This team is fun to watch. When did that happen?

Oh my... (as george takei)

What a gritty performance! Looking back on all the saves Ned made when they were trailing.

I'm curious what he'll be looking for as a FA. Love having him on the team, but goaltending can be a premium on the market depending how much you like a guy.

He'll be looking to start, at least as part of a tandem. His play has earned him that much. I hope he stays a Penguin.

I don’t think the Penguins need Jarry’s contract to compete, and I think he’s a luxury if they’re going to get high picks.

Jarry might be expendable if you want to roll Ned as your tandem goalie with another guy making the same salary.

Ballsy.

Still alive. Never tank until you're out.

Sitting in the arena, I said exactly that.

And as soon as I turn on Hawks Isles they score.

hard disagree

Tandem goalies don't really seem to work too well... plus, both goalies are usually on the cheap.

You're definitely right that Ned will be looking to start. I'm just not sure he can get that role or even starter money. Of course, some teams are desperate for a goalie, so who knows.

Post by **Rx6687** » Tue Apr 02, 2024 9:52 pm

You figure 90 points gets you in... maybe

7 games left, they'd need 11 points.

5-1-1 is a tall order, but they can go 4-3 if all 3 losses are loser points. It's...not impossible.

One at a time. Can't control what the other teams are doing except when you play them. Big one on Thursday vs the Craps to keep this improbable train moving.
