| It's surprising to see that you have so many netminders in the "need to get rid of" column, Olie did have a great season. It took them too long to get rid of Witt. He didn't want to be there and made it very apparent. He seemed very slow this season. Haven't caught a Predetors game yet so I'm not sure uf he has improved. But he was a very good stay at home defender that worked well in the old NHL and with the new NHL he sisn't seem that he wanted to adapt. He was my favorite player,
I like the new NHL makes play go faster but I think that it overexposes goalies. And goalies that were good in the Old NHL are maybe not so good in the New due to the quickness of play and the lack of good defenders. The deenders can't just stand in front of the crease and hope for the best. I've seen a lot of deflection goals scored of static defenders skates. More so than in any other year.
I like Sebastian Charpentier. I think he is in the AHL right now but he was backing up Olie for a while. He's young but he's good. I'd like to see him in the NHL. "Buy you a soda after the game?" |
