"Puck don't lie"
Not an excuse for Lack, as right now he's terrible, just an interesting observation that Joe posted the other day. The team plays much worse in front of Lack for some reason.
Lack has started 7 games and in 4 of them, the team was held to UNDER 2 goals (contrast that to 7 out of 18 for Ward's starts - and one of those 7 was Buffalo where Lack played the 2nd half).
The team averages 2 shots / game less in Lack's starts
The team averages 1.57 Goals/game under Lack and 2.22 under Ward.
Sample size for Lack is still small, but the team seems to lay eggs with Lack in net. I was at the FLA game and it was one of the poorer outings I had seen, kinda like last night.
I cannot remember ever seeing a poorer outing than what I saw last night when you factor in lack of effort, skill, luck, and overall stupidity.
