Fowler Stands Tall in Montreal Crease Duel With Luukkonen
Both goalies faced a steady stream at the Bell Centre, but only one finished ahead of what his chances should have cost him.
By MA Insights
Jacob Fowler won the goalie duel the box score hides. Both he and Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen looked similar on save percentage, but Fowler stopped more than the chances against him called for, while Luukkonen let in more than his did. In a one-goal game, that gap decided it.
Goals saved above expected simply measures how many goals a goalie kept out compared with what an average goalie would allow on the same shots. Over his four games, Fowler sits at +2.22, with two wins and a shutout.
