Is there a “Gold Bonus” for Army or Pride?

Post by stlblue06 »

I’m trying to comprehend how a goalie that has struggled badly most regular seasons and most importantly this one, easily his worst…..is getting so many non back to back starts!!

It’s one thing if the other goalie (Hofer) isn’t much better but it’s insulting to Hofer to have to watch so many games when he’s been one of the best goalies in the NHL for 2 months.

Obviously Army is stepping down after this season and there is no more lying to himself about screwing up that cup team in record time. So it appears he is putting a lot of pride in his finals team Canada GM position. The problem is that ChatGTP or a monkey could pick a gold metal team with the talent TC has. But Binner is his guy. Most that had a say probably said no way but he insisted or whatever.

Now the Blues are a training camp for Binner. The issue there is that it’s making things worse. Every extra game started that 50 fails is messing with his head.

What a shat show

Hofer been getting the majority of games. Binner you still need to try and get playing better whether you want to keep him or trade him.

Hofer hasn’t been much better recently. 5 of his last 7 games he’s put up a sub .880 save pct. Maybe the guys in of them should start doing their jobs?

2-11-1 in his last 14 games while starter 50% of the games in January when the Blues season is on the line.

Hofer: 10-5-1 since November 29th

4-2-1 in January vs 1-6-1

50 has started 1 MORE game than Hofer, my mistake.

This is stuff that would get anyone else canned and banned from the league for extreme neglect and [deceleration]
