I’m still nervous every time the Ducks gain the zone or shoot though.

I agree, it was a good shot and a deserved goal. That’s the point.
One guy is paid over 6 million to make difficult saves. The other guy at the other end makes $800,000. Don’t think it’s unfair to expect a goalie like Markstrom to make a save that others wouldn’t make given the expectation that comes with the contract (even if that was a great shot).

A good goal is a good goal.

Hubado. Like does he not trigger himself when he says it? It's so bizarre.

Like if I said I was going to the shopping Mell enough times while everyone else said shopping mall, I feel like i'd be triggered that something was wrong. Does he not hear everyone else in the hockey world saying it properly?

It's been there in recent weeks. Look at his career and you will see he isn't very far off his last couple of seasons.

This is pretty much the player you can expect him to be. He isn't an offensive dynamo, but he does great at turning pucks back the other way, and then pushing the play up the ice to let his forwards get their chances. That's why he's a net extremely positive player, even though he doesn't get the points himself.

When you are in game 77 and your team save percentage is .892 you have let in a lot of good goals and more than the odd bad one. Maybe next year we will try a guy who has had two of the best goaltending seasons in recent AHL memory.

I was talking about a single goal. That’s what I look at in a game thread.

He is the type of player every team needs. Doesn’t care about the offensive stats, even though he could do more. But, he doesn’t as the sacrifice to not be there defensively (which should be the first priority), is equally as important. Not flashy, but reliable and solid, not to mention gritty.

Flames have shifted to a pure zone defense instead of man to man. Sutter didn't like how often they were getting beaten obviously.

I would love to see another Lucic snipe as an OT winner.

Flames got away with one as Coleman clearly high sticks the duck.

Pizza 73 advertising that they have delicious pizza on the virtual board ads should be a crime. The hot circle of garbage that they call pizza isn’t fit for human consumption.

This should have been done ages ago. They don’t have the foot speed for man to man.
