Right. That’s the point. It is as much as anything a list of goaltenders by quality of their team.

The Flames goalies have a high likelihood of winning because they are playing for a good team.

What is the use of the table?

(I know full well that ‘to evaluate actual Points vs expected’ is in the direction of a good answer, but it was presented simply as ‘these goalies have the easiest starts’.)
