Sujet: If They Are Good By Deadline
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>I don't see what's so hard for you to understand. The article literally says" they just have access to 3 goalies between the active roster and taxi squad". So if a team had 2 goalies (say Andersen and Campbell) and went to place Dell on the taxi squad and he was claimed, and the team was in Vancouver for a game, they then don't have access to a 3rd goalie in case of injury. </div></div>

I agree, a team must have 3 goalies on the roster. Where does the article say they are exempt from waivers? Where does anything at all say they are exempt from waivers? Is there anything at all thats outside of your imagination that would actually agree that they are exempt from waivers upon being sent down?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quote:</div>Edmonton and Winnipeg lost their goalies because since the AHL season hasn't started, they have access to other goalies to fill the 3rd spot that don't need to clear waivers. Edmonton has Stuart Skinner and Winnipeg has Arvid Holm.</div>

Even though this is wrong, how does this not apply to Toronto right now? The AHL season still hasn't started and Hutch, who has passed through waivers and wouldn't need to pass through them again, would immediately be available to the team.

So when the AHL season starts and Toronto does not have access to Hutchinson, Dell can be placed on the taxi squad and not exposed to waivers. That's why he's there. Because Toronto has access to 3 goalies right now. Once the AHL season starts, Toronto doesn't have access to a goalie without having to recall them from the minors which may cause delays on teams being able to play. Hence they can place Dell on the taxi squad and not have to worry about having him claimed so he can still technically travel with the team and practice, but he counts as if he was in the AHL for cap reasons.</div></div>

Ok, you seem to be having a lot of trouble with this. What you are saying, and what the article (nor anywhere else) doesnt say is that they are exempt from waivers. Maybe you can explain to me why both Winnipeg and Edmonton lost their 3rd goalies to waivers trying to send them to the taxi squad on Monday and can you provide any evidence at all of what you are saying being true? Even the article you've quoted here doesn't support it.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Ryminister_27</b></div><div>"To keep healthy players in net to let the games go on, teams must have three goaltenders available among the 29 players on their active roster and taxi squads."

Right from TSN. As I said, teams must have at least 3 goalies available between the active roster and taxi squad. If they don't, sending one to the taxi squad does not expose him to waivers.

Toronto currently has Andersen and Campbell on the active roster. Hutchinson is in the minors at Marlies camp (when their season officially starts). So after the AHL season starts in February, Dell can be placed on the taxi squad and not exposed to waivers.</div></div>

No where in what you quoted does it say they are exempt from waivers. In fact the only spot where 'waivers' shows up in the article is where it says all players going to the taxi squad must clear them. Teams must have 3 goalies on their rosters but the 3rd goalie is still subject to waivers before going to the taxi squad. We have seen evidence of this when Edmonton lost Forsberg to Carolina and Winnipeg lost Comrie to New Jersey. We have 2 actual examples from a few days ago of what you are saying not being true. Dell is subject to the exact same waivers Forsberg and Comrie were exposed to and doesn't stand a chance of make it through them, hence Toronto leaving him on their NHL roster for now.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>there is no bias. This is an AHL level guy elevated due to poor play by others around him. The guy starting below him is Bogosian, we aren't talking about hurdles here. He spent till he was 27 in the AHL for a reason. You just don't seem to get that. Like I said, he's got a lot of support to help those under lying numbers. That doesn't mean he's good. Hell there are years where Ruhwedel had good underlying numbers as well. No one is mistaking him for a top 4 defense. Matter of fact his numbers were very comparable to Holl's.
So understand the argument. When you get 40+ minutes of ice time a night from 2 stacked lines, it will carry the numbers of guys. It doesn't mean they are good.</div></div>

So your argument is 'Sure everything thats objective tells me I'm wrong but hes not a kid so it can't be right.' and you want me to believe for some mysterious reason it's not a biased take?

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>the +/- is always looked at as the worst stat in hockey. People like to cherry pick it when it somehow means something for them. But it doesn't really mean much because the number is so much on the rest of the team.

If that's the stat you are gonna go with you have an uphill climb.
This is not some one person opinion on Holl. It's been one clearly stated by a lot of people on these boards.</div></div>

You realize I talked about the underlying numbers first right? We can go with xGF% and Corsi's(50.66% and 52%, positive numbers relative to teammates despite twice as many defensive zone starts), scoring chances (SCF% is 59%), etc. All the underlying numbers say Holl had a great game tonight and his underlying numbers from last season will back those up. As you suggested to someone earlier in this thread, you need to check your bias.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>pharrow</b></div><div>I honestly think it is what it is. Yeah guys do come in a little rusty now etc.... but it's just from a talent prospective. They don't have but 3 guys back there with any. That can't be.
Given they don't get much help from the bottom 6 to help them and it just doesn't add up. They had 4 guys on the ice in the forwards today that were just not very helpful in any aspect of the game.
You add that with 3 bad defense and a goalie who looks to be continuing a shaky year and it's hard to call this teams defense any better, or say it will improve. If you know you got a weakness in the defense you got to at least try to help them out somehow, but they got slower and worse in the bottom 6 so it just magnifies the issues there. This team made fundamental mistakes in the offseason. While every other team is out there looking to get younger and faster they bring in 2 guys over the age of 38. It's not hard to see why that's gonna fail. Then bring in a guy like Simmonds who is done and Barabanov, I'm not sure he's even NHL quality. They gave him 4 minutes of ice time so it is what it is.
It's one game. But every team is just at 1 game too. Short seasons are gonna be defined in the first 20.</div></div>

I'm wondering who you think the '3 bad defensemen' are because I have a feeling you are talking about Holl out despite him being our best defensive dman tonight. Other than that our 3rd line held their own and outchanced the opposition. You were talking about bias earlier but the numbers are pretty clear on whos speaking from a biased perspective.
