Tweet CALGARY -- The man known as "JR" has managed to ruffle a few feathers with his old club. Authentic Ronnie Brown Jersey. Former Chicago Blackhawks great Jeremy Roenick, who now plies his trade as a hockey analyst with NBC-TV, told a Windy City radio station on Wednesday that Chicagos goaltending is not good enough to bring home the clubs first Stanley Cup since 1961. "They can get by with (No. 1 keeper Cristobal) Huet, theres no question about it," Roenick said. "They can even get by with (backup Antti) Niemi, theyre so good. It just comes to if your goaltender has a bad game, though, and especially in a big-time situation, thats not going to bode very well for a Stanley Cup championship. "They are good goaltenders, dont get me wrong," Roenick said. "It just remains to be seen whether they can really knuckle down and take it to the next level." One mans opinion, said Huet Thursday morning. "Hes allowed to say whatever he wants. I respect that. But we think we can do it," Huet said prior to the Hawks evening game in Calgary. "Its not always easy to play for this team. Not a lot of shots, and still some good scoring chances. "Hes allowed to say whatever he wants. I respect that. But we think we can do it.

He can say whatever he wants, but at the end of the night ... were winning right now." -- Cristobal H |
