Well, it’s probably time to address the elephant in the room.
I hate the words “goalie controversy” more than almost any other phrase, and I don’t think the Pittsburgh Penguins have quite reached a true controversy yet. Thank goodness. However, there have definitely been some rumblings about a goalie shakeup.
To be fair, each side has its merits. Matt Murray has more than earned his current role as starter, helping the Penguins wrap up their strong season and leading them through the playoffs so far. He’s incredibly talented and has been better than anyone had hoped.
