  • All 8 goaltending storylines to watch in the first round, including 'Bob' vs. 'Big Cat'

    6 days ago | nytimes.com | Jesse Granger

    The 2024-25 regular season gave us so many intriguing storylines in the crease. Connor Hellebuyck had a season for the ages for the Winnipeg Jets, which should result in his third Vezina Trophy and earn him consideration for the Hart Trophy. Andrei Vasilevskiy returned to elite form in Tampa Bay, while Logan Thompson joined the Vezina conversation after a brilliant start to his season in Washington.

  • NHL goalies are better than ever. What are the best scorers doing to regain an edge?

    3 weeks ago | nytimes.com | Jesse Granger

    When it comes to stopping a scorer in a one-on-one situation, NHL goalies are better than they've ever been. The league-wide save percentage has dipped in recent years - steadily declining from .910 in 2019-20 to .900 this season - as offensive strategies improve and shooters find ways to beat goalies with screens, deflections and backdoor plays. Beating a goaltender with a clean shot has become incredibly difficult. Listen to the dressing room conversations after a team is shut out.

That was a heck of a tie up by Brayden McNabb to prevent Brandon Montour from putting that puck into the net on that scramble near the end of the game.
