He has been playing unbelievable so far this season (except for two or three games) and we can barely win so far this season. We only won one SO this year out of 5 I think. No one can score in a SO except for Stepan, Nash (sometimes), St Louis (sometimes) and Zuccs (sometimes). I feel terrible for him. The defense has been pretty weak lately and Lundqvist gets so many shots on net and he has to stop them all. Tonight, he had to make huge saves during the Pens power play and he had to stop 2 breakaways by Crosby and Letang. AV has to make this team play like they did during the playoffs last year. I know he can't fully control his players, but he can talk to them.

Lundqvist is by far one of the best goalies in the NHL right now and of all time. Even if you dislike Lundqvist, you know that he is one of the best goalies in the NHL right now along with Price, Quick, Bishop, Rask, Frederik Andersen, Fleury (this season)

Pekka Rinne is one of my favorite goalies in the NHL. I didn't add him to the list because I didn't know how good he was doing this year. I just looked at his stats and he's doing great so far.

Fun story about Pekka Rinne


Ten years ago he was the backup goalie for Kärpät but wasn't getting almost any playing time at all because Kärpät had another then-elite goalie as their starter: Niklas Bäckström. This was during their dynasty years (2004-2008).

One Nashville scout noticed that Rinne was also a great goalie and actually told the Nashville management that he would quit his job if they didn't draft/sign Rinne.

And that's how Rinne came to the NHL, either in the same year or the year after Bäckström did, I can't remember.

Kärpät ended up being stuck with Tuomas Tarkki who was good for a few seasons until his form utterly collapsed in the finals of 2009. Tarkki's brother Iiro is the current backup goalie for the team.

I actually never knew this.


I rather have Rinne on my team over Bäckström, but I do love Bäckström. Who would you rather have?

Ten years ago I'd have Bäckström.

Today I'd much rather have Rinne.
