IN THE CREASE: A GOALIE REPORT
Wild v Blackhawks (sorry i couldn't come up with anything catchy but i'll work on it)
Wild Woe's: Ilya Bryzgalov will likely start in goal tonight as Kuemper was injured late in the 3rd period during the game against the avs. Bryzie stoped 1 goal in OT that night before the wild won the game but his regular season numbers are really bad. GAA 4.25 - remember that means he allows over 4 goals per game & SV& of .826 which means he only stops 82% of the shots on goal. Remember that Kuemper was a late pick-up after the other 2 wild goalies were injured.
Blackhawk get a Break: Corey Crawford, will be in goal for the hawks and he has 1.98 GAA and a save percentage of .935. that's amazing!
Rangers v. Penguins
Rangers: King Henrik is back - after a scary performance & being pulled in game 6, he was back to true form when the rangers beat the flyers in game 7. definately the best looking goalie in the NHL, and he can play! # for the playoffs: GAA 2.11 SV% .919
Penguins: Marc-Andre fleury - has been on/off all season, but he can step it up when it counts - and it counts now! # for the playoffs: GAA 2.81 SV% .908
just for good measure - these 2 might melt the ice tonight!
