Patty Lalime

All I know about Patty Lalime is that I feel ridiculously uncomfortable while he is in net. It's not the soft goals so much, but the way he carries himself. He leaves the net like he is a defenseman, rather than a goaltender. Then when he gets out of the net, he becomes very non-decisive on what to do with the puck when playing it.

 

I don't know, he may have decent numbers for a backup, but I am ready to move on.

 

If they can bring in someone better, I'm all for it. No problem whatsoever.

I think this is what's happening. Darcy has not tapped Lalime as yet because he may need that money for a trade. If a trade occurs, he'll bring up Enroth. If not, he'll probably use the money to keep Lalime for another season and bring up Enroth next year.

 

Sounds plausible.

 

Enroth's cap hit s $850k. Lalime's was a million. This has absolutely nothing to do with money.

I don't know that it's a confidence issue, but it sure is a game experience issue. I think I write this at the beginning of every season: three games on, one game off for the starter. If there's one thing that Ruff does that drives me nuts, it's the management of the backup goalie.

Ah right, thanks for that.
