Each night during the Stanley Cup Playoffs, former NHL goaltender Jamie McLennan provides his Post 2 Post rankings for every goaltender in action. Each goaltender will receive a score out of five based on their performance. On Sunday, an impressive Henrik Lundqvist helped the New York Rangers force a Game 7, while his Washington Capitals counterpart, Braden Holtby, had a game to forget.
Rangers 4, Capitals 3
Henrik Lundqvist - 4 - Lundqvist was brilliant on Sunday night with too many big saves to list, but he's certainly the reason they are playing a Game 7. He faced 35 shots after two periods - the Caps got to him in the third - but he still found a way to make big saves on Alexander Ovechkin, Joel Ward and Evgeny Kuznetzov in the period.
Braden Holtby - 2 - Holtby had some rebound issues early, but made a few big saves to keep it only 1 - 0. Although the Chris Kreider goals were not good, you can't lay blame on him for a lot of missed assignments in front of him.
