How so? I belive he stopped 37 shots. Would a “massive” impact have resulted in another 15 shots? Let’s say shot #38 goes in. They would have had to generate a lot more shots to make up a few more goals.
Perhaps a “few” more shots, but I think “massive” is a “massive” overstatement.
I don’t really see what you are driving at.
take game 7 against Tampa. Boston has an abysmal power play and penalty kill. Tampa was outstanding in both categories.
no penalties were called, despite some very blatant penalties.
Against the Canucks the same thing happened. Pretty obvious the NHL decided it was Boston’s turn.
