The edge in goaltending is not just Lehner though...I think anyone looking at the Isles goaltending has to look at Greiss too since they split starts pretty evenly...they both had over .930 save % and both were excellent this year...the combo of Murray and CDS wasn’t as good...
And let’s be honest about Murray...his year HAS been inconsistent and even though he’s been great since the TDL, there were some moments of letting in soft goals at the end of games during the pressure times that was troubling...I’m not supporting Biron’s criticism, I’m just saying Murray was outplayed last PO by Holtby, that is true...and it is true that he lets in the odd soft goal...and it could be that Lehner/Greiss will fall back to their norms this PO and Murray will outplay them...no one knows, but in a vacuum, looking just at the RS this year, you would have to give goaltending edge to the Isles and saying that is not wrong...
