I didn't think Ramo played great in his first game. A little shakey, questionable confidence, mixed with a really dangerous offensive team, it all came out bad. He really looked like a KHL goalie, not an NHL goalie. After last night however, I thought he did a 180. He looked confident with the puck, his positioning was solid, overall, much better.
It's not that the GA was different, but it was his play when the puck wasn't in the net that stood out for me as being completely different. He got lit up by power plays and deflections, something any goalie would be a victim to.
I think you'd be hard pressed to find someone who wanted to go after Bryz. Ramo looked good if you look past the stats a little bit. I even like Bryz, and I still say there's absolutely no point.
