Tim Thomas News

That would appear to indicate that Tim Thomas will get the start in goal and Kampfer and Pouliot will be the scratches.

Over 29 career appearances against the Sens, Thomas holds a 19-8-2 record with a 1.91 GAA, .938 SV% and six shutouts.

Thomas trained with the Accelerated Recovery and Performance system this summer, a machine which he used all throughout last season, but when asked about the upcoming year, Thomas emphasized that he is focusing on training camp right now rather than what lies behind or ahead of him.

Thomas enters this season healthy, opposed to last year where he was still recovering from offseason hip surgery. Although he was dominant last season, we still highly recommend drafting Tuukka Rask in a later round as a handcuff.

“When we’re in the garage or driveway playing as a kid and you’re fantasizing, well, I was Stevie Yzerman, which doesn’t make sense for a goalie, but you’re saying to yourself, Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals, you’re not saying Game 6, you know?” said goaltender Tim Thomas yesterday. “So this is really, you know, what every kid dreams about.”
