Goalies’World rankings

3-week lead for Tomas Vokoun

For a 3rd straight Monday, Tomas Vokoun, of the Florida Panthers is leading the Goalies’World Magazine computer rankings with a 19-19-9, .931, 2.34 record. Vokoun leads the NHL in shutouts (7) along with Martin Brodeur and he’s also Mr. Rubber with an average of 33.9 shots per game. He’s co-leader in save percentage with Ryan Miller. The Czech goaltender also holds an impressive 34-9-3, Hot-Ok-Bad  profile with 5 stolen wins which means that he’s hot 73% of the time, average, 20% and bad, 7%. That’s consistency at its best and that’s nothing new for Vokoun a relatively unknown goaltender who ranked 4th, 17th, 2nd and 3rd at Goalies’World over the four previous seasons. Vokoun did not get a single win in three outings this week but he was nevertheless solid in goal for the Panthers with a 0-3, .919, 2.73 record.

 

Goalies’World goalie of the week
JS Giguere, a perfect Leafs

You never have a second chance to make a good first impression and Jean-Sebastien Giguere certainly made quite an impression after being traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs last week. Jiggy recorded two shutouts in his first two games with the Leafs, stopping 30 shots each time in two home wins against the New Jersey Devils (3-0) on Tuesday and against the Ottawa Senators on Saturday.

 

Stealers of the week

Jaroslav Halak steals the show

Jaroslav Halak stole two wins for the Montreal Canadiens, this week, both 45 saves two goals performances against Vancouver (3-2 home win) on Tuesday and against Boston (3-2, road shootout win). That’s a total of 94 shots and 4 goals in those two stolen wins. Outstanding.
