The conceivable reason for keeping Resop for the rest of the season is to make sure the Mooseheads don't pick too low in the draft next June... It's time to cut this guy... he is fucking garbage. When I originally read this, I took it to mean that Resop's goaltending skills were garbage....not the person himself. Context is everything. Some posters on these boards know that. Others just look for a chance to create pissing matches....no matter what. That is the context I meant it but I will admit that I left myself open to criticism with my wording, should have added performance in the first post. That is why I shouldn't post when I am pissed off.

Hopefully Durandeau is ok, but this is a clean hit.

i agree that is a solid hockey hit.. but in todays game and with the reputation of the hitter he will likely be suspended
also what the hell happened with the Titan team and the Halifax fans.... read quite a bit on twitter about it and expected something to be posted here but doesn't seem to be

Add that along with a game which was ridiculous along with a disputed Halifax goal in the last minute to tie it up, a fired up Bathurst team which felt it got screwed and a Halifax fan base which was pissed at how the team lost cough<<RESOP>>cough and you get some interaction.

Hopefully Durandeau is ok, but this is a clean hit. Yeah, except for leading with his elbow and leaving the ice surface to make the hit it was completely clean

The video of the hit shown at the game yesterday is much better for showing why he got a game.

Yeah, except for leading with his elbow and leaving the ice surface to make the hit it was completely clean He didn't lead with his elbow, his arm was tucked into his body at the point of contact and his feet were on the ice. The angle of impact caused him to lift into the air. So many people think players leave their feet to make a hit, when in fact it's the impact that lifts them into the air. Durandeau was leaning back watching his pass. This is a textbook example of a player caught with his head down.

I agree that calling a child "garbage" is uncalled for. Calling the performance of a 19yr old goaltender in the Q garbage is not at all the same though. People just need to put some of this stuff into perspective. It's a fringe 19yr old goalie on a rebuilding team. He's never been advertised as a savior or developed to be a top flight #1 goalie....it just kind of worked out that way due to the situation the team is in where upgrading players like him make no sense. Sometimes fans of rebuilding teams seem some glimpses of a great team and forget that they're not there yet. Fans in Saint John or even Bathurst should be ripping their teams apart for giving up 11 goals because the expectations are higher. Fans in a Halifax or Moncton right now need to look at it in a different way because a lot of the reasons for giving up the goals won't still be there in 6 months time. A 19 year old has the right to vote and to legally drink in licensed establishments, so I doubt that Resop would be considered a child. I agree, that's why I posted what I did. Calling a child garbage is uncalled for. But we're also not talking about children here. Calling most human beings garbage is uncalled for.

No problem with that hit... unless there is a different angle that shows if it was initially head contact/targetting head. And that's just because of the new rules. From that video it looked like he was even stepping in to hit him while he had the puck and appeared to keep arms down. Durandeau just forgot to protect himself as he passed it.

What if the sales rep is still learning the ropes and in the first few months of his employment that could stretch into a 30 year career? how many years are we going to give him? he's in his 3rd year and has shown no improvement since his rookie year. no rebound control and stands too far into the net. As others keep saying....context matters. Your sales rep analogy didn't say anything about the experience of the rep. That's why I brought it up. I'm not here to defend the guys right to not play well. You should probably simply move on after a performance like that as any fringe goalie you find for free will provide similar performance.

Durandeau was leaning back watching his pass. This is a textbook example of a player caught with his head down. His head looks to have been turned to the side and the hit was to the chest area. I wouldn't even calling it an example of having his head down as much as it was an example of how not to admire a pass as you skate into a defenceman. Principal point of contact looked to be the chest to me. Only issue I have with it was the defenders feet leaving the ice due to the momentum. That's what might get him a game or 2 from the league.

Wild game! I thought the 8-7 game here in Charlottetown was a crazy one. Hopefully the goalies aren't being too hard on themselves. It's a new day, put that behind you.

Not drafting a goalie before the 6th round between 2012 and 2015 will do that. And also hanging on an American a bit too much because he's an American. It's not like he ever had good stats in the Q.

Bottom line on goaltending- it isn't just one game, Resop has unfortunately had a pretty bad season so far. He showed a lot of promise coming in as backup last year, and played quite a few strong games, but it didn't seem to carry over this year. Gravel has outplayed him by a large margin, and behind the same young team (defence) is maintaining a .900 save % and a fairly decent GAA. No one expected this team to be competitive every game, but usually even with a young team that will lose, having a decent goalie helps them keep it close, and have a chance- at least come away from losses feeling like they've learned something.
That all being said, what the fuck is up with Bathurst's goalies giving up 10? This is a team that's been in the basement for like 5 years, and still can have a game like this. That is more alarming IMO than what is happening in Halifax. No wonder chsb has to blame the refs for goal #10.
