Pretty much bang on. On that second goal, there's not a single piece of his equipment outside of the blue paint. Considering the distance from him to the shooter on that shot, that's just brutal.
Like EE said, terrific backup/borderline starter. Can get in there and put up quality starts... maybe even for extended stretches but that's about it.
