Telling Stat #1: Jusse Saros led all goalies in WAR (wins above replacement) this season, winning 7.78 more games than an average, replacement-level goalie would have. Markstrom, on the other hand, finished 77th overall with a -0.52... meaning an average, replacement-level goalie would have won us half a game more than he did.
Telling Stat #2: Jusse Saros also led all goalies in goals saved above expected, saving 46.7 goals more than the amount that were expected to go in against him. Markstrom placed 77th overall in this one too, allowing 3.1 more goals this season than the total that were expected to go in.
