Virgil Ligriv an unsung backup

[Tape-to-Tape 298]

Joey Boucher spoke with the Titans media team this week and was asked who he thinks on the team is deserving of more attention. He spoke about backup goalie Virgil Ligriv who is performing very well and is setting up to take over for Alex Pepper who will play his last games next season. Virgil Ligriv has played to strong numbers and has won 7 of his 8 games this season. He has stopped 93.6 percent of his shots faced and allowed an average of 1.62 goals against in those games. His seasons best game was a shutout against HC Davos Dynamo where he was only required to make 10 stops. Helsinki is in a great position being second place in the European conference. They are hoping to make a deep run in the playoffs and maybe even surprise many and win it all. Without Virgils strong games they may not be in the position they are in now.
