Re: '18-'19 NESCAC season
The difference is the quality of shots [in addition to the raw #] that Grant faces every game vs. what Han/Goldstein face. Nothing against either goalie, I'm sure they are both very good [but the fact neither has emerged as a true #1 tells me a lot]. I think if they faced the kind of shots Grant faces every game, I'm guessing their #'s would not be so rosy. Diddo for goalies that play for teams like Plattsburg, where not only is the league they play in weak with the outcome of the game never in doubt, beyond that, the team and D in front of them are so solid that rarely do they face a high quality scoring chance, and when they do, typically there is no rebound to worry about [where nearly all D3 goals are scored] as the puck gets cleared out of harms way quickly.
