I'm not saying he's great but his stats don't tell the whole story. The best goalies in the league would look average if they were faced with the barrage of quality rubber that Dubnyk faces on a nightly basis. Watching the oilers play 5 on 4 because one of their "stars" floats outside the defensive blueline waiting for the breakaway pass is pathetic. Reminds me of watching Pavel Bure, score 60 goals while giving away 80 goals against.
