It's not that I'm trying to down play Giguere's play, but prior to these playoffs no one knew who he was. He's not a Rookie this year and sure Patrick Roy was awesome when he first entered the league but Giguere has been around. I can recite many examples of a team having a one shot wonder in the Playoffs, take for example "The Moose". Thing is Giguere is riding a hot streak, and sure he might be able to pull the entire thing off but it's unlikely. The rest of the Ducks aren't putting up stats that could allow the Wings to win if Giguere begins to fail. I'm all for the underdog and Giguere is just that, an underdog. He realistically should have been shut out a little prior to all of this.
.
And Giguere's Offificial stats 1.22 GAA,96.0% SVP
Other Goalies still in it...
Lalime 1.66 GAA, 93.1% SVP (Most likely out of it though)
Brodeur 1.47 GAA 94.4% SVP
Those stats are way to close to be considered 'hands down' Giguere's game. We'll see though in the finals.
