Whiny Goalies

[IPv6Freely]

Is there any goalie more whiny than Lundqvist? I was thinking maybe Rask or Quick but neither of them are even close.

I think Quick is up there with Lundqvist imo.

Ben Bishop is pretty bad. He dives, kicks the net off, and whines; the triple whammy. Once he even complained the home crowd was too loud, and the volume was responsible for him making a bad turnover. 

I've never heard him whine, but Price seems very high maintenance, but that's different. 

In terms of non-NHLers, I'd say Alexander Salak. He's like Rask with blaming defensemen, but worse.

Wow that’s pretty bad. Had no idea they said that.

Lehner is horrible for playing the blame game with his team. Just stop a puck bud.

To be fair to Hank, the Rangers dmen can be pretty awful.  I'd be in a bad mood, too.

To be fair his team in front of him is pretty bad. But I agree he’s kind of a headcase.

Maybe but man it’s like every time he gets touched he throws a fit. He even got mad when he tried to windmill and couldn’t hang on!

Few goalies today grind through. The Hextall/Smith days are gone when goalies acted on a play or mistake instead of calling on mommy (the refs).

Hexy and Smith played goal like it SHOULD be played. Skate through my crease and you’ll get a slash. F*** with me and you’ll get a mouth full of stick. You can’t depend on your d-men to protect you; you HAVE to take a stand yourself.

Whining should get you punched in the mouth.

If you're referring to last night's game against Toronto, and you're talking about the play I think you are, he was pissed because the Toronto player swatted at his glove to knock the puck out.  I am not a blind Ranger fan though, Hank whines quite often.  That and the death stare.

Start hacking or swatting at my glove, the least that happens is that I grab your stick. There have been a few blocker punches thrown when my glove gets touched. You may hear “wanker!”, “tosser!”, “wally woofter!”, “shirt lifter!” or “uncle f*cker!” when I react, but no whining. No place in hockey for whining. 

As I say- don’t throw a fit, silently take action.
