Well a team's success begins and ends with the play of their goalie, and although the rest of the team was commited to blocking shots. Halak's 131 saves on 134 shots during the last three games of the series, won it for them without question.
The same can't be said for the goaltending on the other side of the redline however.
Again, not trying to take anything away from Halak but how many of those 134 where actually good shots on net? that is what counts, yes in a way the team needs to try and block shots, but the reality is even more that the team's job is to make sure that the opposing team does not have good shots on net and what is done is easily stopped by the goalie. Once you get rid of the crap and semi-crap shots then you can compare the # of shots on net.
