If you read PenguinPoop on a regular basis, you know there’s been a great goalie debate raging. While I’ve extolled the virtues of both our netminders, Other (Evil) Rick…a staunch Alex Nedeljkovic booster…has panned our starter, Tristan Jarry.
Well, last night the bad guys won…in more ways than one. Jarry was strafed for three goals by the ultra-low scoring Capitals on seven shots (a crispy .571 save percentage) to add fuel to Other Rick’s argument. In the process greasing the skids for a disappointing 4-3 loss at PPG Paints Arena that fairly dripped with playoff implications.
