There are 30 other teams that have done this. The only other team that technically didn't was Atlanta, who only existed until 2011. There's no way the Flames have had the worst save percentage situation, one that could can blame on defense quality or activation, that entire time.

You're wrong. It's extremely difficult to blame bad save percentage entirely on the defense/coaching when its over 5 coaches, 4 GMs, 9 years, about about 50 different defensemen.

Look at Robin Lehner. He has put up 92% during 6 seasons already (albeit some of those seasons have small amounts of games). Most of those seasons were behind terrible defense in Ottawa, Buffalo, and not Chicago.

Guys like him have been available too, so that's the frustrating part.


Really, if you look at Rittich's numbers except the florida game he is over 92% on the season, he hasn't been the problem it's our inconsistent team in front of him and a lack of offensive production, we need to be getting more than 1 or 2 goals in a game, end of story
