The goals saved above average number for each of them was in the 4.5 range at 5v5.
Rittich was slightly better in high danger and medium danger, Kuemper was much better in low danger.
Seems pretty close to me...not really “let’s spend a 1st to upgrade” range.
And the PK numbers were significantly better but that isn’t necessarily repeatable. PK relies a lot on system and is a small sample size (400 minutes of PK, vs 4000+ minutes at 5v5. ) So I put a lot more stock in the larger sample size for sure.
