2nd or 3rd????? This is going to be a fun year. Either I will have to eat shiet or I am going to have a lot of fun. |
I assume you meant Steve Mason as to who Howard would mimic in his "sophomore flop".
Steve Mason:
08-09: 61 games played, 33 wins, 20 losses, .916 save %, 2.29 GAA
09-10: 58 games played, 20 wins, 26 losses, .901 save %, 3.06 GAA
Jimmy Howard:
09-10: 63 games played, 37 wins, 15 losses, .924 save %, 2.26 GAA
10-11: 63 games played, 37 wins, 17 losses, .908 save %, 2.79 GAA
Granted Howard's numbers slipped a little, but he's no sophomore flop by any stretch. I'm not annointing him, I'm just not condemning him based on his performance this year.
