The Toronto Maple Leafs have had struggles with their goaltending in the past and it’s always been an important part of a playoff push, but this year, no so much?
When you look to the Tampa Bay Lightning, both the Toronto Maple Leafs and New York Rangers bettered their save percentage across a series.
Likewise, the Colorado Avalanche lack what you’d traditionally view as Stanley Cup Final worthy goaltending, in that they’ve had to split the load between a clear number one/number two duo.
In fact, if anyone told you it would be Pavel Francouz proving himself the equal of Darcy Kuemper, you might very well have responded with surprise.
