Quoting: Xspyrit
Bridges between Melnyk and Turris are completely burnt. No chance Turris plays for Ottawa again until Melnyk sells the team (Turris will be out of the NHL by then)
Numbers don't tell the whole story, particularly when you play on a rebuilding team. I have been trying to find a way to demonstrate that for years but I think the most efficient one is simply this :
Brian Elliott 2010-11 in OTT/COL : 0.893 SV%
Brian Elliott 2011-12 in STL : 0.940 SV%
Your "analysis" only shows that other goaltenders are capable of doing other things, not relevant at all. You are pre-supposing that Edmonton's defense is miles better than Anaheim's just because of their position in the standings, when this isn't the case at all. Edmonton is the better team because of better offense and better goaltending.
Here's a comp between Gibson and Koskinen:
Past 2 years shots against/60
Gibson: 31.08
Koskinen: 32.70
Past 2 years 5v5 shots against/60
Gibson: 31.07
Koskinen: 32.34
Past 2 years 5v5 HD shots against/60
Gibson: 8.78
Koskinen: 8.50
So Koskinen faced more shots overall, more 5v5 shots and nearly as many 5v5 HD shots. Koskinen wasn't benefitting from a better defense, that's for sure. With that out of the way, lets look at how they performed:
Past 2 years save percentage
Gibson: .904
Koskinen: .910
Past 2 years 5v5 save percentage
Gibson: .916
Koskinen: .915
Past 2 years 5v5 HD save percentage
Gibson: .814
Koskinen: .833
Gibson has worse results than Koskinen despite a slightly lighter workload.
