Time For a Nap

Sure Blackhawk goalie Jocelyn Thibault has been playing his ass off. But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t need rest. Everyone needs rest. And yet coach Brian Sutter won’t rest Thibault. Even though Thibault couldn’t hold off the anemic Predators this weekend and even though Thibault couldn’t contain Detroit in the third period of Chicago’s loss last night.
Thibault hasn’t been great in the third anyway, but going on 16 starts? It would be hard for most goalies to play well under those circumstances.
The man needs a rest. Chicago is going to the post-season. They don’t need to take an exhausted goalie with them.
