Puck[edit]

I think he said Carolina Hurricanes took the puck, but he think he is getting it back framed, at the Dallas-Star game March 25 2020, so keep an eye out for if this is happening or not.--Moedk (talk) 22:22, 25 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Here is him saying Carolina got the puck, anyone seen him getting it back? --Moedk (talk) 19:22, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

He isn't the first emergency goaltender to record an NHL win[edit]

That credit should go to Scott Foster for his 6-2 Blackhawks win, shouldn't it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Gmrussell85 (talk • contribs) 08:30, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No. As it states in the Scott Foster article, the goalie who was injured, Delia, received the credit for the win.

A credit for a win is awarded to the goalie who spent the most time on the ice, out of fairness to that goalie, not the person who was the goalie when the game concluded. Torontopedia (talk) 11:40, 27 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

That's not true. A goalie is credited for the win in hockey if they are in net when their team has scored the goal that allows it to be one head in the final score. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.172.161.29 (talk) 20:54, 14 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Blackhawks already had the lead when Foster went into the net. Chicago did not lose the lead, as Foster stopped all shots on goal during his time in the game, so the game-winning goal had already been scored and Delia was credited with the win. The game-winning goal was scored while Ayres was in the net, so he was credited with the win, making him the first EBUG with that distinction. Imzadi 1979 → 20:42, 17 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why does the infobox say "Caught" and not "Catches"?[edit]

The game he played in was this season (2019-20) and he could possibly play again. Shouldn't "Caught" be reserved for players who are unequivocally retired? Mark Yaima (talk) 04:43, 13 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
