from Steve Simmons of the Toronto Sun,

What Kyle Dubas needed most on his 34th birthday was a backup goaltender who can win a game.

Any game.

This was Michael Hutchinson’s sixth start of this still young season. This should be his last. Or his last for a while. He is 0-for-6 in the win column. 0-for-October. 0-for-November. Oh no, for his part of this irregular season.

He has started six times and his number is 644-556. That’s not his social security number. Each digit represents the number of goals he has given up in each starts. There are no threes in there. There are no twos. There are no zeros.

This can’t continue.
