he got his 4th shutout of the season the other night in a 1-0 shootout win. He stopped 4 of 5 shooters in the shootout.

his stats for the year are:


#  GOALIE     GP MINS  W  L SOL SO GA  GAA  SVS  SV%  A PIM

31 Eddie Lack 36 2182 20 13  3   4 75 2.06  950 0.927 2  4
That's dangerously close to Cory's best season:

#  GOALIE     GP MINS  W  L SOL SO GA  GAA  SVS  SV%  A PIM 

35 Schneider  40 2324 28 10  1   5 79 2.04 1014 0.928 0  4

:shock::shock::shock:

Any guesses why people aren't being as enthusiastic about him as they were with Schneids when he started to get his act together? I mean... he's really becoming something and we got him for absolutely nothing. I'd say that's more of a reason to fuss than a 1st rounder actually panning out. Isn't that what they're supposed to do?

Lack got his 5th SO today in a 1-0 win that everyone should have watched on CBC. :emot-parrot:

If this isn't stress, the definition has been changed.

The Manitoba Moose, in the throes of another offensive funk, scored all of five goals in their four road games in the last week.

Goalie Eddie Lack didn't seem to mind that dance on the razor's edge, posting a pair of 1-0 shutouts -- one via a shootout last Wednesday in Rochester and another in the more conventional 60-minute way Sunday at Ricoh Coliseum.

The pressure was all the more intense Sunday because the Toronto Marlies held a 7-1 edge in power plays in the AHL North Division battle.

"Right now, we're relying on our goaltending to help us win games," Moose coach Claude Noel said, stating the obvious after his team squared its record 2-2 through the first four games of this 11-game road trip. "With the production of our offence, that's just the way it's got to be right now.

"The thing we have to do better is we can't allow the other team to have as many power plays as they're having. That puts a lot of stress on your goaltender and your defence and your checkers."

In making his sixth straight start, Lack was far busier than he was in Saturday's 3-1 setback here.

"I had a little bit more to do today (35 shots faced versus 17), played a bit better and had a better focus, maybe," he said. "It was a really important game for us. Have you looked at those standings? It's crazy. We need every win we can get.

"And I wanted to win today against Gustavsson."

Fellow Swede Jonas Gustavsson, down on a conditioning assignment from the Toronto Maple Leafs, had the better of it Saturday, when it was the same as Sunday -- the busier goalie was the better one.

Sunday, the Marlies did a lot of sniffing around Lack's net, crossing the line into his blue paint with impunity all afternoon.

"My D did a good job in getting them away," Lack said. "I'm happy for that."

It was the rookie's fifth shutout of the AHL season, pulling him to within one of Wade Flaherty's team record of six in one year.

His goals against average of 2.08, save percentage of .926 and minutes played, 2,361, are all among the top half-dozen of regular AHL goalies.

In the 12-plus periods they played so far on this road trip, the Moose have failed to score in eight of them.

And in their last 12 games, they have come up with one goal worth of offence eight times.

"That's how it is right now, something we'll have to play through," said Moose left-winger Bill Sweatt, who scored Sunday's only goal at 5:04 of the third on a Kevin Connauton rebound. "Maybe it starts next game we'll start scoring three, four, five goals a game again.

"For now, these are the kinds of games we'll have to play."

Sweatt doesn't believe his teammates are squeezing sticks.

"Maybe sometimes after a play, some sustained pressure and we get good chances, maybe some guys are thinking, 'Geez, just give us a break or a bounce here,'" he said. "I think guys have kept pretty good with it.

"If we had been frustrated from yesterday and let it carry over today, it can get into your game. We didn't let that happen."

With only four shots in the first, the Moose then had 26 over the final two periods to at least increase the odds of some kind of goal.

"We came out soft and slow but after the second period started, everybody kind of woke up," Sweatt said.

Just a quick note on Lack's stats in regards to the all Moose's individual records for each category:


#  GOALIE     GP MINS  W  L SOL SO GA  GAA  SVS  SV%  A PIM

31 Eddie Lack 39 2361 21 15  3   5 82 2.08 1026 0.926 2  4

Record        59 2945 28 22  9   6 -- 2.04 ---- 0.922 5 20

With 20 games left Eddie could beat Schneider's Win's record, Wade Flaherty's Shutout record, Drew MacIntyre and Johan Hedberg's Save % (Schneider didn't qualify in 2008-09 due to games played, not sure what the min is, but he only played 40) and MAYBE Fred Brathwaite's assist's record (he also had 1 goal that season making his point total 6 on the season.) Lack doesn't handle the puck nearly as much as Brathwaite, and there are no players that take it coast to coast anymore, so I doubt that last one will be broken. the others, however, stand a great chance.
