Let's be honest, many people actually think that they're winning trades/signings where the goalie they receive from the Sabres is actually good. Many are blinded to think that because the goalie posted an above average save percentage on such a bad team means they are elite goalies. But then there's the question. How in the world are all competent Sabre goalies since Miller all posting such fantastic stats on the Sabres and then even if they go to elite defensive and possession teams their stats can't even match the stats they had with the Sabres?
Look at Chad Johnson. Flames were ecstatic to get him, and thought he would be posting elite numbers with the Flames because he already had great numbers with the Sabres (And they also thought Elliott was going to be elite because of muh advanced stats with St. Louis). While Johnson had a fantastic hot streak at one point this season, I have to say his play for the most parts was better than with the Sabres yet his stats were way worse. What gives? I digged in further and realized Sabres play a style that limits high danger chances, and since they allow so many shots in general this massively inflates he goalie's save percentage.
This goes for basically every team who has "Terrible defense" and goalies posting great numbers. Don't be fooled by their numbers alone, it doesn't mean they'll suddenly become elite on great defensive teams.
