A lot of people only really look at Calgary’s goalies as well. They think other goalies are playing different positionally when they aren’t.

I do pay attention to what Millen says about goals. At least he played, so he knows. Hrudey as well, though he sometimes overdefends or wants to credit other players too much.

People should watch a game live and even more so from ice level some time. It’s amazing how the perspectve changes about how plays happen and what can be done about it.
