It’s hard to quantify the amount of pressure on Carter Hart’s shoulders ahead of the NHL playoffs. At just 21-years-old, he’s the youngest goalie to have played in more than 20 games this year. Philadelphia’s favorite wonderkid amassed a .914 save percentage in his first full season, ranking 10th overall in wins, while his sensational 20-3-2 record at home helped drive the Flyers into the postseason with a real sense of assertion. But for someone so young to finally make the Stanley Cup playoffs – an occasion in which he’s been preparing for all his life, knowing that a fair chunk of the team’s success rests on his shoulders, it’s understandably a little daunting.
