Good game though 2/9/2006 9:54:37 PM |

No big deal. We had two bad bounces and Grahame played out of his mind. Team played an excellent game, just couldn't pot the equalizer.

^ GTFO, go learn something about hockey, then come back.
Ward is not Scott Stevens and he's not Bobby Orr. With that said, he's an extremely solid positional defenseman with a physical edge, and he isn't afraid to pinch or join the rush when it's feasible. Before the season, he was a question mark with the new rules. As the season started, it became clear that Ward had stepped up his game to the level of a few years ago. If he wasn't any good, he wouldn't get more than 18 minutes a night. We've got nine defensemen, and Ward is top three in TOI.
It's also worth pointing out that he potted a screamer (OMF WALLINJR.) on the fly TWENTY-THREE SECONDS into the game.

They mentioned this on the Mike and Mike show this morning. They were laughing because theodore has always had a full head of hair.
They quipped...."maybe he was doing 8 years of premptive treatment"
or something like that.2/10/2006 11:08:59 AM |

If you actually watched the game last night, we dominated pretty much every part of the game. We just couldnt get past their back up keeper. We played solid defense and had really good offensive possessions. If it werent for two of there horrible shots bouncing off our players we'd be fine. GO CANES! 2/10/2006 11:11:46 AM |

Actually, we got passed their backup keeper. 3 goals in 8 shots.
It's Grahame who is actually their number one but they switch off a lot like we do with Cam Ward.
Not to mention with that preformance Grahame may have solidified his starting spot as Team USA's goalie in Turino

Well, it's an optional I believe, short, and very laid back. Ladd, Commodore, LaRose, Adams, Hedican, Ward, Babchuk, and Vasicek are the only ones that I can recall being out there this morning. 2/10/2006 2:36:49 PM |

cam ward needs to improve his side to side movement. it seems like most of the goals he gives up are ones where he can't get across the crease very quick. 2/10/2006 9:40:41 PM |

We had a bunch of blown opportunities in this game. I think I saw twice where our players missed a wide open net. Guess the puck just wasn't bouncing our way tonight.
On a side note, Irbe was just on TV leading the Latvian Olympic team in the opening ceremonies. 2/10/2006 10:27:15 PM |

i think Ward will... hes just missing a little something that i saw in him earlier this year. 2/10/2006 10:30:23 PM |
vinylbandit All American 48079 Posts user info edit post |
Holy fucking shit.
^^^^^ Babchuk can be that guy, but he's going to have to earn his spot.
^^^^ No idea what spurred this comment, but if it's the goal tonight that Ward didn't get to laterally, there wasn't much he could do. It took a fucking crazy-ass bounce off a body that threw the timing all off. In general, Cam is very solid laterally. He makes up what he lacks in Gerber-style slinkyness by moving well side-to-side when down. He also seals up very well on the whole (the Crosby goal tonight was icky).
^^^ I don't know what "scouts" you're talking about, but no one who knows anything is going to judge a GOALTENDER on half a season of NHL backup duty, especially at 22 years of age. Ward dominated the WHL in his day and had a fantastic first professional season in 04-05.
As for this game, the Canes were flat as flat could be and they still got three by Caron, who was having a good night seeing the puck, albeit with a few lapses in close. No worries over here.

Weight is not the problem. Aaron Ward is the problem. He is repsonsible for blowing the last two games. For example, in the Tampa he was responsible for two goals. He deflected in one and passed another and took a un necessary tripping penalty to set up a 5 on 3. hes worthless
WARD IS WORTHLESS!! 2/11/2006 12:00:43 AM |

^^^^ are you fucking kidding me?
A. Wards "Deflection" goal that you're talking about - he was standing in front of the net playing the man in front, like he's supposed to and a guy took a shot from the top of the slot, it hit his shoulder/chest and redirected in - what is he supposed to do? That was not him at all
B. Wards "unneccesary" tripping penalty - If my memory serves me correctly, the guy crossed into the zone, along the or close to the boards and Ward was there, and didn't touch him and if he did in fact touch him - he did not impede his progress or trip him in any such way. It was a bullshit penalty by all aspects of the word.
Get a clue dude.
