I think he backs up Helle all year and gets 20(ish) games. With a 4GAA 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 Pretty sure the plan is to play Helle at 65+ games again... The Unknown Poster and Brandon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they try to back off a bit on that, seeing as he slowed down so much during the playoffs. He looked tired when they got the Western Conference Final. bustamente 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see either of these guys handling the job for 30ish games... I think they should limit him to 58-60 starts. That's an extra game off per week for the last two months of the season. And nowhere near 30 games. Edited September 6, 2018 by JCon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bustamente Posted September 6, 2018 Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 If your back up can't play or isn't go enough to play 3 games a month then we are in trouble. JCon and Goalie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Unknown Poster Posted September 6, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2018 Win a ton of games early, coast into playoffs giving Helle extra rest before we ramp back up for the post-season. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Floyd Posted September 10, 2018 Report Share Posted September 10, 2018 Patches to VGK - Tatar, Suzuki and 2nd rounder... Good trade to dump Tatar's salary and for this year's playoff run Cdns just keep getting worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He goes to the same goalie school as Helle does. He's Helles buddy. You think the pros know more? Nah that's crazy talk.. Ppl on fan forums know more.

Nah that's crazy talk.. Ppl on fan forums know more. But they're paying him league minimum. It's fair to say that if other teams valued him as a back-up, they would have recruited him too. Maybe he had multiple offers but obviously for not much more money. Not saying that he's not going to be good but I practiced with Todd McCullough and doesn't make me an NBA player.

Speaking of which... https://www.bardown.com/tracing-back-how-vegas-got-the-assets-to-acquire-pacioretty-makes-one-team-look-bad-1.1170486 Fun Fact: At the Expansion Draft, Columbus traded a 2017 1st (which they used to draft Nick Suzuki), a 2019 2nd, & David Clarkson, for Vegas to draft William Karlsson. VGK now trades 2 of the pieces received in that side trade with CBJ (Suzuki & 2019 2nd) to MTL for Pacioretty. JCon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know more than the pros... but you never provide a link or source when you quote the pros either... so its hard to believe they said Brossoit will play 30+ games The Unknown Poster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
