Message: [QUOTE="wgdsr, post: 4552947, member: 7179"] i just don't make any of those assumptions. like all-in says, it's a function of a number of things, and one thing you can say is mark has put together 2 good years so far where he was at. the better comp/inferior d cuts both ways, it's a wash. one influence i can imagine is if you watched a goalie get a lot of work in a game, and make a lot of saves even if a bunch of goals went in... you're not likely to walk away saying a loss was on the goalie, even at 45%, 50, 55 whatever. and he probably had some terrific saves in there because of the # of shots. but if he has the mental makeup that a goalie needs, his performance won't drop just based on volume.
