As a comparison, if Flames goalies had a .916 save percentage, we would have allowed 24 less goals so far (over 27 games.)

I'm told that changing the goal differential by +6 usually means 1 extra win. Assuming the GF stay the same and your calculations are correct, this would mean 4 more wins. Eight extra points would put the Flames on pace with Minnesota, LA, and St. Louis. The failures in net this year are HUGE.
