Call me crazy but I don't see their goalies maintaining a PK SV% of .940 all year, nor do I think we'll see their PP continue at nearly 35%. Their start reminds me of the 09-10 Flames' start where they shot at 16% and had a 40% PP over the first 10-15 games.
Not that high, but they do have two of the best goalies from last season in terms of save %. They are in a really great position in between the pipes.

And the Leafs can play much better than they have.
