What Others Are Saying
"Superman played in the rookie goalie's sweater during an
incredible run last season. The question now is who will return for
1997-98: the Man of Steel or the erstwhile backup for the International
League's Cleveland Lumberjacks?" (The
Hockey News 1997-98 Yearbook, p. 155)
"[Ken Wregget's injury] opened the door for Lalime, who set an NHL
record for longest unbeated streak from the start of a career (14-0-2).
The sixth round draft choice - a restricted free agent this summer -
could not keep up that pace and had a below-average second half." (The Hockey News 1997-98
Yearbook, p. 155)
"Made quite a rookie splash last year with a NHL-record, 16-game
unbeaten streak to start his career but he battled a bad case of the
flu, fell into a 0-5-0 slump and the Pens' woeful defensive play
finally got to him. Wregget recaptured his No. 1 status and Lalime
didn't see any playoff action." (The
Sports Forecaster Hockey '97-'98, p. 104)
"Idolizes Patrick Roy. Same first name. Same butterfly style. About the
same size. Nicknamed Roy-lime by his teammates. But he's not the next
St. Patrick!" (The
Sports Forecaster Hockey '97-'98, p. 104)
"Lalime notched 21 wins in 39 appearances during his rookie season with
the Penguins in 1996-97. But, following a contract dispute during the
summer of 1997, he hasn't played another game in the NHL. Finally, he
was traded by Pittsburgh to Anaheim in March 1998, but was stuck in the
IHL last season. He's another product from Quebec, but took time to
develop. He has made stops in the East Coast League and the IHL. Will
need time to become an NHLer again. He will back up Tugnutt and no
doubt be excited at making a return to the NHL and playing close to
home." (The Sports
Forecaster 1999-2000, p. 89)
"In early March, Lalime looked ready to lead the Senators into the
playoffs. But the dream was short-lived. The Sens acquired Tom Barrasso
and Lalime was relegated to a regular seat on the bench. After spending
two seasons in the minor leagues, he has matured both physically and
mentally. It showed last season. Unless plans change, Lalime will most
likely head into camp as the No. 1 man on the depth chart. Anything can
change after that." (The
Sports Forecaster 2000-01, p. 78)
"There are as many questions as there are answers when it comes to the
Senators' goaltending situation. After a very solid regular season in
2000-01, Lalime was outplayed in Ottawa's first-round disaster.
However, the 27-year-old was still one of this team's better performers
and didn't receive the slightest support from his teammates. Lalime
covers the net well and anticipates the play. His lateral movement is
excellent and he shows tremendous poise. He's learned what it takes to
stick in the NHL after some early success. Lalime has proven he can do
it for 82 games. Whether the Sens need a more proven goalie to win in
the playoffs is a question only he can answer." (The Sports Forecaster 2001-02,
p. 80)
"It's not how you start the season but rather how you finish. After
early struggles in 2001-02, Lalime rebounded with a bang and finally
put his critics to bed with a tremendous playoff performance. His
positioning between the pipes is excellent. It usually takes a very
accurate shot to beat him. He rarely gets rattled and has no trouble
shaking off a bad goal. Now that he's demonstrated he can perform with
the best in the playoffs, Lalime must prove to be more consistent over
the 82-game schedule. With a little luck, he may challenge for a few
postseason awards." (The
Sports Forecaster 2002-03, p. 78)
