It’s pretty exciting to see Nashville back in the playoffs this season. I’m here to preview the goaltending for this Round 1 matchup.
Nashville Predators Goaltending
We know (and so does the entire League) that Juuse Saros is an elite netminder. This season, however, he’s looked simply ordinary. There’ve been flashes of the usual Saros, including some incredible work during Nashville’s 18-game point streak. I think any disappointment is because most of us expect Saros to be extraordinary all the time.
“Little Bear” (did you forget that nickname?) was less-than-stellar in his two starts against Vancouver this season.
