Tretiak in 1981 stands out.

In the final two games, against their biggest two rivals (Czechoslovaki and Canada), he lets in 2 goals on 54 shots.

Across the tournament, he posted a 0.947% and 1.33 GAA. No other goalie had a SV% over 900 or a GAA under 2.0.

The Soviets were stacked then, but it's a great example of a having an all-time great in net boosting the play of the whole team.
