Big fan of the stoic katana sheathing celly.

And their 10-6-12 (.357) in one goal games is 29th in the league.

Some luck I'd say sure, but then I'd also say some goalies are much better than others in shootouts.

Year to year performances in the shootout are fairly inconsistent. There really haven't been any goalies who have stood out at being particularly strong in the shootout - or particularly weak, over the long run.

And, really, the biggest problem for the Leafs in the shootout this year is less their goalie, and more their inability to beat the other team's goalie. They have 5 goals in 25 attempts this season. But, again, that's something that hasn't been particularly consistent season to season.

That record doesn't match that winning percentage.

Winning percentage, yes.  Points percentage, no.

10 wins out of 28 games is 35.7%.

So it's accurate, but not really useful? Well that seems like an improvement for SAP I guess.

Oh, okay.  Really, while that's a stat paraded as evidence of a poor record of winning one-goal games in general, it's clearly and most significantly evidence of a poor record in OT/SO in particular.

Mostly, yeah. For the record, they're 4-6 in 1 goal games that end in regulation - not great, but not awful either.
 
Results for one-goal games fluctuate from season to season because goals are pretty luck driven. Last night, if Rielly's one-timer hit the left of the post instead of the right of the post, are we having this conversation?

For example: Vancouver earlier this year, banked a lot of points on one goal games, but I don't think anyone is confusing them as a good team.
 
Hope last night's game was the start of a hot streak for Andersen.  Really need him to get on a roll again like he was earlier in the season.
