Well, ladies and gentlemen, we have ourselves a goalie carousel. We all hoped it wouldn't happen again, but it has. After 30 or so games of swearing that Peter Budaj was the starting goalie for the Colorado Avalanche and that Andrew Raycroft would merely step in here and there to give him a breather, head coach Tony Granato has scrapped that plan.
Tonight, when the Avalanche face the visiting Phoenix Coyotes at the Pepsi Center in Denver, Andrew Raycroft will be in net. It will be his third start in five games. That sounds like a little more work than a designated backup is probably expected to get. You'd assume Raycroft was getting the call because Budaj has lost his last three starts. But nooooo, that's not it at all:
"He’s coming off two very solid games," said Granato. "Peter [Budaj] has been very good for us all year, so it has nothing to do with Peter not playing well. It’s just the fact that Andrew went into two tough buildings and found ways to win."
Right. Is the Pepsi Center now a "tough building?" If it's not, then I'm failing to see how Granato's statement has anything to do with his decision to play Raycroft at home tonight. And let's not even mention that Budaj has been left out to dry by his team a lot lately, especially on Sunday when the Avalanche pretty much failed to show up at all against the Panthers, getting shut out 0-3 in a building where they had always enjoyed much success. Budaj's save percentage was .910 despite the pathetic loss.
So Raycroft gets the start, but this totally isn't a sign of any controversy or the beginning of another Quenneville-esque goalie carousel that always worked so well in the past.
Since I can't watch Raycroft play without breaking into a cold sweat, I'll be skipping this game tonight. I hope it goes well. Unfortunately, if it does, Peter Budaj might never get to play goalie again.

And, the number one sign of a desperate NHL coach: throwing a goalie at the non-producing offense problem.

I can’t believe the number of idiots out there still running around yelling 5-1-0 as reason to play Raycroft. They refuse to look at the fact that he, Detoilet aside, he hasn’t beaten a team with a winning record. They also don’t want to except that Budaj’s numbers are still better. Or that Raycroft has gotten most of his games after the Avs failed to support Budaj and probably got chewed out in the locker room. All they see is wins, wins, wins.
But oh well, since when do we expect reason to win out.
Raycroft is 0-2-0 in his career versus the Coyotes…I thought about skipping this game, but I want to be informed if I have to bash him more. I may need to start drinking in order to get through the game though.

I’ll listen to abit of it, then hopefully I’ll have other stuff to do and miss the demise of Raycroft’s Vezina chances. Reading his supporters opinions you’d hink he was the favourite to win it, Or it would be out of him and Osbad because they have such good winning records and thats all that matters, apparently.

Looking at TG’s quote I’m really confused. Two tough buildings? I’ll give him the Joe Luios is tough(to make it out alive) but since when did the St Petes Times Forum become tough.
Andrew went in and ‘found’ ways to win. Since when has he been a one man team, It’s not like he entered the rink and did everything. He had so much help from the D it’s not funny. he hasn’t stolen anything, except playing time from a better goalie.

I realize we are all a bit pissed off still about the Florida game. After tonight, there won’t be a game until Saturday so I, for one, chose to enjoy this game seeing as it will be like 4 long days until we beat the Wings again.

I really, really want people to see how Raycroft truly plays when he doesn’t have the entire team working hard to keep pucks from getting anywhere near the net, yet I really, really want the Avs to win cuz…well….winning is fun.

I think the Caps have realized that. When Johnson becomes starter over a $4.5million dollar player and there’s calls for Varlamov to replace Theo as backup theres some serious problems, none that will surprise Theo though.

On my positive note
I just saw Chris Stewart transition from skating forwards to backwards and he didn’t fall down. The recent article about Arnason’s inability to do this piqued my curiousity, so I’m amused it was the first thing I noticed. That and how much I liked Steve Reinprecht when he played for us.

that 20/20 lasik one makes me think how scary it must be for a pro athlete to go in for that surgery. i had it and had to think long and hard about it. for them, it’s a livelihood and dream that is at risk as well as vision cuz vision suitable for everyday won’t fly in hockey or other sports. brave guys, i gotta say.

This is the extent of his remarks....
The game started off dubiously for Andrew Raycroft. A long, stoppable-looking slap shot from Phoenix forward Joakim Lindstrom eluded Raycroft’s catching mitt. The short-side goal made it 1-0 Coyotes at the 4:39 mark
The Coyotes tied it at 6:48 of the third, on an Olli Jokinen goal. Raycroft allowed a big rebound to a Peter Mueller shot from the right side, punching the shot away with his right blocker.
LAME!
