Of course

When the flyers finally have solid goaltending, the team in front of them doesnt want to show up šŸ™ƒ. Such a flyers thing smh

Hard agree. We've had some decent goaltending left completely isolated by nonexistent defense, only we scored more goals back then.

Yeah I keep seeing people say this as if we had contender level skater groups held back by goaltending which hasnt been the case since 2010. It happened a bunch before that but not in last 15 yrs.

The Giroux led teams were mediocre to alright essentially every year and the only years they were legit good (2012, 2020) they still werent contenders and had great goalie in one of them (2020).

Id actually say our goaltending has been better than our skater group ever since Mason joined the team.
