Tim Thomas Still Riding the Hot Hand

Last night, and even the game on Tuesday, Tim Thomas continued to show signs of his Vezina self. Playing Ovechkin and the Caps both nights, Thomas only allowed a goal in each game. Along with that, he made some incredible saves, showing that he can still stand on his head.

Thomas has started in 4 games in a row, allowing no more than a goal in each game. Add to that a .978 SV% and a .75 GAA, we can officially say that Timmy is no more of himself of lst year. No one knows yet who will start in net against the Rangers on Saturday, as everyone is staying mum.


As much as I love Timmy, I would like to see Tuukka in net, as its been a little too long since the last time he played. Plus, I don't want his record sitting there at 0-1. It would be nice to see him get a win.


Now whoever gets the start, I hope they can keep up the blockage in net. This is litterally the best start to a season the Bruins have had in years. In my point of view, this may actually be the year the B's make it all the way. But we will have to wait and see how well that goes.
