GENS goalies

When I first heard that we had Ron Tugnutt as our goalie coach

I was expecting more improvement from 1 or both of our goalies

I have NOT seen so far - Baille has improved somewhat

Your thoughts

I agree. Right now our team formula is similar to the Leafs. Out shoot the other team but ultimately lose more often than not due to a lack of ability to put the puck in the net (snipers) and average goaltending.

Bailie has the ability to steal a game (Windsor) but has not been consistent.

Does Ron qualify for an overager?

Ron has worked wonders with Bailie and the team has given him confidence. Zador needs to go back to the basics. If a goalie sees the puck he should make the save. Defense can only do so much, Zador makes huge rebounds. Bailie has shown he wants to play. We cannot survive on 1 goaltender.

If you want a top goalie look to that Campbell kid with the Americans who will play in Windsor next year. Our goalies are inconsistent but they aren't the only concern. Ps: Dehaan didn't lose the gold medal game. Take off the blinders.

Who said de Haan lost the gold medal game?

Peter_Puck did in another thread, then after posts by myself and 'the croc' they went in and edited it.

Thanks ogf. I saw that after my post and responded accordingly.

The topic is goalie improvement and coaching

Not our defense - we know we have 3 young 16 yr olds on D

and show great promise for the future

But I see too many stoppable shots missed by the puck stoppers
