.915 isn't significantly better than .913, so as usual you're living in your own alternate reality. Hell it's not eve significantly better than .909.
You have serious issues with facts.

The facts didn't slap me silly since you said "significantly better" career number and yet pickards career gaa is actually BETTER AND HIS S% is marginally lower.
These are facts.
Please explain how you think saying something is significantly better when it's factually not proves you're right?
You can't even look at a stat (that you brought up) and acknowledge the truth.

It is when one guy has played over 200 games in the NHL (many of them as a starter) and the other was an AHL back-up last year. But I guess that accountant who played 1 period for the Blackhawks must have super amazing numbers.
Facts are facts. Lehner has better numbers as a starter compared to the others who were back-ups or AHL goalies. It's painfully obvious but you can't admit it which will never change.
You have serious issues with accepting reality but here it is in black and white.
Lehner:
GP: 219 (Half as a starter for a poop team)
GAA: 2.82
SV%: .915
Calder Cup and Butterfield at 20
Sparks:
GP: 17
GAA: 3.03
SV%: .893
Calder Cup and Butterfield at 24
Pickard:
GP: 87
GAA: 2.78
SV%: .913
AHL Back-up last year, poopty numbers as a starter in 2017.
McElhinney:
GP: 186 (most as a back-up)
GAA: 2.86
SV%: .909
35 years old, not getting better coming off a career year
Accept it.
