I think on goaltenders we tend not to blame them when a goal is scored on a high danger chance, especially a breakaway. But in reality, even a breakaway should be stopped about 70% of the time looking at shoot out goals.
Both goaltenders were very poor last night, I think the difference was simply the skill of the AV players.

I am curious what in-game breakaway success rate is v. shootout success rate. It seems to me that players score at a higher precent on breakaways that happen in the flow of the game v. shootouts. But I can't seem to find the stat anywhere.
