seeing-eye pucks and big screens in front, but them corners and sides of the net is wide open.  Can't really fault the goalie, but you'd like the body to be in position to get at least one of those....on occasion.
Not putting this L on Lindy, but overall, I give the edge to Kuemper in I think he gives us a better chance to win games.  His size is a factor and he's not a awesome save kind of guy (usually), but he usually keeps us in games.
Lindy I think just plays small in net.  Not that he didn't absolutely play well when Kuemper was out for a long stretch.

I know the sample size is small but DAMN 19 looks great.....
He has looked much better than I ever expected out of him again.  I was at the Philthy game and saw him up close.  It looked like he labored up the ice one shift and I was like uh-oh....but then next shift he was skating hard and playing physical.  He really seems not to have lost a step....except maybe the age.  He never had speed to burn to begin with, but he seems to be at least on a compete level.  His puck moving and management skills are so good, and his passing seems to be as good as ever.
Nice to see for all his effort.

Yea, in tight/small/short spaces Nicky looks prime! Bummer he can't cover 150-200' of ice though. But hopefully they can compensate. Same deal with Oshie.
