Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 (edited) 20 minutes ago, RizzMB30 said: Yeah, I saw an interview of Brind'Amor when the Canes went down 5-0 to the Oilers and Brind'Amor was interviewed and he was honestly throwing his hands up in the air and said "he's never seen this team play this bad and he's looking for answers himself. Speechless." Things are not well in Carolina land. If these defensive/goaltendering struggles continue through 30 games, I think the Canes make a goalie change before we do. And the goalie market is SO thin right now. Markstrom is 33 years old (will turn 34 on 1/31/24), has $8 million in ACTUAL money ($6 million hit) coming to him this year, has two more years after this one, was meh last year and meh this year...and someone desperate team will probably bite the bullet and take a chance on him. Scary. Here's a list of goalies under contract and their cap hits. How many of them are actually available AND desirable? 2023-24 Active NHL Players - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps Edited December 7, 2023 by Colorado Rockies 1976 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDevils1214 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 @Nicomo Smith is back-- just for you. Bastian can sit. He has been near invisible so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJDfan1711 Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Meier on the third line, wow. Can't say it's undeserved. Surprised Haula is rewarded with top line minutes given his tendency to take penalties. I guess he's earned it, but if he continues to take penalties I think you have to swap him and Holtz.

Rob_Ottawa Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Ya I looked at goalie market and it's super barren, really nothing decent out there. Unfortunately best options are all in division which is unlikely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d like to see what Holtz can do playing next to a facilitator like Jack. His production could really take off. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does that have to do with a game in another city/stadium? What the hell are the fans and players doing for an extra 15 minutes? Twiddling their thumbs? I can honestly say I've never been at a live game that was delayed starting because of another game.... what an odd situation that must be.

The NBA has historically done this during the playoffs, but I don’t know if it’s now standard practice for the NHL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
