Well for better or for worse, atleast Carby is going with a goalie for two consecutive games instead of playing musical chairs

You'd have to think no matter the outcome, Huet gets the Canes. It would be a slap in the face to Huet to not give him a chance to play after he put on a great performance the other night. And the longer he goes without playing, the colder he may be getting.

thats horrible huet should be in net

he had a pretty darn good game against the bruins and he sits for 2 straight games

what exactly has abby done to deserve all this playing time!

abby loses 5-4  against toronto and gets rewarded with another start against the sens ,

if anything huet should be in net tonite the sens,they are the ones in our divison ,this game is more important than the cane game

 

Regardless of what Huet may or may not have done last year, this is very much a "what have you done for me lately" league. I will give Carbo this much. He said from the beginning that he did not have a number one or number 2 goalie and he has stuck with it. Right now Abby has better numbers that Huet. To be honest, neither one of them has set my world on fire this year. They both look unsure, out of position alot, and go down faster than my stock purchases.  Huet will get his ice time. Two starts in a row does not define a number one or number 2 goalie.

Guess you would need to ask carbo that one Skov.  Sometimes it is just a "hunch" that the coach goes with, or how he feels they have been doing in practice. Or sometimes it is how they did in the past against the team they are playing (although I think Huet had a pretty good record against the Sens).

One thing about being a coach...if Abby wins tonite, he is a hero, if he stinks then Carbo is a bum. There is seldom a "grey area".

i hear yea ,i just dont understand it ,huet stood on is head last yr

i understand getting both goalies playing time but i disagree with a 50 /50 split

Im guessing his 47 saves and his 3rd period performace is why Abby is between the pipes tonight. I also agree that Carbo wants to give a different look in net for the Sens shooters.

Again, what's the big deal if Huet sits? Right now Abby's save percentage is .921(10 th in the league). Not bad considering he is tied with Ryan Miller who is supposedly so great. Luongo's is .926, Kipprusoff .909

Theodore is at .877 (36th in the league) and Huet is at .899 (23rd in the league).

Get behind your team, they all where the CH on their chest.

Guy Carbonneau did not reflect long before deciding which goaltender plays the Senators. His choice is David Aebischer.
