Tristan Jari has an 863 save percentage, but wait, there's more to that context, a lot more.

Morning to you, good.

Wednesday morning, I'm Dan Kovach of each of DK. Pittsburgh Sports.

This is daily shot of Penguins.

It comes your way bright and early every weekday. If you're into football and or baseball,

I also offer daily shots of Steelers and Pirates in the same place that you found this.

Before you freak out, yes, I know, Jari's actual save percentage is 9-11, which is good for 11th in the NHL among qualified

goaltenders. But the 863, a wholly different figure, is the one that leaps out for me.

That's his save percentage against high danger shots. And I'm going to explain what a

high danger shot is, because I think there's a lot of misconception about that whenever the subject

arises. It's not, oddly enough, Alexander Ovechkin firing a one-timer from the left dot. Although there's a lot of danger involved in that, the way this specific statistic is compiled,

it's based on nothing other than a certain location on the ice.

And we're talking blue paint and a few feet forward.

In the hockey dialogue, that would be your low slot.

And the nice thing about the statistic being summarized that way

is that it takes all of the subjectivity out of it.

Because whether it's Ovechkin shooting from that left dot

or Noll Achari shooting from that left dot,

all that stuff goes out the window.

Plain and simple, spot on the ice.

863 save percentage.

Fifth best in the National Hockey League among qualified goaltenders.
