If I'm Holland, I'm making calls about a goalie. Smith already had a injury history and Kosk can't keep this up for long with out atleast some relief. If not an equal or upgrade.

Maybe Fleury could be had from the imploding Hawks.


If only it could have been foreseen that there could be challenges with this goaltending tandem...

I still can't believe we signed Smith for two years. What's the over/under on how many games he actually plays in that time?

The top end of this team is so ridiculously good that it disguises some big flaws in the roster. The bottom six has been getting chewed up - even with Ryan and Foegele in the mix - and we basically have two bottom pairing plus Russell who should probably be farmed out and never seen again now. (It's also pretty laughable that Shore and Koekkoek both also got 2-year deals...)

I do think the Shore injury is possibly a blessing in disguise as it means Tippett loses that go-to player - a positive since he is a black hole for puck possession. He's already -3 in 8 games on a team that has won seven of those eight games. He's Tippett's new Patrick Russell (although with slightly better hands).



"Thinking that a bad team's best players are the reason the team is bad is the "Tambellini re-signing Lennart Petrell" of sports opinions." @Woodguy55
