Visentin has gone 14-19-4 with a 3.30 GAA and .901 SV% with Portland (AHL) this season. The 2010 first-round pick (27th) will have a tough matchup in his first NHL game. At this crucial part of the season, Visentin is not a good option.
Visentin has gone 14-19-4 with a 3.30 GAA and .901 SV% with Portland (AHL) this season. The 2010 first-round pick (27th) will have a tough matchup in his first NHL game. At this crucial part of the season, Visentin is not a good option.
Visentin, 21, is 14-19-5 with a 3.30 GAA and .901 SV% with Portland this season. With regular starter Mike Smith sidelined with a lower-body injury, Visentin will backup Thomas Greiss tonight vs. Pittsburgh.
The Coyotes were smart to take Visentin in the first round, knowing they would probably lose Ilya Bryzgalov to free agency. Last season he posted a 2.52 GAA and .917 SV% for the Niagra IceDogs, establishing himself as one of the better goalie prospects. Expect him to take over between the pipes in a few years.
