If one would take a look at all our top guys. Compared, to the rest of the team their +/- is brutal! Get your defensive heads out of your Hash Rate top guys. That's the reason for this.

The Scouts say Wolf doesn't have pro type size. Well, someone else was 6' and165 pounds and his name was Patrick Roy. To lead the WHL last year as a 17 year old is impressive as heck.

Gillies biggest problem is mental, he lacks focus. He's big and athletic, but he is too prone to weak goals and hasn't really shown any improvement since turning pro.
Your right bro. He, gets shaken really easily. He, should be a little better by now. But, he isnt. Schneider looks better then him. Schneider is a good puck handler. I'm, still bothered BY BT taking Raymond over Demko in that one draft year.

Gilles is a big tall goalie like Bishop. Learn Angles. Parsons is athletic as hell but is probably dealing with internal stuff. Love the guy hope he comes back strong.

Put all that development time in him, then just lose him for nothing? T. Parsons had some suicidal problems before last season and had a bad AHL year. I, hope hes ok now. But, in the pros unfortunately theyll see that as a sign of he cant mentally handle the pro life as a Nhl goalie. Maybe, it will click for Gilles this season. Our, young goalies arent fairing to good.

He's on a one way this season and is waiver eligible.
Reasonable chance we lose him for nothing if he fails to make the opening night roster as a backup.

I would take a look at Jarry, he has looked capable at the NHL level.
Comrie hasn't looked good at all in his games with the Jets. He has been consistent in the AHL.
It is time to move on from Gillies, make him a throw in on a trade.
I know what you're saying. If, I were a GM I'd never use a pick on a goalie unless he was Vaslievsky type or Price type. Majority of NHL goalies dont hit there stride until 26-27 years old. Then, most of them are let go by their organizations at 24 and another team picks them up and they become solid 2 years later. So, if I was BT I'd look at other teams goaltenders in the AHL and try and get a steal. Give Gilles 2 more years and see where it goes. Gilles is costing minimal dollars my as well hang on to him now. Kippersoff was a 27 year old goalie and was 3rd on SJ depth chart. He, also had average AHL stats.

Demko has done his time. He's showing huge poise in a pressured time. I was pissed that BT passed on the number one rated goalie (Demko) in favour of McDonald. He, barely showed up in the ECHL! If goalies are a crap shoot then just draft the first rated goalie if u have the chance. Yes, I know other great goalies were drafted later but that's all luck.
