I see it often posted that one players' goals are more 'valuable', or 'clutch', than another players' because of the in-game situation the goals were scored in. E.g. Player scores the GWG in a 3-2 victory for Team A over Team B; is the 3rd goal scored by Team A more 'valuable' than the 2nd goal scored by Team A? The 3rd goal couldn't have been a game-winner without the 2 goals that preceded it.
Continued:
Player#1 and Player#2 both score 5 playoff goals in one post-season; none of #1's were GWGs, while a few of #2's were (regular time and/or OT).
Their goal/point totals for the end of the playoffs are equal. Was Player#2 more valuable?

Also related: If a goalie finishes a game with a .940SV%, while allowing only 1 goal, say, from center ice, did the Goalie have a 'bad game'? If the goalie's team won 2-1, or lost 1-0, does it make a difference?
