I'm specifically speaking in terms of a goalie with 3-4 years in Junior/College and looking at their save % as a whole. Perhaps I did a poor job indicating that in its entirety from the get go.



This also falls into part of what I'm referring to from a drafting perspective. The flames seem to always like picking "higher" than most when it comes to Goalies.
Ah, that makes more sense, I wasn't completely understanding. That's tough too though because a lot of the time when it comes to drafting a goalie you will only have 2 years of major junior experience to draw from. I think in those instances you just need to look for improvement and development from year to year.
