Robin Lehner has been a boon for the New York Islanders this season. The favor has been reciprocated.
Speaking to Brian Compton of NHL.com, Lehner said that the Islanders “have been a great fit. We’ve got a support system here from the ground up. It’s easier to go to work. This team has made it possible for me.”
Lehner, 27, was a second-round pick of the Ottawa Senators in 2009. He has posted a league-leading 2.16 goals-against average and .928 save percentage in 24 games this season. Since 2012, his rookie season, he has posted a record of 84-98-38.
