Seeing Osgood there did not surprise me but did make me sad.

pnep, thanks (as always) for sharing the data so readily. No surprises in seeing Vernon, Fleury and Osgood near the top of the first table (most times upset in the playoffs).

If I can make one more request - are you able to show these tables (underdog wins and/or upset losses) as a percentage of the qualifying series (ie underdog wins, divided by the number of series where they were the underdog)? Some of the names near the top are surprising (ie Lidstrom with the most upset losses ever - that might be literally true, but it's also a reflection of him playing so many series on strong teams over the course of his career).

One of the other big suprises - Brodeur has far more appearances than I expected on both lists (underdog wins and upset losses). He has a reputation of being such a steady, reliable goalie. I would have thought he'd have far fewer appearances on either list.

if every series had an underdog, the combined list total become almost how many time you won or lost a series, player like Lidstrom-Brodeur just got involved in a giant amount of them
