He has less than 35 career games he's a prospect be more realistic.
Here's a comparison:
Goalie A: 46 games in age 22-23 seasons, 0.910, 2.58 GAA, 10.97 GSAx
Goalie B: 33 games in age 22-23 seasons, 0.912, 2.74 GAA, 9.76 GSAx
Very very similar numbers.
Goalie A is Akira Schmid, goalie B is Hofer.
Schmid's numbers are also tanked by 2 occasions on which he had to start both nights of a back to back, which is something Hofer has never had to do. Those 2 starts, including one after he had made 44 saves the night before, have tanked his GSAx by about 5 goals, and his save% by 5 points
