The thing about Joey is that he is part of the rebuild, whereas not Dubie. Good job, Joey Mac. |

yep. and competition is a GOOD THING. I love the fact that Ricky will be pushed to be better when he's healthy and I hope Joey keeps it up. But you hit the nail on the head. I heard that his last start was Joey's 14th straight. This is the kind of #$%^ that wears a goalie down. It is one thing to face a ton of shots every night in November, but when it comes to march it is a diff story. Let's remember, Rick has played 63 games each of the last two seasons, but last year he had 63 starts and didn't play at all in April and March. The year prior he missed time in the spring. Sorry, but that isn't a good pace for any goalie when you face 33 shots a night. I don't know that our defense is playing any better or worse for Joey right now than it did the last 2 seasons. I suspect it is spurts of both, but these 3rd period meltdowns, getting outshot 17-2 in a period are going to start adding up when a goalie starts a string of 15-20 straight games. JMHO but Joey will need to be given breathers here and there. Our goalies don't face 22 shots a night. |
