Quote from: nb587 on May 17, 2024, 05:48:46 PMAny Ranger fan that was confident of winning last night, after 2 periods, after the awful game in game 5, was either smoking pot or drinking something strong or an eternal optimist. In fact, after rewatching the 3rd period, I'm of a mind that we were incredibly lucky to win. We survived a 3rd period where the puck hitting the post, another hitting the crossbar, another point blank shot from in close that went wide and another awesome (understatement) save from Igor. And, we scored on an iffy penalty call. I'm guessing that the Hurricanes, whom I cant stand, are kicking themselves for having lost a winnable game last night.Is Igor expected to stop the shots that are wide or high, on top of the ones that are on net?

Quote from: katkavage on May 17, 2024, 04:59:00 PMI wouldn't be shocked if he starts the first 3 games. Not sure DJ will be ready until October.
Quote from: DaveBrown74 on May 17, 2024, 04:44:45 PMI personally think they got Lock because they wanted a more durable backup than Taylor given DJ's own lack of durability. I doubt they view Lock as a potential alternative long term solution to DJ, but obviously I don't know for sure what's going on inside their minds.I wouldn't be shocked if he starts the first 3 games. Not sure DJ will be ready until October.
Lock may never even see the field this year. I suspect he probably will for one reason or another, but we certainly don't know that. So it's unclear if he'll even have the opportunity to prove he's better than what he has shown so far in this league.
