Question 13: Can Thomas Greiss Rebound from His Terrible 2017-18?

Just like Alexander in 1972, in 2018-19 Thomas Greiss had a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad season.

Of the 51 goalies to appear in 25 or more NHL games, he ranked 50th in overall save percentage at .892. He was one of just four goalies to not even manage the modest .900 threshold.

While goals against average (essentially: goals allowed per minute of ice time, regardless of pressure) is not a good metric to measure goalie performance, it sure is a good measure of goalie misery: Greiss ranked dead last among those 51 goalies with a 3.
