Analyst reveals Joseph Woll as the top goalie in the league through the first 2 weeks
Early on this season, the Leafs have experienced their fair share of ups and downs. Thankfully, there have been more ups, with the team amassing a 4-2-0 record through 6 games. A huge reason for their success has been the rapid rise of Joseph Woll, whose emergence as the team's potential #1 goalie of the future is turning heads all around the National Hockey League.
Woll's 2-1-0 record may not be eye-catching, but his 1.44 GAA and .957 save percentage certainly are. Despite only having a combined 14 games of regular season NHL experience under his belt, Woll's 1.44 GAA sits 6th among all goalies in the league, while his .957 SV% sits 5th overall. On Wednesday, NHL Network and Sports Logiq analyst Mike Kelly called Woll the best goalie in the NHL through 2 weeks.
That's quite the statement from Kelly, but is it really that farfetched, given what we've seen from Woll so far this season? Of goalies who have played 3 or more games, Woll sits 2nd in the league in goals against (4), behind only last year's Vezina Trophy winner Linus Ullmark (3) - and he's done so while facing a ton of quality scoring chances.
