Roloson Playoff MVP?


Dwayne Roloson has greeted the 2010-2011 playoffs like an old friend. The old friend being the 2005-2006 NHL playoffs. In 05-06, Roloson lead the Edmonton Oilers to the Stanley Cup. He boasted a .927 save percentage and 2.33 goals against average. Although he was injured in game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals, his play during the 05-06 playoffs has not been forgotten by anyone, including Dwayne. He is driven to bring the Lightning to the Stanley Cup, and his game shows it. So far he has a .941 save percentage and a 2.01 goals against average. To clue you in on how impressive these stats are, Tim Thomas, who set the record for regular season save percentage, had a .938. If Roloson is able to continue the streak he is on, look for some awards to go his way.
