It's a stat derived from goals allowed vs. quality of scoring chances. Both of those numbers, in this case, are based on a much larger sample size than nine.

I like QS (Quality Starts) and RBS (Really Bad Starts) because they actually do treat individual outings as just that.

Whereas this number is, in fact, based on a sample size of nine. (And it reduces every game to a single ternary value, good/bad/indifferent, which means that all the relevant data
within each game is thrown away.)
Funny how you use the ‘sample size’ argument when it suits you, and totally ignore it when it does not.
