There is no secret to the Thrashers&#8217; recent success.
It&#8217;s all about the goaltenders.
The Thrashers have won three straight, two by shutout, with Johan Hedberg and Ondrej Pavelec minding the net. The two of them have stopped a combined 106 of 110 shots in wins over Detroit, Carolina and Philadelphia. That&#8217;s a save percentage of .964.&#8220;When [...]]]></description>

<p>The Thrashers have won three straight, two by shutout, with Johan Hedberg and Ondrej Pavelec minding the net. The two of them have stopped a combined 106 of 110 shots in wins over Detroit, Carolina and Philadelphia. That&#8217;s a save percentage of .964.</STRONG><BR><BR>&#8220;When they are on top of their games and they feel good about themselves, they want to play,&#8221; Thrashers coach John Anderson said. &#8220;We are blessed with two real good goalies right now.&#8221;</p>
<p>Remarkably, both rank in the top 10 in the NHL in save percentage. Hedberg, who earned his 12th career shutout Saturday against Philadelphia, is tied for second in the league with a .932 save percentage. He trails Buffalo&#8217;s Ryan Miller by just .001 point. Pavelec, who posted his second career shutout Wednesday in Detroit, is tied for eighth with a .921 percentage.<BR><BR><A HREF="http://www.ajc.com/sports/atlanta-thrashers/look-no-further-than-218317.html" target="_blank">Click here to read the full article</A> &#8211; By Atlanta Journal-Constitution<BR><HR><BR></p>
