One thing that's mildly interesting to me is that Hasek has few garbage time goals and it had little impact on his GAA. He also fares the worst with 3rd period tie/lead management (this also shows up in Canada Cup '87 where he surrendered a 3rd period tie, he gives at least one of these up in the '88 Olympics, he loses a tie game with seconds left in the '91 Canada Cup to Finland, his only loss in the '98 Olympics was with a 1-0 3rd period, he gave up two goals in ten seconds in the 3rd to lose to Russia).

I started compiling data on 3rd period performance, tied, and with a 1 goal lead. I've finished Hasek but I don't think I'll get anyone else done. But since we're talking about this I may as well drop the data here.

Data is excluding 1991-1993 and 2008, just the seasons for which he was the starter. Hasek's overall playoff GAA in these seasons was 1.96.

Hasek tied in the third period: 534 TOI, 17 GA, 1.91 GAA
Hasek with a third period one goal lead: 378 TOI, 14 GA, 2.22 GAA

Yes, Hasek's goals against were a little higher with a one goal lead. The difference between 2.22 GAA and 1.96 GAA over 378 minutes is about 1.5 extra goals against.

Hasek's team was 25-28 in playoff games that were tied at some point in the third, and 33-7 in playoff games in which they led by one goal at some point in the third.

Games where he allowed the opponent to tied the game in the third are below. His team was 7-7 in those games. Which I guess is about what we would expect from games that were tied late.


Overall? I'd like to have numbers from other goalies to compare, but Hasek's performance in these close 3rd period playoff situations basically matched his overall playoff numbers. Even the slight underperformance in holding 3rd period leads is basically all caused by the 2007 Anaheim series, when he was 42 years old.

Yes, Roy had an advantage there. From 1985-86 through 1994-95, Montreal had PP opportunities against at a rate of just 86% of the league average. Roy took that advantage and rode it to four sv% titles and a 2nd place finish.

The Devils from 1993-94 through 2013-14 had PP opportunities against at a rate of just 82% of the league average (a greater advantage over double the period of time - statistically, this is a staggering difference), and with that advantage placed 3rd, 3rd, 4th and 5th in the NHL in save percentage.
So you think beating Peeters, Casey, Liut and Essensa for SV% titles is better than being 0.003 behind Hasek in a Hart season, and being behind two guys playing for Trotz and Lemaire coached teams, that played fewer minutes than Brodeur did on the road?

I think beating the entire NHL four times by margins as much as 7 and 8 points over anyone else is more impressive than that, yes. Are you saying it isn't?

How the actual f*** are guys like Ryan Walter playing 5 games out of 20, René Corbet and Pre-Prime Patrice Brisebois (!!!!!!!!!) raised as defensive difference makers?
1. Walter played 21 games in '89 playoffs, you're confusing the years.
2. How is Brisebois being listed as part of the top-4 making him a difference maker? I literally just listed the top-4s they played behind in each run for comparison's sake. And '93 defense is meh at best, and I have stated as much.
