Ullmark playing much better lately. Save % has climbed to .898, so similar climb to Swayman's .893.
I maintain that Ottawa is not a goalie graveyard, Dorion just brought in backups or damaged goods and called them starters, while playing behind a young rebuilding team. Talbot being the exception who had a lot of injury issues that year. He's the one that should have been brought back short term. Any sane Ottawa fan knows Dorion was a train wreck.
It's ironic that Dorion spent 7 years failing to solve goaltending and one of his last moves turned out to be the worst UFA contract Ottawa has ever handed out (regardless of how Korpse does in Boston), while SS came in and solved it with his first big move.
I'm curious if there is truth to the rumor that Korpisalo had mask sightlines fixed and laser eye surgery this summer. When he was signed in Ottawa, they propped his double hip surgeries up for why they felt the outlier season after 2 very poor seasons was who he actually is. I never really bought that and that didn't pay off for year 1 of the deal, but the eye surgery seems plausible as a factor for his improved performance this year.
