Clearly, after last year’s playoffs, Silovs isn’t ready for the National League. He’s a great story but not an nhl goalie, yet., 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clearly, after last year’s playoffs, Silovs isn’t ready for the National League. He’s a great story but not an nhl goalie, yet., I thought he showed well, particularly given his lack of NHL experience, but I've also seen several players simply play well at the right time. Silovs did. Thing is, he still has a lot of work to do. He still had a 2.91 GAA and a .898 save percentage across those 10 playoff games. Wasn't anything special at the AHL level last season either, went 16-11-6 with a 2.74 GAA and a .907 save percentage. It was a step back from his previous campaign. I think he could be a legit NHL backup at some point, but he wouldn't be out of place in Abbotsford this season.

A decent guy and goalie, but not someone the club will win a Cup with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably just had him locked up inside a certain Burnaby Tim Hortons that has egg laying insects and homeless people. He said “Sign the contract and I’ll let you go.” Tadaa! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this means anything about Demko beyond the fact that no one can tell the future and hoping he recovers and expecting he will recover are two very different things. Insurance. By contrast, when JimBob started the contract negotiations (_0_) <--- Jimbo's preferred position when entering into contract negotiations... his not theirs ... to avoid confusion Edited 12 hours ago by Rocket-68 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked Lack, he was fun As for the sort of guy who we'd win a cup with, dunno, that's not fair imo, only one team wins a cup each season What he ends up being is anyone's guess, I think he could be a legit backup, but I do believe he'd be better off stewing a bit longer in Abbotsford I don't see that as a bad thing though, a lot of NHL'ers have to pay their dues in the AHL, and given our renewed commitment to player development in recent years Abbotsford would likely be a good environment 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lanky is a super good goalie who will do great with us. Double Bubble can take the time to get healthy. Maybe when he’s healthy we trade him?

Silovs isn’t nhl ready. Demko will be a while. Not too sure what points to Silovs being ready? He’s a sub .900 guy. Lanky is .912 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
