CONNOR HELLEBUYCK, AN AMERICAN HERO 🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅🇺🇸🦅
I find it kind of weird that NOBODY is talking about Matt Boldy? His goal was Insane and without that goal Jack Hughes dosn't get the opportunity to net
"The Golden Goal"
League average save percentage was above .910 from 09-10 to 19-20, peaking at .915 in the middle of the decade. It's declined every year since to .896 in the current season. Hard to use raw save percentage with those changes.
Jim Craig, best EVER!
Hellebuyck played such an unreal game.
In the 2014 Olympics, Price played 303 minutes and allowed 3 goals. 0.59 GAA. Odds are there will never be a better goalie in the Olympics than 2014 Carey Price.
Carey Price had 3-4 year stretch of elite play but thats it and in between he had some bad years as well. That one comment to say Price should've had like 7 Vezinas and 2-3 Harts is not factual.
Its fascinating that Hellebuyck does have 3 Vezinas and 2 Jennings plus the same amount of Harts.
Also the fact they both only had one Olympic appearance and won a gold medal respective is impressive for both men.
I do think Hellebuyck as surpassed Price.
Hellebuck sucks. And his facial hair is atrocious v
