Yes, and the Bruins' stretch of exceedingly strong PDO is because they had Thomas and Rask pushing up the sv% side of things.
And crappy teams have low PDOs year after year because they have crappy goalies that struggle to post a .900 sv%, and few high-end goal scorers with strong shooting %.
Which is to say its not just a measure of "luck".
variations away from 100 are not purely a matter of chance, and teams routinely sustain PDOs at the top and bottom of the league for entire seasons, or even several seasons.
