The 2015-16 Canadiens needed average goaltending, not Carey Price

The issue of the Canadiens goaltending this past season has been discussed quite a bit, with varying opinions. Michel Therrien haters would say that he is nothing without surreal Carey Price goaltending, and his advocates would say that they missed the playoffs because of the poor goaltending.

Some even attacked Marc Bergevin's tenure for not reacting earlier, and then trying a hail mary to fix the situation with Ben Scrivens. Let's set the reference. I took all the goalies in the league, and looked at numbers for goalie who played 6 games (360min) in all situation and 320min for even strength.
