You could rephrase your comment to: "Calgary really needs a goalie to stand up in order to fill the massive void on 2/3rds of the top line which seems to appear whenever the going gets tough."

I know everyone thinks this. But remove the first game lucky shutout, and he had a 4.25 GAA through the rest of the series
Even with the entire series he had a measly 3.26 GAA
He wasn't even a top 10 goalie who played in playoffs last year stats wise.
Im sick of people claiming he was unbelievably good because he truly was average.
