Well that is not how you initially stated the question. Obviously we have not advanced past the first round of the playoffs since the lockout so big games that he has won probably won't meet your credentials since you are clearly trying to say he has not won anything big since the lockout. He did have a vezina season with 10 shutouts in 06 you probably have several big games there?
With 4 straight seasons averaging over 40 wins (39 in 07/08) he has been a top goalie in the game. He is a workhorse who plays as many games as you let him. He has a HART nominee, a Vezina to his name and took a team all the way to game 7 of the SCF. Not once did he cost us a game in that series. Only in the Keenan years did he play poorly in the playoffs (and not even that poorly). He and Luongo had very similar numbers vs Chicago last year. The guy is still a top 3 (I think #1) goalie in the league. He has acomplished quite a bit considering his career basically didn't get rolling until 2003/2004.
