Garon is starting in net tonight...

[BranWingss]

Garon is starting in net tonight...

I'd expect a lot of starts from Garon as Roloson has simply been awful.

[americaspasttim]

Yeah he's done. I was watching Mike Smith last night with the Coyotes, looking pretty good...

[BranWingss]

TB needs a goaltender ASAP. 5 goals in the first..

[americaspasttim]

That game was horrible. On that 5th goal Hedman should have cleared that **** out though. Pathetic all around...
