    Elite goalies trust process, not stats

    Buffalo Sabres backup goalie Chad Johnson knows what the numbers say about his play.

    Statistically, Johnson has been a worse goaltender this season than he was last season with the Calgary Flames, and he's played well below the standard he set in Buffalo two seasons ago.

    Johnson is 2-9-3 with an .884 save percentage after he was 18-15-1 with a .910 save percentage for the Flames last season and 22-16-4 with a .920 save percentage for the Sabres in 2015-16.

    He said he believes he's playing better now though.

    "People have been like, 'Oh, you are having a [bad] year, [bad] year, [bad] year,' and I'm like, 'Well, actually, for me personally, my game is a lot better than it was; more consistent this year than it was last year,'" Johnson said. "The results just haven't been there."

    As someone who is a goalie and has done some goalie coaching as well, I really love this article. So, so true.

    A lot of analysis/fans love to dig through Wins, SV%, GAA, etc, etc, to comment on a goalies recent play, but there is so much more to it than that. A lot of little technical things make a good goalie. It's not always about fancy stats. Some good goalie quotes in there, too. Nicely said, guys!
