After Game 1 I posted that I wasn't happy with Stu and that 4 goals against is way too high in a blowout. I was told to calm down, one game and those goals weren't his fault.
Ok, here are 14 games. He is the Austin Matthews of goalies right now.. great in regular season and 'meh' in playoffs. So far.
I thought we'd lose last night. I think it's going to 6 or 7.
Feels like the October Oilers so far... we have to score 5 every night to win a game. 7 got us a win, 4 did not.
Before TDL - I bitched and moaned for a backup and Ceci upgrade. Year 5 of Holland and I don't see a legit backup (Pickard and Fantilli) or a 4 legit Top 4D. I've said all along this will be our achilles heel eventually.
Having said that.. great game LA and I thought it'd be a close series. LA has a great team. I'm also not sure why the goalies get so much criticism:
Rittich .921
Talbot .913
Pickard .909
Skinner .905
We never had a goalie edge.
