'Contracts don't stop pucks...Goalies do...'

This is a quote from Bobrovsky on what he thought about the Bryzgalov contract prior to the season start.

At the time I thought this comment was very interesting, almost like BOB saw or knew something. I think he sensed Bryz was a timebomb...

Start BOB against the Pens and for the Classic - it shouldn't even be a discussion...

Did Bob really say that? That's a pretty badass quote, especially if he said it in English. I couldn't agree more with him. Let him play more games and develop into an even better goalie. We know he needs work but he was a rookie last year. Not many goalies come in as a rookie and are stone walls.

That is the quote of a guy that still wants to be the starter. He has outplayed Bryzgolov to a ridiculous degree and yet the Flyers still try to get Bryz out of his funk. Bob deserves a shot tomorrow against the Pens and there is no doubt that if he wins, he gets the classic start.

He said it in one of his live interviews (not sure who it was with). It was translated like all of his interviews (that I have seen at least). He added by saying 'We'll see what happens...' which made it even more of a slap against Bryz. I thought it was very telling at the time, and it now seems to becoming truer by the day.

I'm guessing that BOB knows the real story of Bryz, as he likely hears everything from those in his circles (especailly the Russian players in the league). This may also support the comments from the Phoenix players on Bryz where they made him out to be quite an a$$hole.

This is likely to get very interesting over the next few weeks and months. Maybe Bryz will use it to raise his game and be the star he was supposed to be. Let's hope so. Go Flyers.

Контракты не останавливаются шайбы ... Вратари делать

The Russian version is a lot harder to fit on a bumper sticker.
