You dislike your team that much that you can see good play out of Karl? I still think he showed promise for such a huge guy.

And that boll jackman fight. WTF happened there.

Jackman got his ass handed to him.

Keep a close eye on Karlsson. Sure, he's big and can stop a lot of shots. First shots. His size prevents him from being mobile and he lacks the agility to get in position for second and third shots.

It isn't about disliking my team. It's about what makes a good goalie.

i thought jackman had the upper hand at the start too.

thats kinda my point. for a huge guy he's a pretty big goalie. that diving stop off the wacky glass for instance. he isn't the fastest by any means but he sure is for fast his size. i mean damn. where he get pads?

I started Johnson last night, who let in 3 in 12 shots in the first period and was pulled... GAA was like 15.00 and a .700 sv%.. Thank god Vokoun pitched a shutout the night before and won for me last night.

Iginla just got whooped by benn from dallas, looked like a nasty cut near his eye.

Excuse me? "Iginla got whooped"? Other than Iggy getting cut, (from showing respect and removing his own helmet), you can't deny he got the better of Benn. I have the game pvr'ed. I just watched the fight again. I think you should too.

They pretty much mailed in teh season bringing Lemaire back out of moth balls. Too many injuries, a gutless captain and a clueless coach = lost season. I'll still watch the rest of teh games, but I haven't had to deal with a season like this in a Loooooooooooooooooooong time....guess I was due.

The fact that Iginla removes his helmet/visor every time he fights = he wins. Every new player should be required to watch a video of how this man has played the game over the course of his career.

Huge mistake trading away many of the gritty role players that made them a good team. The Kovalchoke trade killed them. They spent $100 million and tossed away good players to Atlanta to bring a gutless cancer into their dressing room. The Devils were never about one player other than Brodeur. Now their whole game plan revolves around a tempermental and selfish jerk. Lou Lam needs to own up to some of the blame here. McClean was just the fall guy here.

Kovalchuk not the problem, I would do that deal again in a heartbeat. Their defense is horrendous, Volchenkov and Taormina are th only guys worth a damn and both have missed huge chunks of Season. Salvador injury has really hurt as well. They have some good young talent coming along in Tedneby and Josefsen (who also got hurt and missed a ton of games) and Parise will be back next year. The 1 HUGE mistake Lou made was the Rolston deal. They can't get rid of that albatros, they rid themselves of some guys like Langenbrunner and White very soon and Arnott will either re-up for less or be gone as well. I think elias will be dealt too. They will build it back up around Parise, Kovy, Zajac, Tedneby and Josefsen on offense. Volch and Taormina will be the keystones on D.

Doesn't he have to remove his helmet or its a misconduct. You can't fight with a visor or cage on your helmet.

I think that only applys if there is an instigator penalty coming to the shield wearing player. I think they receive an additional penalty. :confused:

I looked it up and found nothing that says so. I give nobody extra credit for removing a helmet with a shield or cage though.
