March 26th - Cam Tait's Two Minute Warning

0:00Risks. We all take them. And tonight, the Edmonton Oilers are rolling the dice. Vegas, baby. Coach Chris Noblock. He's making a move. A bold one. Let's talk, Tristan Jari. Tuesday night, Utah, 18 shots, 16 saves, two goals against save percentage, 0.889. Result? A win. But Oilers fans, oh, they're giving Jari the gears. And sure, some of it's fair. He needs to be better. But let's not call in a national task force to dissect this. Confidence. That's what a goalie needs. Confidence is a goalie's best friend. You don't find it in practice. You find it in games. Games you win. Now, earlier today on the Jason Greggers show, weekday afternoons, sports 1440, by the way, the topic of blocked shots came up. Two dozen, 24. That's a team buying in. That's a team building

1:02habits. Good ones. But tonight, the Oilers are starting Conor Ingram. And listen, I've got nothing bad to say about Ingram. Solid guy, solid goalie. But let me ask you this. You're at the Blackjack table. You're on a heater. You leave for a bit. When you come back, do you sit in the same seat? Superstition? Maybe. Momentum? Definitely. Noblox rolling the dice tonight. And we'll see if the gamble pays off. Because in hockey, just like in Vegas, sometimes you've got to bet big to win big. Oilers, golden nights, game on. Two minute warning. Haley Gregger Kruger. Kruger said he would never, ever let me drive his vehicle. Something about not taking a risk. Me? I'm Cam Tate. Sports. 1440.
