I think this year, more than any other year, the team with that goalie that starts off hot at the beginning of the season, will be the team that wins the cup. It could be some no name back up who plays out of their minds for 20 games, that wins the cup.
So, more or less the same result we have come to expect from the last several Stanley Cup playoffs? With such luminaries in the past decade as Corey Crawford, Matt Murray and Jordan Binnington emerging from obscurity to become star goalies?
