1.Thomas
2.Loungo
3.Kiprusoff
4.Brodeur
5.Vokoun
6.Theodore
7.Miller
8.Hedberg
9.Roloson
10.Hasek

The 35+ goalies to play 55+ games and sport last years's league average save percentage:
1.Thomas
2.Luongo
3.Brodeur
4.Kiprusoff
5.Roloson
6.Hasek

Only six goalies have managed that feat in 12 seasons.

It seems like a very big risk to me. I think this move was a bad bet by Treliving if he was looking for a goalie that can carry a starter's workload and give league average netminding.

You've quoted the number of 35+ goalies that managed a league average save percentage. But you provided no context... how many 35+ goalies didn't manage a league average save percentage? Did 35+ goalies do worse overall than younger goalies in this regard?

Without context, your attempted point is meaningless.
