Zatkoff is not an NHL goalie.

One of my big fears for this season is MAF gets hurt and the Penguins end up trading away yet ANOTHER first round pick for somebody's backup because it's pretty hard to do much winning without an NHL goalie on the roster.

we have this lightly used ben scrivens

"6 straight wins" looks impressive but eking out one goal wins over the Sabres and Canucks and Oilers is not exactly setting the world on fire. As I said I'm just glad they're banking points because they're going to need them later when they get back to playing good teams.

The Pens have a bunch of goaltending prospects they can throw to the wolves if things go south.

I'm pretty sure they've openly said that if MAF can't play they intend for Matt Murray to be called up to start.

They have, basically. But it's one thing to say that in September and another thing to be in 6th place and have MAF go out for the year and know that if they don't make the playoffs everyone's fired. I suspect Rutherford might get a pretty itchy trigger finger on the PROVEN VETERAN GOALTENDER gun under those circumstances.

another game at nationwide arena. everybody keeps asking me if they can fuck the cannon. buddy, they don't even let me fuck it

How is it that, of the three California teams played in four nights, it's the Anaheim Ducks giving the CBJ fits?

Murray looked pretty good in the preseason, but I don't want to see him rushed into the NHL because that can ruin goaltenders.
