmly on the side that the jury is not in.
But expressing my concerns, based on my observations, has not been well received by some. I don’t understand the absolute conviction that he is a top goaltender because neither the data nor the eye test have borne it out
It’s Kevin Woodley from InGoal that you are referring to. He often has good insight and I believe he is a Canucks fan
