2017 Stanley Cup Final NSH vs PIT

You know JBot is already working on a deal for him.

 

Was reading how he is the antithesis of Risto, fails the eye test miserably, but looks good on those fancy stat charts.

 

He most certainly does not. He did look good, but then Niskanen left in free agency and Maatta got exposed. Seriously. It's been two years since his advanced metrics were good.

 

And speaking of fancy states...welcome back to Earth, Pekka "regression to the mean" Rinne!

Gotta start Saros for game 3

 

Pekka is too "hot" and "cold" and IMHO has been since Mitch Korn left as his goalie coach. One game he stops everything with spectacular save and spectacular save. The next he doesn't cover his short side post (goal #1 last night) and has no rebound control (last two games). If he is going to keep spraying rebounds into the crease, the Preds have no chance. Frustrating. Maybe he just can't handle the pressure well?

 

BTW - the Preds have no power play without Ryan Johansen... he is the guy that makes it work.

Pekka had that covered.  He was against the post.  For a SLIT second there was a SMALL gap between his arm and midsection.
