@miamiguydylan @Jeter45 All reports say he asked for more term and wouldn’t budge. He settled for what he could get. Props to Zito for not being strong armed.

@AlexiLalas 10x worse btw

[5 @jem5___]

@twinefinder @CClaytonReed @BizNasty2point0 They already had the better goalie

[5 @jem5___]

@TheInSeasonSC @FriedgeHNIC Are you talking about the back to back cup seasons or the ones he won a Vezina Trophy? *genuine question*

[5 @jem5___]

@MrKoivisto @ABaumgartner91 Deal, I’ll see you in (however long of a contract he signs elsewhere) years

[5 @jem5___]

@Bcallow_74 This sounds like Blackhawks fans when they traded Seth Jones just for him to be an integral part of a cup and return back to (beyond?) his prior form. Maybe, it’s not the player?

@MrKoivisto @ABaumgartner91 I don’t need tickets, I’m a STH and will be there when the number goes up in the rafters.

@nystevo_ @ESRsenal2 @DireRavennn @MikeBartner You’re literally proving the point that you can have the best goalie on the planet and still have an absolute dogshit team. Adin Hill and Brandon Bussi have rings. Helly, Sorokin, Shesterkin have 0.

@stevezieskidoo @NHLHodgkinson There’s no goalie on earth that will guarantee team success. Lundqvist, Price, Luongo, Rinne, CuJo….. list goes on and on. Bob was 36 with 2 Vezinas, benched for backups, and arguably on the worst contract in NHL history before getting his rings.

[5 @jem5___]

@stevezieskidoo @NHLHodgkinson Yeah……

[5 @jem5___]

@jg_radman @GraemeHobbs @JFreshHockey 97% isn’t getting the job done.

[5 @jem5___]

@BetweenThieves7 @MikeBartner Exactly, Bob was a product of circumstance like 99% of goalies who find success. If this wasn’t the case, Winnipeg would have recent cups, as would the Rangers and Islanders.

@inalonelyplace_ @MikeBartner It’s crazy how Bob won cups at 36 & 37, but now Markstrom is senile and needs arthritis meds.

@nystevo_ @MikeBartner If your mom had a dick she’d be your dad.

[5 @jem5___]

@BKHockeyTalk @ESRsenal2 Yeah, it’s a huge part of it. But if you didn’t have that data, as you don’t with Markstrom, you’d say Bob’s a mediocre goalie based on his regular season numbers. After all, he got sat down the stretch in all 3 cup runs for no name backups.

[5 @jem5___]

@Rainytuesday3 @ProducerDrew_ There is zero pressure here…. He left Canada and NY markets for Florida ……

[5 @jem5___]

@BrettRocker95 @BKHockeyTalk Helly has as much postseason success as you and me.

[5 @jem5___]

@BKHockeyTalk @ESRsenal2 Either has Bob outside of the playoff runs. You’d be happy with Helly meanwhile he’s a regular season stat padder.

[5 @jem5___]

@nystevo_ @MikeBartner Because having Sorokin has won you something since 1983
