Hoping he can show some improvement in the second half. There are signs of a good goalie in the highlights I've seen.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to the raw stats. The defense in front of the net minders is not the greatest. I think with a decent defense in front of them you could easily add .015 to their SV%
Also, with 17 games for Zags and 14 for Gillies, it is an awfully small sample size for each of them still, we saw with Gillies a few games back that 1 terrible outing can really have a nasty impact on your stats. That one terrible start by Gillies has knocked his GAA up by 0.18 and his SV% down by .006. While that doesn't sound like much, .006 is the difference between being 12th and 24th in the AHL in SV%.
