That’s weird
Not that I feel more confident, but I’m glad it won’t be Poulter being lit up in his first ever game.
Snip snap!
It should be against Johansson, who’s been one of the worst goalies this year. Game may come down to whose backup goalie is less terrible.
But like why? If Akira is up against the GP mark then what are we even doing.
Good. I feel like his performance in the post season at least earned him some more games with Vitek injured. We can’t work Nico into the ground. Nico is barely hanging on.
Tomorrow is like a game 7 so rather have Schmid. Interesting to see if Vasy plays
For anyone confused this was speculated on days ago. Schmid was sent down so he could get a game in for Utica last night so he could be warmed up for the Sunday game since he hasn’t played while up with us and we didn’t want him totally cold.
That was the obvious move.
I get it. They sent him down to get some game action.
You know what. Makes sense
