What I said however, is that what matters is a win.
A 3-4 loss followed by a 6-0 win is not as effective as a 3-2 win followed by a 6-2 win - even if the GAA in both scenarios is 2.00
I'm done with this thread. It seems my point is being wholely and entirely missed by people that just want to beat the shutout drum.

Honestly your point isn't being missed but I am failing to see what your end goal is with your arguments. No goalie is perfect.
The best goalie on earth right now IMO and for years to come will be Shesterkin. And he let in about 4 weak goals on Saturday. Does that mean he isn't a great goalie? No.
Martin brodeur, Hasek, Roy, Kipper, all elite goalies had off games.
Heck Kipper had off years. Not just off games.
Markstrom has been one of the best goalies this year just enjoy the saves and wins when they come.
