Or a bigger glove. Hand him the ball? Its the wrong sport and its triggering my OCD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guadana Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Lindy, you are an old guy, what’s about extra free weekend? Even Sisyphus wouldn't entrust his work to Blackwood. I wanna cheer for Black Mac, but he absolutely deserve to watch how Schmid play, how gullies play, even freakin Brady, who is good in university, deserve more. Can we call Malek from Czech? Dubnyk is without a job. He was bad, but we have worser starter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a field for bad jokes. Like “mb3’s was never angering at me” but I will not do it. He is great dude.

Chimaira_Devil_#9 Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Still not ready to give up on Big Mac. I think the coaching staff have alluded to the fact he is playing injured. If you are not 100% comfortable it impedes your concentration. He can be incredible when he is on. He just needs to find that consistency. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, this is a guy who was in the ECHL not long ago. Eh, that’s been 4 years ago now. And it was only a cup of coffee (5 games). He played 36 games in the AHL the year before (2016-17). He’s 25 years old at this point, and has been in the system for a lot longer than some may realize. But I get it, context (age, teammates, coaching, etc) actually matter when it’s a goalie.

Devil Dan 56 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 I don’t want to give up on Blackwood yet either but he’s gotta develop some consistency. He’s frustrating as hell at times, but he’s been thrown to the wolves a lot in his short career and his veteran 1B is gone once again. Would have been nice to have him behind a non-injured Schneider for a couple of years and ease him into the NHL but oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think his numbers will improve from where they currently are, but I see him being more of an inconsistent .910 save% kind of goalie. Hard to win with a guy like that as your #1.

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Nico says he's good to go. Feels like the Devils got a HUGE break here...we'll see if Nico's compromised, or close to full strength. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
