He’s also on the ice a lot against the other team’s best players.

I think Williams is one mis-step away from being force-fed Dave's blocker.

That's at least 3 glove pokes at Rittich. Either tune someone in or do it back to Mrazek

Gio helps his brain farts immensely. The two wash each other out.

If Smith was in net it would probably be 6-3 Canes right now

Yeah Williams was whining about it for minutes afterwards.

Odd reaction to what was clearly an unintentional and helpless play.

If the canes had more scoring talent they'd be a top team tbqh. They have a great system, speed and work ethic top to bottom but they stacked everything on their back end.

Flames could have put this away by now if they were sharp...that one was unlucky though

more reason not to try a cross ice pass in a game they already jumped it and scored a goal... clearly they have scouted him and are looking at for that

Canes are a good team and very quick...gotta make that safe play there

It truly is like watching two different teams depending in which goalie we have in.

He won't be a Flames because one game with two bad turnovers (and overall still effective outside of that) out of what, the last 30? Against one of the best forechecking teams in the world?

Yeah, lol.

Optics are not the same as actual effectiveness.

You remember the 5% bad and ignore the 95% good.

Would love to see it. Williams is such a whiner.

Wat? they constantly give up odd man rushes because of their all out attack...won't win consistently playing like that
