And just for the record, for those who complained about Hellebuyck's performance tonight, I don't ever wanna see you hold it more against him if he has a good game SV% wise but "didn't make that big save" late in a tied game or whatever.
In terms of how much a goal against decreases your chance of winning, the highest impact letting in a goal can have -- in either a tied game or when you're up by one -- is a reduction between about 15% to 50%, depending on whether the goal was scored one second in or with one second left in the 3rd period. In that sense, we can weight how "non-clutch" a failed save is.
The impact of all three goals against Hellebuyck, COMBINED, didn't even add up to .02%; and honestly it's probably not even that high, but I'm going with numbers I can defend.
So yeah, if one is gonna gripe that his numbers were objectively bad this game, that's fine, that's absolutely cool. "You do you", as they say. But understand just exactly what it's going to betray, if you then later say "well I don't care that Hellebuyck had a .925 this game, he shit the bed when the game was on the line so that one goal against is all that counts" down the road.
