Or if Ward can time it like Hartley did in 15, when he switched just at the right time at various points in the season and against the Canucks.

I'm not worried about Rittich getting rusty -- unlike previous goalies we've had, he's shown the ability to step in play well immediately. In this case, I'm hoping the extra rest might help him get dialed in earlier and better.

It's a cool experience for people that are more interested in the spectacle of the event, but if you're actually interested in the game, it's a little disappointing.

Suck it up princess -- if Bev can do it ~30 games a year, you can too

Dammit Ken King, another missed opportunity. Could have had a nice presentation with an oversized bobblehead along with a bobblehead video montage, followed by a bobblehead banner. I hate this organization.

I agree, we don't want to mess with Rittich's head but he also just became the starter officially this season, they brought in a veteran backup to play games if he starts to get overworked or decline in play and I think he has. Likely because of a lot of starts and the team not playing overly well either, not all his fault. The last thing we need is a 1A 1B problem with both goalies not feeling it.

I am also thinking about the upcoming break, which is only a week away. Both Talbot and Rittich should get a multiple games between now and next Saturday.

I wouldn’t mind seeing this:

Tkachuk-Lindholm-Mangiapane
Gaudreau-Monahan-Dube
Bennett-Backlund-Reider
Lucic-Ryan-Rinaldo

We're in for some...

They're selling all-star jerseys at the Fanattic at the Dome and they're far worse in person. The lines across the chest are sparkly...
