+3 Goalie Steals Game - 2 (Vladar 1, Markstrom 1)

Total impact is zero goals ... average goaltending

Vladar one poor game, one average, two stellar
Markstrom six poor games, seven average, three great

But only 4 of 21 games where goaltending positively included a game, two against Pittsburgh ironically.

I'd be interested to see what the offensive output was in those 14 games with average - great goaltending vs the poor goaltending.

It feels like most of the time the Flames have a big scoring game, the goaltending falters. This makes me feel like much of that surrounds the system breaking down more than the goalies just being plainly bad in those outings.
