The way I see it is this: One night he lets 1 very very weak 5-hole shot get past him for a goal, and another time another puck squirts through his 5-hole where his D-man bails him out.
Since then, he's made plenty of 5-hole saves, but lets one in on a point-blank deflected shot.
That's improvement in my book--same with the wandering issue. One game he goes questing, next game he has the bungee cord on (to Quote Olczyk). Both that and watching some of the skaters go from turning the puck over to keeping the thing on a string shows that they're learning and adapting, rather than a Wile. E. Coyote exercize in futility like last year.
All in all I won't herald Crawford as the second coming of Roy, but I like what I see; an improvement from last year, continuing improvement and adaptation game-to-game, and some chemistry with the D. I think that's all any of us could have asked for coming into this season.
