Vezina finalists having a very weird first round. Bob went 4-1 in the first round, but has a sub .900 save percentage. Hellebuyck forgot how to play goalie and Demko got injured yet again.

CanuckMan Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 One thing is for sure, Canucks never had a lack of quality goal tending for a while now. Luongo, Schneider, Lack, Miller, Markstrom, Demko, Silovs? Maybe missing a few guys in there but overall always had a guy that gave you a chance to win every night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avs scored 28, Hellebuyck couldn't see nearly a third of them. He gave up the most goals of any tender in the first round but he also faced the most shots against and it wasn't close, Hellebuyck faced 177 shots, the next highest tender was Vasilevskiy and he faced 156. Saros has faced 91 shots for comparison. Hellebuyck bailed out Winnipeg all year, but Winnipeg could get away with him saving their bacon when they were playing a different team every night, the Avs clearly keyed in on the Jets weaknesses. Jets got run over by the Avs offensive game, they gave up a lot of high danger chances, I don't think it's as simple as pinning it on Hellebuyck.
