No Way Jose for David Krecji

Despite firing 42 shots on goal, the Bruins were only able to get one to slide past Jose Theodore. The B's lost 4-1 to the surging Washington Capitals who extended their win streak to a club-record eleven.

"I wouldn’t give him credit for as much as he did. We had forty-two shots. I don’t think he was that good to stop us. We got him to make mistakes, and we just couldn’t bury those chances," said Bruins center David Krecji in the locker room following the game. "Those chances, usually we score those, but today we just couldn’t find the back of the net. Personally, I don’t think he was that unbelievable. I think it didn’t matter because we didn’t hit the back of the net."

Shouldn't the goalie get some credit for that?
