You dared to doubt Koskinen the great! :) Ended up with a 0.921 sav %. Partially thanks to this beauty
hehe, I certainly wouldn't have blamed him for that goal though if it did go in. Where's the D!!!

Yeah, he made me look pretty bad, didn’t he? He ran a tight ship after I opened my big mouth.
Like mentioned earlier (Adam?), media, callers etc are so focused on this sample size since Talbot left.
Is he better without someone competing with him? Is it because Sekera is such a calming influence on the D corps? Is he better because without Talbot, he gets better practice time and focus from the goalie coach? Is he better because he knows he’s THE guy?
I realize it’s boring, but how about coincidence? But no. It just HAS to be because of Talbot leaving. And no. I’m not sold yet. He’s quite a swimmer for a big guy.

Seems like a streaky goalie, which is not an uncommon thing, most are. Might be a low end starter in the end, which I guess we can live with, but we really need to improve this team overall so he doesn't fall into the pit of despair like so many Oilers goalies before him. I appreciate how he battles, but there is no amount of battle that can't be beat out of a guy with a crap team playing crap hockey in front of him.
