Looking at the goalie stats (source below), team save% is 0.883 this season compared to 0.901 last season. Both are pretty bad, but assuming 28.6 shots against per game it will mean just north of an extra 42 goals against over the course of a season. That's a lot of wins and losses being decided.
I think there has been some real exciting progress this season, the power play being the obvious stand out. Would be fun to see where they'd be with just some average goaltending.
Interesting enough, at a glance the mean team save% seems to be 0.901 this season according to this:
