johnnyhasbeen Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 You guys may remember last year, after calling for Budaj to be publically tarred, I had to post to eat crow if you will. He had turned it around and played admirably for us. Well, Lo and Behold! He has managed to find his form again and once again I owe him an apology, although if next year he requires me to call him out again before he gets it together I may not be so kind. LOL. Great job coming in and saving the game! Now that is backup goaltending! I still question the rebound control, but if he had that he would be a starter.. Keep up the good work!

The Chicoutimi Cucumber Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I never quite got the hate-on for Budaj. He is a proven middling-quality NHL 'tender. it would have been unlikely for him to suddenly turn into a .750 save % guy, and a few dodgy games should not have been enough to overwhelm his wider track-record. He's not going to be lights out on a regular basis, but nor is he going to be an anchor; which is say the guy's a quality backup and always has been.

JoeLassister Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 All I wanted from Budaj was to control the freaking juicy rebounds he gives. If he does just that, I'll be more than fine with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toronthab Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 He certainly made some excellent stops last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMMR Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 He has been all we could ask for and more this year. His first game was terrible but hes been average or great since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habs rule Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Be interesting to see if we sign him in the off season, I think I would based how he has played this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
