well we got an experienced goalie but the numbers don't look good at all. maybe he will be ok playing with our defence we will see ha ha ha

He's not that bad, gotta remember that he never played in front of any defense, let alone the 6 he will with in Nashville. It's a solid stop-gap till the end of the season and he's a pending UFA.

thanks for reminding me of that no wonder he never look go he never had any help at all in Edmonton i know he was ready to get the hell out of there our defence will help him a ton ha ha ha.

Literally nobody on that defense plays defense lol I mean outside of Andrew Ference. Schtz is more offensive minded, Nick Schultz is ehhh. Nothing good over there on D. Nothing like what you guys have.
