It is one of the most surprising stats you will see in the NHL. The Edmonton Oilers boast one of the best scorers in the league, leading the league in points each of the last two seasons, reaching the century mark in both. However, zero of those points have come against Nashville Predators’ goalie Juuse Saros. Think about that for a moment. The leagues best scorer has not tallied a point against a “backup” goalie.
Granted, it is only two games. One-hundred and twenty minutes total. The Oilers peppered Saros with 77 shots in those two games, and he stopped every single one.
