I've been wanting to do more with situational special teams goaltending save percentages. The first step, of course, is getting the data into my database.
However, looking here:
http://www.nhl.com/ice/playerstats....=G&country=&status=&viewName=specialTeamSaves
It shows Sean Burke (Carolina) with 446 even-strength shots faced, 123 power play shots faced, and 31 shorthanded shots faced (600 total).
However, Burke didn't face 600 shots that year with Carolina - he faced 655 (even NHL.com agrees on that).
So where did the missing 55 shots go?
If the league's totals don't balance, I'm going to have a hard time taking the results seriously.
