Not as worried about our backup as I was. Conklin could come in for a short period if need be.

yeah he made some fine saves and looked totally comfortable out there

you know his career save percentage, the most important goalie stat imo, is above 90% which is more than acceptable for an nhl minder

ive been trying to figure out why this guys salary is so cheap. i mean hes not an all-star but hes worth more than the 700k i recall them signing him at

He's not good at handling the puck behind the net.............but he played well when in the crease :D

I thought he handled the puck quite well behind the net, and he had some nice break passes if hes teammates didnt go offside those two times.

The Dman bumped into him behind the net.

They're not used to each other.

Buffalo's defensemen skate way better than most of the defensemen in the NHL.

Conklin looked very good out there, especially considering we got outshot 2:1. It is nice to have a good backup goalie to push Miller a little and keep him from losing his focus.
