Brian Boucher had a really good series against the Devils.

Funny, I don’t see either Theodore’s or Varlamov’s name in that picture.

If you would have told me that I would be seeing this 2 weeks ago, I would have laughed in your face and probably punched you in the neck for being stupid.

How does it feel Geoff?

Can't think of something catchy to say here...I suck.

How did you motivate him to play this well? Send him a fan letter expressing your love and belief in him? A kiss on the cheek? Something far dirtier?

It was very similar to this.

come on i’m excited to see if he can channel that all time record shut out streak for the next round, what was it, 5 games in a row without giving up a goal

pretty much only way those numbers improve

If he could shut out the Capitals for 4 games in a row, then he should get some sort of award.

How about he doesn’t get bought out over the off season? :-) Boucher’s series against the Devils made next year’s situation even more complex.

Made things simpler if you ask me. If Homer is able to get a young goalie with relatively little NHL experience (Bernier, Neuvirth), having someone who is clearly capable of starting while you work that young goalie in isn’t a bad thing. Boosh is starting game 1 next year, no doubt about that. But as the season progresses, if the young goalie proves himself to be an NHL goalie, the friendly competition starts.

Of course, that’s assuming Homer doesn’t just re-sign Leighton and announce to the world that his team finally has Cup-quality goaltending.
