PITTSBURGH — The Islanders might not have a goaltending problem, because there are a lot of reasons why the team is allowing 3.37 goals per game, fifth most in the league.
But the Islanders do have a goaltender problem. Thomas Greiss is in a funk after giving up six goals to the Lightning on Tuesday, his first start since being pulled for giving up five goals in barely more than half a game on Friday.
Greiss has won eight of his 13 starts but his even-strength save percentage is .903, 30th out of 33 goaltenders with at least 500 minutes played, according to the Corsica Hockey website.
