Goalies almost never get credit for winning a game, but they always get blamed for losing a game.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If you never concede a goal, you're going to win more games than you lose.
Goal scoring is a recurring theme. If you aren't scoring then you aren't going to win games. That's obvious.
As a goalie, you must stay positive. And if you do make a mistake, well, those things happen when you play my position.
Some guys lay their fannies out there every night - they play the game at such a high level, and they give so much that, frankly, they don't get credit for it. And I think it's tragic sometimes.
As soon as you make mistakes, or you have an off year, even if it's not your fault as a quarterback... I've always said the quarterback and the head coach always get too much blame when you lose and too much credit when you win.
Football's not just about scoring goals - it's about winning.
It's too easy to blame other people in football.
Unfortunately, sometimes the fans forget who puts the money and passion into the club. It's funny, but when you win, it's the coach and the players who are responsible, but when you lose, it's the owner's fault; but that's football.
I think to compare any time you win a Stanley Cup would be unfair to all the players from all the teams.
Wins are the most important measure for goalies, I think. Certainly it's a great accomplishment.
