Over on Fanlax a poster said Will Mark has an 87% rating on Lax Reference for excess saves.  I'm not familiar with it but he said something like it's the amount and type of saves a goalie makes vs the avg or something and Will Mark is at 87% which is very good. Any one else familiar with this? Is it about how if u face more shots it's harder to keep a higher save percentage which I believe is definitely true in any sport with anything yet others don't think it means nothing.  That's why in certain sports u need a certain amount of say passes for a QB to qualify for certain records.  If u have a limited amount then ur percentages can be inflated as it's harder to keep a higher percentage the more passes u throw or the more saves u make.  Which I mentioned will mark making 23 saves out of 40 shots on goal is more impressive then someone making 12 saves on 22 shots on goal. I feel like it's almost commons sense it's harder to keep a percentage up the more shots on goal but maybe I'm wrong idk.
