Just a note for the advanced stat gurus here - you lose people when you jump straight to xGA/60 etc when rating a player. The only thing that matters on ice is actual results, like GA/60, so start there. That’s the fact. Now dig deeper with advanced stats to evaluate the actual number - do they suggest that performance is representative and sustainable or not.

Remember that stats are useful for supporting the drunk but the drunk is the only thing that is real.
