And Greening got his 19th assist as his Senators trounced the isles. :-D

Scrivens with more accolades at the AHL level.

Quote from: Toronto Maple LeafsThe American Hockey League announced today that Ben Scrivens of the Toronto Marlies has been named the Reebok/AHL Goaltender of the Month for March. Scrivens was 6-3-0 with a 1.40 goals-against average and led the league with a 0.952 save percentage and three shutouts as the Marlies closed in on a division title.

Quote from: Toronto Maple LeafsInjury Report: Scrivens figures to get the call again Tuesday for Toronto with both James Reimer (upper body) and Jonas Gustavsson (lower body) ailing.

Looks like another Miller-Scrivens clash tonight.

Don't you mean Miller-Scrivner? ::doh::
In other news, Scrivens not being tested too much, but looking good as Toronto leads 3-0 after one period.

Yeah, I caught that. Each time Jeanneret says his name this game it has been pronounced incorrectly and a few different ways. He did have what looked like a good save on Pominville's breakaway during a Toronto PP.

Toronto was unable to hold the lead and lost 6-5 in OT. Scrivens mishandled the puck behind the net a handful of times, but didn't give up a goal on those flubs. I thought he was very strong in the 2nd against an all but absent Toronto defense. Definitely some weird calls from the officials, including a huge, lengthy scrum (I think everyone but Miller was in the crease) leading to Buffalo's tying goal late in the 3rd. It's hard to tell how the official saw the loose puck, yet didn't seem to call the goal immediately as it crossed the line. The Buffalo announcers also questioned a tripping minor called on Scrivens (which led to a Buf PPG), since his poke-check hit the puck before the  player's skates. I have my patented Red-tinted glasses, but I think he played pretty well and isn't to blame for their loss.

I don't see any bias from your Red-tinted glasses in that analysis. I am a Buffalo fan so watching the game was interesting because each team at any given time was having its share of mishaps. I was holding my breath and shaking my head when Scrivens mishandled the puck a few times. Once, he passed it directly to Pominville. That was fairly egregious. I don't remember any such mental errors during his days at Cornell. However, the tying goal was absurd. Objectively, I hate when officials do that to goaltenders. I don't care if it's a team playing against Cornell. It was a mess. I think you are right when saying that Miller was the only one not in the Toronto crease. There is no way that the official could see the puck at that time. Scrivens said something to the official after, I am sure noting what a mess it was. Scrivens had a generally solid game, not nearly as uneventful for his play as the game he had in Toronto on Saturday, but good nonetheless because Buffalo did not and could not convert on the handful of errors that he did make.

That was a beautiful goal.  Great hands and vision, most players would have that kind of backhand attempt blocked or they wouldn't get it on goal.

BTW, Matt Moulson is now in the top 10 for goals per game by an Islander at 0.39 per game currently: Attaboy Matt!

Mike Bossy, Pierre Turgeon, Pat LaFontaine, Bryan Trottier. That's some elite company.

For comparison, that is not that much less than Joe Nieuwendyk's career .45 (though Joe was .64 after his first three seasons).

That, sir, is because you weren't around his first year. He had this one terrible play where he went behind the net to grab a puck, fell on his ass, and the opposing player scored an empty netter. He learned to stay in the goal after a while.
