Samsonov is, arguably, one of the most polarizing goalies heading into playoffs.
He will have to be the best version of himself versus the Boston Bruins and, at least, equal the performance of his counter part in the Bruins net.
Athletic goalie who is, by far, at his best when he allows the play to develop in front of him and doesn't over react to what's happening around him.
When he's on he's plenty athletic enough to make desperation saves. Above average quickness in all categories. Focus and preparation can range.
Last ten game segment before playoffs resulted in 6-2-0-2 record - paired with a 3.21 GAA and .896 save percentage.
