always liked Halak, his issue is he often wears down during the season, he is too skinny and has trouble keeping on weight during the year
I think he would work well in a situation where he plays 35-45 games...sort of a 1A - 1B goaltending set up.
he cannot carry a 60 game regular season load.
Big game for Crosby and the boys tonight, not sure they want to head back to New York down 2-0 in the series.
Fleury needs to find a way to not let in any soft goals, .Crosby and Malkin need to step it up as well....
I think PENS win tonight.
After heading to the final 4 in his first season as GM with Guy Boucher as coach, Lightning seemed to have taken a step backwards, due to injuries and losing a couple of top players.
the good news for them is Jonathan Drouin will be in the line-up next season.....his days at halifax are over
Montreal was 9+ minutes away from taking a 2-0 series lead back to Montreal.....although they still have home ice advantage in this series, this loss may sting them heading into Monday nights Game 3.
On a positive for Montreal, Vanek scored 2 goals and this may "wakeup" the top line
Lets see.....
