Yeah, not so much, at least in terms of real world stats of goalies playing back-to-backs. Why NHL coaches need to revisit the idea that goalies shouldn’t start on back-to-back nights
Well, then you have to talk to the coaches.
Also, most teams have a 1A + 1B situation going on and don't want to play a guy those back-to-back games.
Grubauer playing so much had clearly to do with Driedger missing all that time and like I've said, it wouldn't be smart to play Driedger in such a situation with him already having two stints on IR this season and just being back and having played one game since his last injury.
From now on I'd expect a split in starts, given how Grubauer has played and that Hakstol needs to find something in net because I doubt he wants to lose all the time.
Of course, if Grubauer's out then Driedger and D'Accord get their chance.
