What utterly poor reporting by them.
Gillies is off to a great start to his NHL career. He has 4 starts (1 last year):
3-1-0
1.50 GAA
.950 SV%
Win Vs. LA: .964 SV%
Win Vs. ARZ: .946 SV%
Win Vs. COL: .966 SV%
Loss Vs. DAL: .923 SV%
120 Shots against
6 Goals against

We can definitely test Gillies more, but Rittich has also fallen apart after goals against while Gillies seems to bounce back a fair bit better. As Gillies continues to perform, he should get tougher opponents. My point is just that the whole "goalies aren't getting it done" REALLY is "Rittich isn't getting it done" because Gillies has performed well every start this year.
