Class is in session…
Even if you’re not a Canadiens fan, you should absolutely read this if you want to have any understanding at all about how much you can actually blame goaltenders for goals conceded. I have at times been especially harsh on both Price and Halak in this space – if you take away Halak’s brain-dead giveaway behind the net against the Islanders, the upshot of this piece is “Sean is going to shut the fuck up about our goalies for a while”.
Seriously, it’s an amazing read.

About
- Our guide and leader
Hello all, this here is a sports blog run by two guys from Brooklyn, Brendan and Sean, who between them have an interest in almost everything- soccer, hockey, basketball, boxing, MMA, some NFL, some baseball- you name it. In particular we’ll cover Arsenal FC who we both follow; the NY Knicks, the NJ Nets, NY Rangers and boxing (Brendan); and the Montreal Canadiens, Celtic FC, LA Lakers and San Francisco Giants (Sean). We’ll also both tackle MMA and the NY Giants and Jets from time to time, as well as leaguewide issues and the role of sports in society. Feel free to look around and use the categories to find what you’re looking for. Thanks for stopping by!
We can be reached via email at shaddax@aol.com for comments or questions.
