Bob in WInter Classic

Ilya just said he isn't starting tomorrow. Interesting call by Laviolette... Not a bad one, but not what I expected.

Bob really deserves to start. He is playing very well this season. The goalie coach gets a pat on the back for the improved positioning.

I agree with starting Bob he's been the better of the 2 so far. I think within the next 2 seasons Bob will not only be the #1 here but a top tier NHL goalie. Which may make Bryz's contract a huge issue unless he was planning on going back to Russia.

I have no problem with Bob pushing Bryz....why does everyone think that this is a bad thing? Nice to know that your backup goalie is performing like a starter! I hope that Bob continues to play well all season but I still predict that Bryz will be the man come playoff time.

Down the road if Bob is stealing a lot of starts Bryz will most likely not be happy about that and accept a trade. As we've seen guys with so called immovable contracts can be moved....its all good!

Bob has been the better player thus far, so he should get the start. Pretty easy call, IMO.

Nah, the salary floor will make his contract very attractive to a team with a low-end payroll.

I definitely agree with your assessment of Bob, though. I think he is still going to get much better.

Bryz for a 7th?
