, ,

Against his share of what goalies usually saved against his opponents, Scott Wedgewood was 0.5 saves under at home and 1.7 saves over away in 2026-27, 1 game against 4.

Method

  • Expected is what the opponent allowed goalies in its other 2026-27 games, plus 0.0 for the home team (half the league’s home edge for goalies that season), nothing at a neutral site, scaled to his share of his team’s goalies’ saves in his games, 91%.
  • Each expected number is then fit to the season’s games: a game bears out about 100% of the difference the model predicts.
