How about we look at it another way.
Rewatch the 13 goals over the last 2 games, and with no model whatsoever, ask yourself ‘should he / the average goalie have stopped that’?
The xG for those games were 3.21 and 3.02
Did those games against the Canes and Avs look like 3-2 games to you?
Because that’s what the fancy stats say they were, and that’s why some people are questioning the tending
Be honest
Are those what nice tight 3-2 games look like?
Or did they look very different in terms of skill and execution from both sides
