I agree that a Carey Price like goalie would be a massive improvement, but they're extremely hard to come by. And Holland's philosophy has generally been using a value goaltender who's "good enough" so he can spend money elsewhere. The difference these days is there's no Lidstrom on the blueline and that money isn't really getting spent elsewhere.

Which isn't to say a Vezina/Hart trophy soon-to-be-winner should be the standard, obviously. I just mean that this team is skilled enough to win it all, but they're inconsistent. And so if we just had That Guy to bail us out when we absolutely needed it, there'd be no stopping us.

Agreed.

I think young teams are more prone to inconsistent play, but the difference between yesterday and today is mind boggling.
