The thing is Bowns always concedes 1/2 crap goals a game. It’s a disadvantage meaning the team have to score 3/4 to win every night.
He does it to often and never gets dropped.
Imo he takes his goalie position for granted just because he’s British and knows Lord won’t replace him,
Lord is mister soft and gives players chance after chance, instead he needs to be ruthless.
4 out of 5 defeats conceding 19 goals.
We won’t be winning no league with them stats.
Wow, are you starting a ‘Bownsy out campaign’ with Rabbitoh?
Unless you do, as your user name suggests, have inside knowledge, how can you possibly know what Lord says or does? Bowns is the only player on the team I’ve heard Lord single out in interviews so I doubt you’re correct in this assessment.
You’re also way off on the goals conceded front imho (& certainly stats over the years since Bowns has been in Cardiff don’t back you up (see my post in the previous game thread for a comparison with the import netminders).
Personally I think you also couldn’t be more wrong with the Brit nm statement and you clearly know very little about him but that’s only my opinion based on years of watching him. Brit players in general have to work much much harder to achieve anything in British ice hockey and rarely get any recognition for it. And that is timed by many % for Brit nms.
3 goals last night came from deflections, I think but maybe wrong 2 off Devils players. 1 goal came from not clearing the zone (same happened last weekend).
As you’re talking about winning the league the goals conceded is actually 13 in the last 4 games. For a bit of perspective Owen conceded 14 in their last 4 games and I don’t see Fife fans calling for him to go!
As people often say everyone is entitled to an opinion but as someone who holds Devils in high regard as their 2nd favourite team what I see is some on here who can’t wait to have a pop, who only post after losses and who push the panic button way too soon.
The team aren’t playing well at the moment, for whatever reason. It’s not down to individuals but a combination of things. Forwards aren’t clinical, d are struggling, Bowns conceding and possibly other teams working out how to play Devils being the biggest factor.
It happened at exactly the same time last year & you went on to win a fair amount of silverware.
