Jhonas Enroth a very good NHL starter?

[Chfan]

He's seriously really good.

 

[Bosswally]

while Enroth has been very good recently I think people are giving him too much credit, Buff's D has been fantastic lately and teams while getting shots are not getting a lot of good chances, most shots are either wide or into his chest, and when he hasnt gotten good D (aka when Beniot and the mess are out) he has let in goals,

As a Lightning fan, I can say I'm conditioned to fear him. He's had some stellar games against us. And not just this year.

 

[Spinkis]

Always played great for Sweden and he seems to put it together for Buffalo. I hope he can keep the #1 job in the future.

He's definitely earned, just based on the wins he's compiled during this recent stretch (his stats are coming around, too). Neuvirth was playing lights out up until his injury, but he never had the offensive support to get wins.

for a small goalie, he's certainly got the right goalie coach in Buffalo. I wonder how much of Enroth's success can be attributed to Irbe maybe teaching some small goalie tricks?

I'd bet he learned a whole lot more from Miller, in his years backing him up, and Corsi, who was the Sabres goalie coach until this season, than he has from Irbe in just the last few months. Irbe certainly doesn't seem to be hurting anything, though. Both Neuvirth and Enroth have been pretty darn good so far.

Like what!? *disgruntled Vancouver fan*

Better than Miller

I miss Enroths 5-hole.

Enroth has said in interviews that Miller taught him about the importance of preparation and attention to detail. For example, Miller showed him how to customize and care for his equipment for optimal performance.

and Irbe is teaching him how to run over his pads with his truck.
