Tuuks is top 5 in GAA. Top half in sv% but if he keeps this up hell be top 10 in no time.
Same SV% as the godly Holtby

No doubt. His stats have been skyrocketing since his hot streak began. I have never understood the crowd who freaks out over small sample sizes for goalies. Take out a few of Tuukka's worst games this season and his stats are elite. With an improved defense in front of him this season he may very well be in the Vezina discussion by the end of the season. Not saying he will win the Vezina, but he will be in the discussion.Tuuks is top 5 in GAA. Top half in sv% but if he keeps this up hell be top 10 in no time.

I'm not part of the crowd cherry picking stretches here and there to proclaim the sky is falling on an "overpaid" goalie who has a CAREER of elite hockey goaltending. So, no. Tuukka's stats speak for themselves. When he plays great he is simply doing what he has done most of his career. I am not freaking out over a small sample size at all. I am pointing out this is what Tuukka actually is -- a great goalie.And you're not doing that in this post?
Agree. I'm surprised at how many Rask haters there are. I think we're lucky to have one of the leagues truly elite goalies. Amazing that some seem to want him to fail.8-0-1 in his last 9 starts.

He's always been a top-10 goalie in the league, but now he is actually playing like it.
Good way of putting it.
Why have posters been critical of Rask? Over the previous 3 seasons 16 different goalies have gotten votes for the Vezina Trophy. Tuukka was not one of them. He did not play at an elite level. Nor did he this year until recently. But in the last month he's been one of the best in the game.
