NHL Goalie Tandems Ranked: Which Unexpected Duos Could Make or Break Their Teams This Season?
Servicable is the best word to describe Vejmelka and Vítek Vaněček this season. They haven’t stood on their heads to singlehandedly win games, but they’re also rarely a problem for Utah.
24. Buffalo Sabres
| Goalie | Record | Save % | GSAX |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3-6-3 | .899 | 4.08 | |
| 3-3-1 | .891 | -0.46 | |
| 4-2-0 | .898 | -1.14 |
Early in the season, it looked like veteran journeyman Alex Lyon could take command of the Buffalo net, but he cooled off considerably in November.
Lyon looked great early, playing his aggressive style with his heels at the top of his crease to great effect. He was excellent in six of his first seven starts, helping Buffalo earn wins. Since Oct. 28, he has come back down, with an .865 save percentage in six appearances.
