I would anticipate that they have higher GA than xGA

I have no clue about xGA/GA but I agree entirely that save percentages get skewed by quality of chances versus raw shot amounts. And not just quality chances - quality chances given to quality players.
Markstrom was rightly pulled and his effort on the 2 on 1 was not good. In fact, it almost looked like he was so unhappy with the 2 on 1 and the defence against it that he decided not to bust his own back getting over on what was a sure goal anyway. Not a good thing but in a way almost understandable after being hung out to dry a lot this year.
