He's playing well enough and he's young enough where I could see them extending him.

So the question becomes, do you trust your young guys enough to do that?

If he's playing well and they're going to get into the playoffs and this two-headed thing of Shilovs and Skinner keep going, do you just keep them both?

How about Malkin's a plus 16?

Did you ever see that so early in the season?

Yeah, and you're right about the pressure.

It's totally off compared to what he was facing, even though he played well.

Joe, you go back to the playoffs last year.

He was in the Stanley Cup Finals a couple of times.

The last game, he...

Yeah, they lost, and you want to blame goalies all the time?

It wasn't that he just went out and gave up six goals.

Tight-checking games, there were good goals against good teams, but he was the losing goaltender.

I think that pressure does build up on them.

You convinced he's for real?

This is for real with him?

He's been for real.

He's only 28.

I don't see why not.

What about Miroshov?
