Before the Eastern Conference Final series against the New York Rangers, Lightning players and coaches were asked repeatedly how they planned to score against Henrik Lundqvist, one of the best goaltenders in the world who always seems to be at the top of his game in the postseason.
Three games into the ECF, that talk has turned to, “Can Lundqvist stop anything the Bolts send his way?”
Lundqvist gave up 20 goals through the first two rounds (12 games) of the 2015 NHL Stanley Cup Playoffs.
He’s allowed more than half that total (12) to the Lightning in two games alone.
