Like Rinne seriously looks like a really intense beer league goalie sometimes, he's so manic. It's weird as hell to see since like every goalie coach these days ascribes to the less movement is better philosophy even the guys teaching lunatics like Quick

Even Quick is very controlled in his movements. Rinne's push offs and movement look uncontrolled and uncoordinated all the time

The beer leaguer that played for the Blackhawks earlier this year did a lot better in the first 8 shots he saw :v:

I like little guys who challenge and do weird poo poo like Quick but he looks smooth doing it at least and his movement is calculated, Rinne looks like he's constantly hulking up

Oh yeah but Quick is 6'1 and Rinne is 6'5. If you're 6'5 and moving around all over you're just opening up holes unless you're super controlled and great at anticipating the play

Rinne seems really athletic for a big guy but not particularly good at playing controlled

Saros is actually pretty good. Rinne during the regular season was better, but I felt that if Rinne went down, it wasn't OH GODS WE'RE hosed compared to the Jets if they lose Connor.

As bad as Nashville is this series, and Rinne in particular, the bright spot is that hopefully it means Saros gets his time in the limelight next season, because he's gonna be fuckin' great.

We have the capability to make San Jose's first Cup Champion.

The Sharks could be that Champion.

From a good spectator product perspective, even though I sort of prefer Nashville to win, them getting behind early is probably the best thing to happen.

Bishop was so good at just being big and not moving a lot, just sound positioning and calculated movements.

Too bad about his gaborik legs tho

Rinne is a super high energy goalie with a lot of extraneous movement and when he's good he looks near unbeatable but when he's bad he looks like this, just a twitchy mess

Saros is the best goalie prospect in the league I think if we can still call him that, although we'll see how good these mystery Russians the Islanders/Rangers/Caps have are and that WHL guy the Flyers have is

Fleury hasn't been doing it this playoffs sadly although I still see his brain activating to do weird poo poo behind the net but then he stops himself

loving Ben Bishop I hated him so much with the Lightning because he owned the gently caress out of the Rangers (though they did alright on him in the playoffs)

why couldn't his legs have exploded earlier

100% a dive and I don't care at this point, go Preds, continue to fail to score on the power play.

not so much a dive as a calculated play to draw a penalty IMO.

Crosschecking a guy in the back is crosschecking a guy in the back but Subban kinda set the whole thing up

It's interesting to me how some guys are just so much better at getting dangerous shots through to the net on the PP. Guys like Subban, Shattenkirk is great at scoring on wrist shots from the blueline, it's nuts
