The defence rests

From Saturday's Globe and Mail

Much of the Ottawa Senators' recent woes have been attributed to porous goaltending. Last year, when they met in the Stanley Cup final, they were ranked only four places apart overall defensively in the NHL. This year, they are 19 places apart. A year-over-year statistical comparison:
