It never works and it just gives them 2 less minutes to try to tie it.

Re: Can we please stop pulling the goalie?
Sadly, they'll never stop, even though it's almost amusing at this point because you know for a fact what's going to happen. I will say this, though, this team is either cursed or has got some bad juu-juu going because they make hitting the empty net from a 150 ft look like a free throw.WeWentBlues0819 wrote: ↑29 Dec 2025 21:39 pm It never works and it just gives them 2 less minutes to try to tie it.
Tonight's shot was dead-center in the middle of the empty net. -37 in goal differential now ...
-37
You'd think they'd at least be a little more strategic with their goalie pulls. Maybe only under 1 minute when there's clear posession in the offensive zone. But nope...
No other team is even close to being as bad as this team at giving up goals and failing to score them. The fact that had they tied or won tonight would have put them in position for a WC spot is hilarious and a testament to how much *ss the Avs, Stars, and Wild are kicking.
