    Hockey Goaltending Is Pathetic

    No one can stop shots anymore, wild west on the ice now and whoever has puck lasts wins.

    It is open game and I can score a goal now in the watered down NHL.

    I've always wondered why don't hockey teams just find the biggest, fattest man they can and have him lay down in front of the goal.

    jj you should maybe forward your goaltending video to the NHL clubs. You can likely get a job as a roving minor league goaltending instructor with some organization.

    its been great for me
    i've been betting every game over since the season started
    jump on board now before the linemakers catch up
    didnt they implement some rule changes just to increase scoring the last couple years?

    Ya, they increased the amount of penalties called, they added the "no goalie zone" to prevent goalies from playing dump-ins, they also took away the 2 line pass...

    Taking the OVER in every game is the worst strategy ever...

    Although taking over 5 is never a bad idea.

    if your 500 pounds you just have to stand in goal, no need to skate and keep your stick on the ground. Goalies are the most unathletic people I have ever seen in pro sports..

    jj goalies are athletic. 500 pound guys cant even move, much less have the reaction time that is needed to play any sport.

    Golfers are not really athletic either, most golfers could not even throw a fukkin football 10 yards.

    Kenny Dryden could not even walk fukkin straight and was an excellent goaltender

    You don't have to be big to be a good goalie,here is a perfect example of a small goalie playing great...like most of the great goalies he's french canadian.

    jj, you're impressing me more and more each day with hockey.. how do you know Kenny Dryden? wow.

    yesterday you make a great thread about Shootout also.. you really do understand hockey.. you always used to say at MW how much you hate hockey and you never watch it.. now you've become a hockey expert? lol


    jj, a 500 lb guy would never cover that whole net.. that NHL net is huge.. looks small on tv, but it is big.. jj, you need a 1100 lb guy.. maybe that mexican who just got married.. he's the fattest guy in the world.. he could easily have an NHL contract as a goalie.. jj, he might have a 0.34 GAA.. and have 69 shutouts a year..

    Of course JJ knows Kenny, jJ knows his Canadian politics.

    Ken Dryden is the federal member of parliament representing the riding of York centre (Toronto):

    Net is 4x6 you rooster sucker. Goalies today are by far better than years past. Unreal.

    I think all of this debate is coming from that Budwesier hockey commercial. How big would you have to be to basically fill up the goal like the guy in the commercial?

    26-19 thru yesterday
    plus 2 pushes on 5's
    i didnt play the overseas games which went 1-3 over
    so my actual record so far has been 25-16

    today is another winning day so far 5-1 with 1 pending

    new strategy started today is 1 unit over on every game
    2 units on the even 5 totals

    Golfers should be able to throw a football very far, it is basically the same muscles that allow you to do both I think. I bet Mickelson could sling it 65 yards
