You’re telling me linus ullmark has a better sv% than jeremy swayman? But i am reliably informed it is ullmark’s fault the bruins didnt sweep!

Ok i am leaving that snark there even though i immediately went o check sswayman’s hockey reference lage and he is over .950 so far. This is a weird OP.

I'm sorry and this may come as a surprise, but this thread is not about the Bruins.

Obviously, the top number in the image was cut off. However, the three Canucks goalies are still top nine.

You gotta be a little more perceptive there, and follow Occam's Razor.

O geez.

Or maybe go to bed before 1am, esoecially when i was out getting sunburnt all day on the golf course.

They’re playing a team that has almost no top end scoring talent.

 

[Senor Catface]

Neat.

 

[lawrence]

apparently the only other time this happened was in 2004. also the Canucks. Canucks won 1 game against the Flames with Cloutier, one with Hedberg and one with Auld. Damn we cursed .

 

[PanniniClaus]

I would have to believe that no team has ever started 3 different goalies in the first 4 games of a series.

Penguins came close against the Rangers a couple years ago. Jarry started game 7.

Forsberg???

 

[Chairman Maouth]

So, where we we?

We've kept them to low scores. But they're goaltending has been good and they literally dive in front of shots to block them. It's been really tough to get shots through.

 

[Pucklington]

Remarkable performances considering circumstances.

Josi has entered the chat.

I mean, the Preds are awful. Their 1C was a 3C on Toronto and they have one legitimate elite forward.

 

[Hoglander]

I mean, the Preds are awful. Their 1C was a 3C on Toronto and they have one legitimate elite forward.

And yet they scored the 9th most goals in the league this year. A lot of credit should be going to the Canucks' PK, which has been really good.

 

[ijuka]

16 teams in the playoffs and #9 is .900? That's brutal.

 

[syz]

Yea playing the Preds will do that.

 

[Go Wings]

That will change when you play the Oilers next round.

 

[Hockeyholic]

I think this same more about Nashville's offense/system.

This.

Being an NHL goalie, let alone winning a playoff game, is nor easy. So give them credit.

But Nashville is built to defend and play goalie. Never an attacking team with great forwards.

 

[Ruok]

Small sample size is small. Skinner in one night jumps to the top of the canadian goalie sv% list.

 

[AslanRH]

if you have 3, perhaps you don't really have 1

 

[Chairman Maouth]

Confucius?

And the Oilers allowed the 8th fewest GA, what does that have to do with anything? Gotta stay consistent.

Zing!

 

[Drops of Jupiter]

They are winning their series 3-1, small sample size + pretty low scoring games

Not sure there is a discussion to be had here but I'm posting and contributing anyway
