Upcoming transaction for the Montreal Canadiens: We better understand why goaltenders are in high demand

Here are the curtain-raiser statistics:

It's quite clear that the goaltenders are stealing the spotlight, and the Canadiens are still opportunistic in their attack.

We better understand why all three goaltenders are in high demand and why Kent Hughes is taking his time. Not only does he want to make the best decision for the future of the club, but he also wants to get the best possible return, given the statistics of his goaltenders.

As for the offense, it's a good thing that the defensemen are productive because the numbers would be even lower. Players like Josh Anderson need to find a way to score goals regularly.
