I think you know the answer to that one too.
Let's just put it like this, if KK had more games like last night in the rest of the season he wouldn't have been bagged on all year. And the Cory of the last two years really isn't comparable to the Cory that was a top puckstopper before that. He's basically been average at best this year, KK below average. It just so happens the W/L record doesn't reflect their level of play because newsflash you need more than a goalie to win.
I've noticed this even last year when Kinkaid was good. He looks better after he sits for 4-7 days than when he's constantly playing. Even last year, he'd have a great game after coming off the bench after a week, then we'd play him the next game and he's getting destroyed.
Kinkaid had a good season last year, probably the best of his career, which is why I backed bringing him back and re-signing him, yet he had 5 more regulation losses than wins. Does that mean that he's better this year and that he was AWFUL last year?
People put way too much into goalie wins anymore.
If you're gonna give a seminar on why Marty was a legendary goalie, are you gonna spend 75% of that session talking about WINS and beating that word into everyone's heads? Then maybe a few other minutes talking about his shutouts and cups? Is that really what you want to be the convincing factor on why Marty is going into the HOF later this year, because of all his wins? There's seasons that Lundqvist had a better winning percentage than Marty (some of that is probably shootout aided, which has been around his entire career and less than half of Marty's), so is Lundqvist also on par with Marty because of that? I already gave the 07-08 Nabokov comparison.
Because if I was giving the seminar, I would spend very little time talking about his win totals and how many wins he had. If I was gonna delve into his wins, I would spend more time talking about individual games that I felt that he won by himself, or the wins that personally showcased him, more than the fact that he won almost 700 games.
