The trouble with such data is that the goalies who play a disproportionate amount of games are also usually really good.

It's also hard to figure out what's meaningful and what's coincidence. For example:

In 10 of the last 12 years, the Stanley Cup-winning goalie headed into the playoffs having played less than 60 regular season games. During that span, only two goalies — Jonathan Quick and Martin Jones — have reached the final having played in 65 or more games.
