Mah bad. Confusing stat to track for a tender...
I've considered EN to demonstrate how well a goalie plays in close games. It's an imperfect stat like +/-

But the more EN the more likely a goalie will crack under pressure.

Again a very imperfect stat.

On the other hand you could knock the GAA down knowing that the goalie hasn't played X full games.
