Thomas Greiss Puts Up Good Stat Line In Loss
6 years agoNew York Islanders goaltender Thomas Greiss made 32 saves on 35 shots for a .914 save percentage in the 4-3 loss to the Montreal Canadiens. The Islanders took a commanding 3-1 lead after the first period, however, the Islanders played passive and this, in turn, led to Greiss facing a lot of shots and ultimately blowing the lead. Even with the loss though, he still holds an exception 4-2-1 record with a mind blowing 1.98 GAA and .940 SV%. There was question as to whether Robin Lehner would split starts with Greiss, however, the Islanders are running the hot hand and it appears to work. Greiss has started the last five games for the Islanders, and it's no question Lehner will take the backseat for now. Greiss needs to be owned in all formats.
