*cringes* Oh god why? That is a bad word in this household. Why? Geez, that makes me appreciate Quick even more! Of course if you want to bring up bad goaltenders, there's always Grant Fuhr! 1-7-3 in '94-'95. Would someone explain to me what they were thinking trading Zhitnik for Fuhr when they already had Hrudey? I still bang my head against the wall thinking about that trade!

I'm not saying that uni-brow was a great goaltender or anything...but I think the Kings had one of their worst d-squads in franchise history in front of him. They would have made Roy look bad.

They were thinking they were trading for the Fuhr that was AWESOME in 95-96...and that Zhitnik drank so much it would catch up with him sooner rather than later.

Believe it!

It's not even 9am yet and this thread makes me want to drink.

I still have no recollection of this Taylor guy whatsoever. The name doesn't even ring a bell. I think you are all just messing with me. It is an elaborate hoax. It's an imaginary goalie.
