Some reasearch about goalies based pretty much on statistics, attributes and traits (mostly big games). Its done from both GHL and CHL top 5 goalies on sace percentage and performance. Only goalies with minimum of 20 games played were included. After name first big games trait and then side notes if something catches eye. Decided to take CHL along with GHL because its easier to spot differences on attributes and unbalances inside overalls. GHL SV% 1.M.Argall(87ovr) (Bulldogs) 93,4% Stable 30yo so experienced. Not the biggest goalie around with 175cm and 74kg. Low endurance(44) and athletic(76) 2. K.Cutter(94ovr) (Prairie Stars) 92,7% Stable Played in best regular season team in whole league. 3rd most games in league(73). 3. O.Lång(91ovr) (Minuteman) 92,7% Nervous Best regular season team in East. Medicore positioning(82) and athletic(84). 4. M.Twitty(92ovr) (Steelers) 92,6% Stable Low endurance(66), but still clear 1st G with 57 gp. 5. N.Gut(91ovr) (Duhawks) 92,4% Anxious Low spirit(68) but experienced 35yo. Performance 1.

Right handed goalie with low endurance(66) and clearly best attribute reflexes(97) and spirit (99). Goalie on team that was on relegation playoffs (W) 6. A.Jaillet(88ovr) (Battlin Bears) 76 Per Heroic Low endurance(54) and spirit(55). Slightly bigger goalie at 195cm and 97kg CHL SV% 1.

Otherwise balanced. Team RELEGATED to IHL. 5. A.Arvizu(75ovr) (Gorillas) 72 Perf Anxious Strong overall and reflexes/spirit to CHL. Well its rather difficult to make conclusion only from goalies, because usually team succes had great influences to both stats in both leagues. From big games trait there wasnt any indication that would support it has massive influence. But this is regular season only so you should approach this strongly that in mind. For example Lång did clearly underperform his regular season sv% (-2,3%) and performance (-4) and he is nervous. When in the otherhand Battlin Bears goalie Jaillet (heroic) came only bit short from his regular season stats in playoffs. Overall wasnt clearly the biggest factor but still from this we cant compare them because more important is what ovr keeps inside it. In CHL there were 10ovr differences on top 5. Still this is very raw reasearch with very few data and from only one season. Still my own experiences have been every season that goalies with best minor things and good traits has outoerformed overall and even reflexes/positioning/athletic. Biggest factors for good results has been size and big games trait. But its only one managers coclusion. I also believe there could be something that supports players streakiness like there are potential and greed. For sure goalies are very much different creatures so any experiences that could support anything are usefull

Yeap and this analysis is very thin so it probably has many leaks personal preferences and trials are still probably the best diameters.
