You can certainly compare Markstrom’s stats to other goalies in the North
There also is some correlation having watched the games between Flames D and his stats
The Flames advanced stats look good because they often have a high volume of shots from the perimeter and high danger shots that aren’t dangerous.
Those stretches with low sv% don’t help either. When the first shot goes in, there is no subsequent shots like when the goalie stops the first one. Kind of kidding, the Flames did allow a lot of grade A chances that hung goalies out to dry

Goals and save percentage could be identical by division and you could still have drastic differences in quality of competition.
