If you're creating with your mix of scoring chances, low percentage and high danger to a level that puts you in the top ten the shooting percentage is somewhat irrelevant.
As you said earlier the bigger issue is save percentage, they're chances against is down, the save percentage should be going up.

A lot of people have been saying save % is irrelevant but I think for a team that isn't giving up as much and allowing a low volume of shots it is a huge deal.
The shooting % thing does make sense when you shoot a lot more because not everything is going to be a real HDCF.
Maybe that pops up a bit and we finish more chances by making the goalies move side to side a lot more instead of trying to pick corners from the high danger areas? Make that one extra play to make it more dangerous if that is even a thing.
