How did the LetsGoBuffalo's Eric Comrie pull off an epic 46-save win against the LetsGoOilers last night? NHL analyst MikeMcKenna56 highlights what Comrie does well and why his performance might not be a one-time thing:
If Buffalo Sabres goaltender Eric Comrie didn’t have your attention before posting a 46-save, 4-2 victory over the Edmonton Oilers on Tuesday night, he should now.
But I also thought Comrie was a little out of control. And that he played flat to the goal line too often. He had a tendency to get beat by bad angle shots because he didn’t always get square to the shooter. When goaltenders stay down on their knees, it adds steps to the save-making process when a puck moves laterally. Which happens often when the play is tight and near the crease. The goalie has to rotate, lift the back knee, push, then make a save.
On all three shots featured in the clip, Comrie arrived early with his feet and was square to the shooter. The saves looked easy because his precise skating routes put him ahead of the play. That’s not Comrie. He has a vertical patience to his game that I find really impressive. He makes the breakaway save look easy. Comrie stayed on his edges as long as possible and read the high shot early. He was able to fill space without doing anything drastic.
