I think Berra is just having a hot-streak, coupled with good team-work by the Avs.
He definitely had great athleticism for his size and was my favorite when we have both him and Ramo.
At best (or at worst?), the most valid comparison for this situation is Jean-Sébastien Giguère. The Flames also traded him away for a 2nd and Giguere ended with a long career as a Conn Smyth and Stanley Cup Winning goalie. I don't think Berra has that kind of longevity and is just having a run of the flashes of brilliance we saw from time to time.
