Why is it

That EVERY TIME he gives up a goal in a somewhat critical situation someone always says “Well SOMEtimes you JUST HAVE TO BAIL OUT YOUR DEFENSE” Can anyone see the irony here?

by illinikc33 on Jan 30, 2010 8:19 PM CST up reply actions  

What?

Even when the defense breaks down, your goalie has to come to the rescue. The 4th goal was Huet’s only bad goal. Two were tipped/redirected. The 4th was on him. You would hope that at least one of those two tips he might have been able to do something.

But he didn’t.

by San Diego Smooth Jazz Man on Jan 30, 2010 8:38 PM CST up reply actions  

Jesus Christ

Do you people not understand what irony is? Lets break it down:

EVERY TIME AN OPPOSING TEAM SCORES A GOAL OFF OF A DEFENSIVE BREAKDOWN, you people say “GOD HUET SOMETIMES A GOALIE HAS TO BAIL OUT HIS DEFENSE” It is ironic because you bitch about that EVERY time he gives up a goal when, by your logic, he should only be bailing them out SOMETIMES.

There has to be some sort of BABIP

by Rage and Grace on Jan 30, 2010 8:39 PM CST up reply actions  

it would be very difficult to translate bapip

To hockey because the defenders in baseball are stationary whereas in hockey everyone is moving and a shot from center ice would be measured against one from 10 feet with no interference. With that said I think Kanw was 1 on 1 with Ward about 5 times with nothing to show. I still can’t believe they only got 2 goals and then Car bunts in a high shot and gets a redirect from I believe Seabrook which Huey should have covered since it was 30 feet out.

by Duck99 on Jan 30, 2010 8:52 PM CST via mobile up reply actions  

this is true

but I’m simply thinking distribution of probability. Again like you said it would be very difficult because you would have to actually have a weight on skill set for netminders and I’m sure a dozen other attributes.

Being realistic might be the best solution

Huet is an average goaltender on a very good defesive team. But, far too often cannot up his level to steal the Blackhawks a game. Thus, the ‘Hawks come March 4th may have to look elsewhere for a better goaltender. Who that would be? I don’t know, but I’m sure the braintrust has someone in mind.

It’s just a reality that if the ‘Hawks want to win the Cup our defence can carry us so far, our goaltender may have to steal a game for us to get where we want to go. I don’t think the ’Hawks can go as far as they did last season with average goaltending.

"Negative energy is better than no energy at all"- "Iron" Mike Keenan

by hawks61 on Jan 30, 2010 8:52 PM CST up reply actions  

agreed

They will only go as far as a goalie can carry you.

Huet has yet to carry any game. This is why the concerns many have are very valid.

I know many of you are trying to stay positive, but please be a little realistic and look at the mans track record. When our defense has a tough game he can’t seem to hold it up.

Yes, some of the breaks were defense, but a good goalie (one that will win a cup), wins those chances.

Not being a hater, just assessing a the very achilles we have.

by illinikc33 on Jan 30, 2010 9:08 PM CST up reply actions  

Lights out in Game 5, but basically turned out the lights at the UC because of his play in Game 4.

The 7-game series between Washington and Philadelphia is a better indication on how he can perform in the playoffs. And it wasn’t good according to everyone from Jasper’s Rink, that’s all I’m saying.

Easy bud

Don’t play that “Fan since birth” thing.

Most people do believe he really is the achilles heel, but our defence (contrary to opinion) isn’t as great as others want to believe it is. And because of this management may have to make a decision on either sticking with Huet or dealing for another. It’s not so much Huet as it’s the defence.

Honestly as far as picking up a better goaltender

I dont think thats gonna happen, they arent exactly a dime a dozen and I wouldnt want to sell the farm for a true number one when we are doing so well with what we have (Huet/Niemi rotation). Ive seen Huet give up some weak ass goals and I dont trust him in a game where we need 40+ saves, but the beauty of the Hawks D is that it is extremely rare that the guy has to face that many

by BigCSouthside on Jan 30, 2010 9:13 PM CST up reply actions  

I'm tired of hearing this.

Not to pick on you but it’s something that irks me. It’s not the quantity of shots faced but the quality of shots he faces is the problem. Maybe it isn’t so much Huet as it’s the defence that never bothers to move anybody from the net allowing difficult tip-in shots, breakaways, and 2-on-1’s.

It’s because of this the ‘Hawks either need to improve their defence or get a new goaltender. This combination isn’t going to work.
