How can you argue "despite facing the most shots" when discussing save percentage? The whole stat is based off of shots........

It's a stat based off saves and shots. So you can't say "despite facing the most shots". Well, you can, but it's dumb.

He has that save percentage because he faces that amount of shots, it's a propostorous statement. It's like arguing why water is wet.

Notice save % goes up as a goalie faces more shots?
