He did win the best goalie honours playing on one of the worst teams in the league regularly facing 40+ shots and many many quality scoring chances per game. He singlehandedly kept the Sharks in many games they had no business being in, and kept them out of the cellar. Showing that being an AHL backup is quite superior to the Asia League's level of play, even at his advanced age :PAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3761321691079178688.post-30578218209858917992009-03-30T19:13:00.000-05:002009-03-30T19:13:00.000-05:00This post is awesome, great job Chris.
