We need a goalie.

We don’t have the cap space to take his contract. Plus the jets are good so why let him go? He’s at what 6.75M? Nah. 
 

I’d say bring Perets up LTIR Raanta and make Pyotr #1 at least until Christmas. 

Don’t we have the cap space now that Freddie is out?  Also, if you IR Raanta that will open up more space. I bet wads could make it work.

Won’t help next year. 5M is our max if we bring a goalie in and that’s a hell of a lot for a goalie. Who isn’t named Saros, Vas, Shesterkin or Sorokin. We need to let our Russian get his chance to loose the net.

SAT line needs to be a thing even though Tripp has been pushing the Svech-Aho non-chemistry narrative. I call BS. I don’t see us retaining Necas in the offseason. Let him go spend time on 4.

The canes were at their best when the SAT line was a thing. Plus I call BS to. That Vegas OT game two years again, AHO To Svech for the game winner was beautiful. Also, Svech stuck up for aho on the ice against the rangers this year. Sometimes the players are just better in game Vs practice. Remember x-clown with Smitty?

Window is shrinking. We gotta do it now. If not now? When.

We have pieces, we need to trust them. Now is Pyotr’s time to shine or die.

Welp apparently Rod can’t see the writing on the wall. The only change is flipping svech and Necas on the power play. FFS. 
 

Apparently Raants is still 1A.

I’m also in favor a FINALLY reuniting the SAT line.  Put Jarvis with bunting and necas with Drury and Neosen. Tell me that doesn’t sound like a winner?

That doesn't sound like a winner

pretty frustrating that we can point out the weaknesses way before the season begins and those weaknesses then show up again. We knew that we needed better goaltending in the offseason. We got the best out of Raanta and Anderson and we gambled that it would continue into this year which it didnt. Now we have to scramble to find another option to pair with pytor who may or may not even be ready to be a goalie 1 yet.

Did he say something, or just practice observations?

Haven’t listened to the post practices yet. But Rod AND Staals mentality post game was the writing is very much on the wall. As for Raants nobody said anything changed at any position which leads the the assumption of Raants is still 1A. Hopefully canes_pr will put out the post-practice interview soon.

They just literally posted it while I was posting. Listening to Rod now. Still no goalie questions or talk. 

[Harbingers]

Really not impressed with Rod. This is one of his worsts pressers.

The way this season started and after last night's debacle, if this were many other teams in the league, RBA might be out of a job.

I'd really like to know what went on during the 3rd period that RBA thought it was a good idea to leave Raanta.

Maybe RBA was sending a message to the entire squad. Maybe he thought it better to let them get embarrassed than to intervene.

Paul Coffey might be a good choice.
