Devils place top 10 in save percentage
The Devils’ netminders collectively produced below-average goaltending last season, finishing with a .910% save percentage compared to the league-average .912%. A drastically better goaltending season is on the horizon.
Keith Kinkaid carried the Devils to the playoffs with a .932% save percentage down the stretch, and Cory Schneider returned to dominance by posting a .950% playoff save percentage.
If Schneider is indeed back to his old form, the Devils’ gain an elite goalkeeper who possessed a career .925% save percentage until injuries struck at the end of 2015-2016. Throw Kinkaid into the mix, and the Devils’ are stacked with two elite-upside netminders.
