St. Louis Blues goaltender Jake Allen has been arguably the best goaltender thus far in the playoffs. Only Pekka Rinne has a better save percentage, .979 to Allen’s .974, but Allen has faced over 20 more shots than Rinne. Many of those saves have not been spectacular (although his glove wave might make a couple of them seem like it), but that doesn’t really matter when he is keeping the Minnesota Wild to one goal per game despite facing an average 39 shots per game. He is avoiding mistakes and his teammates are working hard to minimize second and third chances too.
