Agreed. Lehner reminded me a little of Timmy T. And I do mean just a little. There were a couple of times when Lehner seemingly overplayed the puck and got out of position, but it never cost him. You can tell he has confidence, and his focus was pretty superb considering the circumstances.
Another guy Lehner reminds me of is Karlsson. Again, with the confidence. Lehner seemed pretty fearless to just play his game, and not worry about the Big Bad Bs. He looked really big in the net (probably a side-effect of being really big), but you could tell he has already convinced himself that he can compete in the NHL.
And then asked afterwards if he outduelled Timmy T, he said that the Sens outduelled the Bs.
And all of this comes after he let in that first weak goal early on against the Islanders. The fact that he recovered so quickly and completely from that just shows what a battler he is, and that he truly does belong in this league. You could also tell that the rest of the team were not concerned about his ability to keep them competitive.
Just fantastic. Who would've thought that would go down and the team wouldn't skip a beat (and maybe play even better?).

What I liked was that he kept it simple, didn't try anything crazy and didn't cost the team any goals. He'll get more comfortable as he plays with the team. So far, so good. Let's hope that continues.NEELY wrote:Sens undefeated with Gilory.
I honestly liked some of the things I saw from him last night, great skater, pretty solid shot... runs around a lot though. He will need to play a more responsible game for the Sens going forward and I think a week or two of practices will help with that.
Lehner is amazing.

That was one of the best defensive efforts I seen from the team all year. So many blocked/deflected shots, they went all out to help Lehner.

The team had it too good with Anderson and got away from helping the goalies because they didn't need to most nights. If Auld gets the same help as Lehner did last night, he looks a lot better.
This is good news all around because the team was going nowhere in the playoffs with their usual habits.
