Default Single game save percentage

Quick note. Reimer saves one of seven shots. Unstoppable. Single game sv%=.857

He played fine and let in one unstoppable shot.

So many times people refer to sv% for a single game. My ask is to please stop the reference to single game sv% as meaningful.

I will supplement with a game where Kipper let in two goals on 18 shots where both were bad pinches by the D that led to unstoppable 2 on 1s

Save percentage over the course of seasons can be looked at as more meaningful (that is, more statistically significant) but in a single game is much less so.

This is one stat that when people quote on a single game basis disappoints me because it really is frankly not significant

That is all
